Good Friday + Links

(completely thought I posted this on Friday. I completely didn't. fail) 






Man, Good Friday brings on a totally new meaning this year. After just getting back from Israel less than 3 weeks ago, I have a newer, much deeper appreciation, for this holiday we call Easter.
      I was listening to this song this morning and it was absolutely perfect. I'd encourage you if you have a chance to listen to this song by Leeland: Via Dolorosa. It's one of my very favorites!

On other notes, I have some super fun links to share this week :)

~Jess and Samuel shared their gender reveal video. I'm so in love with her blog and her sweet family.

~Neely is having a blog sale! A bunch of Anthro jewelry and some fun purses/clutches

~Kara and Matt also did a super cute gender reveal video. Be sure to check out her blog too! :)

~Mary Kay's daughter Becca had her 12th birthday this week. Last Saturday, while I was working at the ziplines, they came in and celebrated her birthday. She wrote this post and I loved it! It also will give you a little peak of what I do at the ziplines :) Also, if you don't follow her blog, you should.  

~Neely is having TWO giveaways this week! enter here and here!

~Have y'all seen this video? What are your thoughts? Miraculous much?

~Ummm this dance video is legit. Please watch it.

Happy (Good) Friday!

Love,

Stop Kony: Kony 2012

I just saw this video last night. A friend of mine tweeted it. It need you to go watch it. Spend a little bit of your time today and watch this video. I had no clue who this man was or the extent of what is really going on. Please watch this and get involved. It only takes 30 minutes. 

For those of you who don't know, this video is about Joseph Kony, the #1 wanted man on the International Criminal Court list. He is the leader of the LRA (Lord's Resistance Army) in Uganda. He kidnaps small children and uses the girls for sex slaves and the boys for child soldiers. There is no excuse. This needs to be stopped. There are some ways you can help.

Sunday Randoms

~Monday night, Aaron brought down a group of kids from Evangel. We had a blast! too fun! games, stories, youtube videos, laughing, and a big dinner!

~This week, the weather has been miserable! Upper 30's was the high on Tuesday/Wednesday. We finally got some pretty weather the past 3 days! 70's and sunny. More like how fall should be :)

~We had a Cold Stone crew meeting yesterday morning. I made $10 for answering Cold Stone trivia questions :) score!!

~I lost my wallet Friday night. Loooong story short, I found it Saturday afternoon, after I had canceled my cards, and check Target, Starbucks, and the parking lots for it. I will be writing about that tomorrow! Cool Story.

~I've had 3 Starbucks coffee's this week. Good therapy right? :)

~I worked at the Ziplines yesterday night. About 8pm, I got to ride with a tour for the last 5 lines. It was dark, windy, and a BLAST!!! Seriously love the people I work with. It would be safe to say they are like big brothers!

~I've sold over $100 worth of stuff on Ebay this week! I'm cleaning out my closest and making money! Win Win!!

~Because I sold so much, I treated myself to a little shopping spree yesterday :)
