it's the little things in life...

...that make crazy, stressful, and chaotic weeks seem not so bad.  

I love being able to find the little beauties amongst the rubble and chaos and focusing on all of the blessings God has brought me.

Like sharing a latte and pink lemonade over mine and Kylee's final hoorah before she left.  We went to the cutest cafe downtown and chowed down on none other than....CHEESE!  Oh, our love for cheese is indescribable.  

I got to spontaneously see this little bundle of joy this week!  It has felt like forever since Auntie J got a big hug and kiss from her adorable niece.  Uncle D filled in for a last minute baby sitting sesh so I was able to squeeze in some time after work and visit her.  Despite the blurry picture my heart was filled with warmth as she squeals "CHEESE" for the camera.  

Uncle D knows how to tucker her out!  We played ball, rode around in her little pink car, and then he decided to make her dizzy....that poor little thing.  

Getting the sweetest email from my amazing husband.  "You can do it, you always do and I am proud of everything you do. Don't give up on yourself and hang in there," That's just a snip it -I love how he believes in me and encourages me along the way. My favorite part was how he signed it:

D. R. La Fuze -The Luckiest Man Alive

Having the best mom come and help out in your class AND bring you an iced nonfat pumpkin spice latte...she knows me too well.  I swore I took a picture of it, but my phone must've decided it didn't like it because it is no where to be found.  Even though it has been 90 degrees here, we still find ways to make fall alive!  

  Starbucks really knows how to make that oatmeal!  I'm off to Arkansas for my little sister's wedding, and I was blessed by getting in the Starbucks line just in time.  When I left there were 20 people in line?!?!  

Things are about to get a little bit country over here!  Toodles!
