We've all been resistant to stepping out in faith. We've all let fear hold us back.
On this blog you'll find real life revelations and stories from an imperfect woman, wife, mother, and friend who lives with a daily desire to experience healing for where I've missed the mark, joy where I've felt lonely, to be fulfilled where I've felt without, and ultimately live the abundant and secure life that Christ has called me to. I want to live fearlessly for my God...trust in Him fully...and do what he's asked me without hesitation . I know I'm not alone and my hope is we can walk together, overcome our strongholds, and embrace a life unafraid as we walk with our Lord.

June Thus Far

Phew! Can you tell I have been busy?! :) June has been fast paced but awesome so far! They wedding is coming closer and time is flying! Here are some updates on my month :)

High School Graduates




Well my babies are all growing up! At the beginning of the month Nic and I and a lot of the other youth team members got to watch some of our youth walk across the stage and receive their diploma! A lot of them I have known for up to 5 years now. It is such an honor to be a part of their lives and they have truly blessed me in my years here in Boone. I am so proud of them and I can not wait to see what the Lord has in store for all their futures!

Our Last Wedding Shower





My sweet friends and bridesmaids Leslie and Christi threw Nic and I a shower at the beginning of the month! It was so much fun and we had a great time with all our friends and church family :) I can not believe that that was the last one. Engagement goes by so quickly!

Happy Birthday to ME!!



Yes it was my birthday this month! I turned 23 :) It was a very relaxed birthday which I appreciated. My parents came up the Saturday before for our shower and then after we all went to dinner to celebrate, Nic's mom and brother and his family came also. It was such a treat to have them there and my family too. My first birthday celebration with some of my new family :) How fun! Life is definitely changing but in the best way! On my ACTUAL birthday Nic took me out to dinner and a movie. Relaxing and wonderful! I had a great day with him! He also got me a gift certificate for a massage, I believe I will be taking advantage of that in the weeks to come. And as I look on my camera it looks like I forgot to take pictures of my birthday celebrations. Haha opps!

Meagan's Bachelorette Weekend!!





Well as you have heard me mention before Nic and I's great friends Frankie and Meagan are getting married 3 weeks before us, which is NEXT weekend! Well I got to spend a weekend at the beach with Meagan and the crew for her bachelorette! What a blast! We seriously had the best time and I catch myself still laughing over the fun times we had through out my days. She is such a blessing to me and I can not wait to stand beside her on her special day. I am so extremely excited for the time to be here! Meagan and Frankie, If you are reading this....I love you both so much!

Our new home

Yep that's right! Nic has officially moved into our new place! It is still a little messy in there and we are getting it together but it is the coolest and most wonderful feeling to know that it will be our home! Now we just have to make it look like a home :)

and last but not least....PIPER IS HOME!





We got our sweet little puppy this week! She has been amazing so far and I must say I believe we have the worlds greatest puppy. She is the most loving little girl and she is already spoiled to death. Yesterday she came to work with me and she never left my feet and she was not even on a leash. She loves to be with people and HELD by people. We spent the evening together too as I worked on organizing the new place, Nic had to work late, and we had the best time. We played and even napped together haha, I was worn out yesterday! Nic came to the new place when he got off work and found Piper and I both passed out on the floor :) We love her so much already!



But anyways! That is the jist of life lately! Lots of awesome and amazing things going on! I will try to keep up the blog a little better from here on out. Especially with the wedding approaching so soon! It is now less than a month away, 27 days to be exact!

Love you all..happy saturday!
