Friday Favorites--Summer Style

I have had two weeks packed with favorites and I am SO thankful that I am listing them as gifts.

We've been having so much fun that I haven't done a whole lot of anything else...but hey, that's what summer is for! : )

So here is a picture list of my Friday Favorites, in no particular order:

93. The beach on my birthday (this past Monday) was absolutely stunning:

94. my sweet husband

who went out of his way (which included taking the day off of work) to make my birthday so special

95. Getting a lot of time with my girly girl....

96. and getting this new favorite picture of her above--it just captures HER....and it makes my heart and soul smile a huge teethy grin.

97. Painting our own pottery creations with the Keepers of the Faith girls group that I lead for my daughter and her friends....and having my son and his best little buddy join us. 

98. That my kids decided all on their own to keep a Summer Journal of all our activities....

99. that we've done so much already that we can't remember everything to write down

100. that they put their hearts and souls into decorating their covers with everything that reminds them of summer (notice all the beach camping stuff!)

104. My son

is having his first really fun normal warm summer in his whole life without a PICC line, without being in the hospital, without epi pens, without being sick

all. the. time. 

Oh Lord!  How I pray that THIS:

REMAINS....

105. And last but not least--my Lord and Savior

who loves me always

who never grows tired of me

who never gives up on me

who gives us reprieves from being sick

who blesses us in all things both good and bad

who has given me everything I listed above and so much more

thank you!
