Life isn’t about waiting for the storms to pass;
It’s about learning to dance in the rain.

Broken

Today has been a rough day. I've had a lot to think/worry about and it's wearing me down. I need prayer. I need guidance. I'm continuing to have faith and giving it all to God. A few weeks ago Pastor Craig talked about going through a period of being broken so that God can use you for His will. I feel like I'm there. I'm waiting for God to show me what is in store next.

God is good all the time and all the time God is good

(even when we don't know what comes next)...

Reveal yourself to me, Oh Lord.

I'm thankful for friends and family who are always my encouragement and strength. God always provides and I'm resting on that promise.

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

Jeremiah 29:11

Sweet Puppies

Ok dog lovers this post is for you!

This is a tribute to all of you who love your dogs like they are your kids (because I do too)!

I apologize in advance for the quality of some of these pictures (taken w/ my phone).

This is hairy Rylee sporting an OSU hat!
Marley wasn't too happy about the hat Ryan put on her!

Marley asleep on our bed

Apparently Rylee enjoys my parents' fireplace.

When Marley needs attention she will let you know!

Rylee in her favorite chair!

Hanging out on our bed.

Rylee looks hilarious when her hair is short!

Both of them together! This doesn't happen every often (at least not sitting together where we can take a picture).

Share your favorite puppy pictures please!
