Top 10

Top 10 things I have a weakness for:

10. Clean sheets

9. Longish/waves on a boy. mmmm.

8. Green eyes

7. New nail polish

6. A foot rubbing. ;)

5. People who make me laugh/smile

4. Anything to do with weddings.

3. Cheesy love songs

2. Cheesy love movies

1. Zac Efron- I know. Im lame. But, come on...if he loved Jesus, He would come pretty close to perfect for me. :)

Being Content.

You know what is super freeing?
Knowing that whatever you do, God already knows about it.
Every decision I make, He knows. He knows my every move.
You know what else is freeking awesome?

"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope."
-Jeremiah 29:11

So often, when I hear people use this verse, I am very quick to judge. I am so quick to look at that person and think what a cliche. "You are gonna use that verse again...?" "Way to be original!"
Wow, could I be any more of a jerk?
This is Gods word. Not mine. Not yours. Not His. Not hers. GODS! Praise the Lord that He has grace on me.
Back to the verse, I am so beyond grateful for this verse. His love is so perfect that He has everything planned for me. I can pray and seek and pray and seek that I am doing His will, but in the end, all I can do is run through a door that is open and stop when the door is closed.
For that I am content. I am content in knowing that as long as I seek the Lord and am walking with Him, He is going to make my path known. If my decisions involve others, then as long as I am walking with Him and they are walking with Him, the decision that is being made will be the Lords. Praise God!
Even if its not the outcome I want, Its Gods. Its what He wants for me. It just means that He has something better to come, not only better for me but better in the other light as well.
So, again, for that I am content. Content in knowing His plans are His plans. Content in knowing His love and His grace. Content in Him.
Enjoy His grace, peace, mercy and love.

Brides Bouquet


I am definatly attracted to anything that looks sweet, girly and southern. That means that pink, almost any shade, (yes, Blush and Bashful) is almost always appealing to me.
If you don't already know this about me, I LOVE weddings. I am on my life track of becoming and wedding coordinator. Right now, I am finishing up my Cosmetology school and I am working in the floral department
at a grocery store.
I want to start throwing in different wedding ideas here and there to show my passions.
Here is my favorite bridal bouquet.
It is so elegant simple. There is only one flower throughout the entire bouquet, and the pinks are so gorgeous.
I am slightly obsessed with theknot.com... You will most likely see a lot from them on my blog.
Enjoy these flowers.
Much love,
B

In the past 24 hours

I have:
1. Started and Completed my 2010 taxes all by MYSELF!
2. I have completed my Fafsa for the fall semester.
3. I applied for my summer job.
4. I scheduled my written exam for my state board.
5. I found out how much school I have left.

Thats all the super important things.
I managed to let the pollen get the best of me. :( Seriously, these allergies are going to kill me. I woke up at 4am this morning unable to breath and so I got up took to much medicine and went to school for all of 4 hours. I could not function. I came home and slept for about 5 hours, much needed and woke up feeling hungover. Awesome.
Now, I am going to try and get better so that I can be at school tomorrow physically and mentally and work all night around flowers that have pollen in them. YAY for loving a job that you are allergic to.

Have I told you guys yet that I am going to college in the fall?
Hmmmm...I think I will share that story soon.
Much love all!

I hate to disappoint. I hate to disagree.

I am a very independent person, yet so dependent on the approval of other people.
I hate to upset anyone, I hate to disappoint, but I am very vocal with my opinions.
But, its okay. Its okay to not agree with someone, Its okay to disappoint people. Are your expectations for other people or for your life from the Lord?
I live to please people, when I should be living to please God.
Am I disappointing God?
I need to start making my decisions, living my everyday life for the Lord.
"Let you speech always be with grace, as though seasoned with salt."
Hmm..God is good.

Good ole National Singles Awareness Day.

Oh how this holiday is very important to me.
The last valentines day I had was perfect.
This one too, is perfect.
I get to work all day tomorrow and spread the joy and love to all those husbands/dads/boyfriends who want to show there "whomever" how much they love them through a flower. I am all for it. I love it.
I also love being reminded of who loves me on this holiday. Yes, I am single. Very single. I haven't really been okay with that in a couple weeks, but today I was reminded how much my God loves me. Oh, how He loves me. He is jealous for me.
Nothing compares to His love.
No boy could ever compare to Him. To the way that He loves me.
The flowers that my God gives me, are 10 times better than any flower a guy could give me.
So, with that said, Happy Singles Awareness Day. (or Happy Valentines Day)
I love you. and so does He.

*1 John 3:16
"This is how we know what love is, Jesus Christ laid down His life for us and we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers."

A fabulous Life
