I'm not usually a fan of country music, but lately some of it has been growing on me. I still remember the first time I heard this song. It was following a really special moment with the fella and he turned it up on the radio. I found it cute but a tiny bit cheesy perhaps? However, I liked hearing it at that time and after really listening a few times since then lol definitely not so cheesy anymore. So, we both agreed recently that this will be "Our Song".

He And I
One of the biggest changes in my life this year has been this ...
It seemed to happen out of the blue, though in hindsight I really believe that God decided the time was right and I was finally ready. I'm blessed because He knew exactly what I needed and even some things I didn't even realize I wanted!! I have done more learning and growing these past few months about everything ... myself, relationships, life etc.
I have learned that perfection doesn't exist and the most important things take work. I know that movies, books, quotes etc. are just glimpses at small parts of love and definitely not the whole bigger picture. I understand that communication, communication, communication is absolute key. I see that men and women are of completely different outlooks, so sometime you have to stop and try on their perspective to understand them better. I have learned that seeking advice from those who have many, many years of experience through both the good and bad and are still working at it today is usually best; but even then you still have to take that wisdom and figure out what works for you. I know that you both have to be willing to give and take. I am learning what LOVE really is and that way too often it is pigeon-holed as just a feeling ... it is so much greater than that because it is a daily choice, action, etc.
Honestly, there are too many words required to type. I must say though it is one of the greatest adventures, and remember with every great adventure there are always both ups and downs to reach the great outcome :)

Hitting the pavement ... err treadmill rather. I'm getting back into my morning running routine after way too long a break.
A REALLY Good Book
I have never been a big fan of romance novels ... except for the classics, such as the novels of Miss Jane Austen. I'm a sucker for stories about love, courting and romance without today's common vulgarity.
So, I was very excited to learn about Edenbrooke by Julianne Donaldson.

Finding pleasure in the simple things ... like receiving much-anticipated packages in the mail and books from my local library.

Favorite Find
I spotted these at Big Lots (the spot for unique finds) recently and finally decided to purchase them. I love the organic feel about them, lovely leaf shape and silver color of course.

Layla, she is my dearest friend and most loyal companion; she also finds it difficult to sit still for photos so you get this face.

No, I didn't raid the Lucky Charms box for these ... instead discovered a bag of these at a local shop and now they brighten up my cups of hot cocoa.
