Friday Five

-
Well it's the last Friday of 2012!
How are you spending it?!
Obviously I'm not doing much...just being lazy and then working later.
 
But here are five things I'm loving today:

 
 
Hue corduroy leggings!!!!
I've always seen these at Belk but never really thought about buying any. But on Wednesday, they were on sale for a really good price, so my mom and I decided to buy some to try them out. They are by far the best pants ((BESIDES VS SWEATPANTS OR YOGA PANTS)) I've ever owned. They are super comfortable but look dressy. They're perfect. I actually thought about doing a whole blog post just about these because I love them so much.
Last winter, I didn't really ever wear pants because I wanted to wear boots all the time and skinny jeans aren't that comfortable to me. So I wore leggings all the time but it was hard to have enough shirts that were long enough to wear with leggings so that was a problem.
The awesome thing about these is that they are thick and have POCKETS on the back! So you don't have to have a long shirt with them. They look like regular pants, but they fit and feel like leggings.
Perfection.
(I want a pair in ever color.)
 


Elvis Christmas music!
I like to listen to Christmas music all year, but I especially have to during Christmas and in the days after. I honestly suffer from post-Christmas depression every year, and always have, and the BEST thing for that is Elvis Christmas music.
 
 

Our Christmas tree!
Yes, it's still up and will be for a while. I adore the smell of Christmas trees, and I do firmly believe that decorations should stay up until AT LEAST New Year's Day (but preferably later because January is just so boring and gloomy).
 
 

Pink Chiffon lotion from Bath & Body Works.
I didn't like this stuff when I first smelled it, but one of my mom's students gave her some of the shower gel for Christmas, and I smelled it again and fell in love with it. So while me and Ashley were out shopping the semi-annual sale at Bath & Body, I got a little bottle to keep in my purse.
Love!
 
 
 
 
Kathie Lee and Hoda!!
I absolutely love their show, and this morning they showed a montage of their "best of 2012."
I just love them.
That's all.
 
 
 
 
Hope everyone enjoys the last Friday of 2012!

Our Love Story

  Our Story This is how it goes... For several years, they would glance at each other across the sanctuary at Oak View Baptist on Sunday mornings. They knew each other, but they didn't really know each other. Beth went to High Point University, and Drew attended North Carolina State University. Years passed and sometimes they would say hey, but were usually too shy to say much else (yes, Beth Burroughs was shy around boys she thought were really cute). Even when they both accompanied the youth group on church camp trips, they didn't say much to each other. After college Drew moved back to High Point to start work and Beth moved to Boone to get her Master's at Appalachian State. The timing wasn't right yet....... When Beth was in her first year teaching at Southwest High School (2015), she sent Drew a Facebook message (ah, the era of social media) asking about apartments because she was looking to move out of her parents' house. She was also looking for the conversat

First #WeddingWednesday Post!

So I've been posting our story on our "The Knot" site. I've been posting in increments since I wanted to include the full story, but haven't had the time to sit down and type the whole thing! Also, I think people would rather read a little at a time... and it keeps everyone on the edge of their seat!! lol This was the first 'installment' I posted: For several years, they would glance at each other across the sanctuary at Oak View Baptist on Sunday mornings.

Things Unseen

-
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 (NIV) 17  For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.   18  So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen,  since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. Lately I've been getting weighed down with the issues of the world. Yesterday I read 2 Corinthians 4:8-18 in my daily reading book. In these verses, Paul talks about being pressed but not crushed, perplexed but not in despair, persecuted but not forsaken, and struck down but not destroyed... if you are a follower of Christ. The troubles of the world may weigh on us, but they will not overtake us. As we receive grace and sustenance for each day from God, we should become more thankful, which goes along with what I've been intentional about this week - writing a list of things I'm grateful for and thanking God for them. Focusing on these things will help us to see the world through His eyes. Verses
