today i am THANKFUL

Thankful.

That is all I can say right now. 

It has just been one of those days that I literally just want to jump up and down and do my happy dance. My job has not been so great lately, but the last week has been fabulous. On top of that I get to spend the next three days with some of my co-workers that are more like family.

AND even better than all of that, I finally feel like doors are opening for certain things in my life. I have been praying and researching a couple of different things that could really change my future and today I had my first meeting that is leading me in, what I feel, is the right direction. Luckily, my mom also has great connections so that helps a lot too. :)

I know we are called to praise God even on our bad days, and I truly try my best, but days like today make it SO easy. I am so thankful and so excited to see where things go!! It is amazing where God leads you when you simply give turn things over to Him!

Vaca Bliss!

There are some days/weeks/months that my job drives me to pure insanity, and then I see the light at the end of the tunnel...VACATION!!!

The last couple of days have been pure bliss. Sleeping in past 6, going to the gym whenever I feel like it, not changing out of my pajamas. Yep, pretty much decided I could do this vacation thing year around!

I have also had the chance to spend time with two amazing friends that I don't get to see nearly enough!

On Tuesday I met up with the fabulous Ashley to do a little exploring in the super cute town she now lives in! Highlight of the day was a quick stop in this little shop owned by the most eccentric, fabulous and downright hilarious lady. The shop was filled with hundreds of paintings she had painted herself, and let me just say, she is mad talented...and did I mention hilarious!? We left this shop learning new things about our local "culture", how to angle men vs women when photographing them, and with the promise that if we ever needed advice on love, well, we know where to find her!

I had a blast exploring, taking pictures, window shopping and just catching up! Can't wait til next time!
