A Little Bit of Home
This weekend was one of those bittersweet experiences. It was hard in that our family was together to celebrate the life of my Grandma Larson, who passed away this past Tuesday. It was a great time of getting to share stories about her and how she had touched each of us and brought us all together. It was also so wonderful to have all of our family together for a brief period of time. My family and friends have been such a blessing and I was overwhelmed by that realization quite a few times in the past 48 hours. It was just a really really good time to be together.
This is Grandma and Grandpa's barn that is just really cool looking and Ingrid's favorite barn shape. (She took the picture.) Every time I am at the farm I realize how much more I appreciate it and love being there.
Like mother like daughter? I think so! Mom and Ingrid discovered how similar they are when they came out almost completely matching this morning! We thought it was pretty funny.

Sweet Friend
Day 2-belated
Day two should have a picture of me and my friend Karen having coffee together, but I forgot to take the picture. Ok, I'm about to post a cool video, so I'm going now. So far, I'm not very good at posting daily, but I'm trying to catch up-right now.

One A Day(?)
Hello, hello. I have decided that maybe I'll try to take a picture a day to blog, and more if more exciting things happen that day. One thing that sticks out during the day, or perhaps has some sort of significance will be photographed and then I'll share it with you. Sound good? I'm not sure how this is going to go, but I'll give it a shot. Here's the first photo. Yes, peanut M&Ms. I love these things and would go so far as to call them my favorite candy. I try to keep it as rare a treat as possible so that when I do get to have them I remember how wonderful and special they are. That's all I've got today: I love peanut M&Ms.

Musical Shares-4
Dear friends who share a love for music, (or even if you don't love music)
This song is so solid! You need to listen to it and then go directly to itunes and purchase it. You hear? Good. You can maybe even skip the "listen to it" phase and just buy it. It is that good. The words are right on and it has a really nice build. The song is called "You're Beautiful" by Phil Wickham. Here are the lyrics:
I see Your face in every sunrise
The colors of the morning are inside Your eyes
The world awakens in the light of the day
I look up to the sky and say
You’re beautiful
I see Your power in the moonlit night
Where planets are in motion and galaxies are bright
We are amazed in the light of the stars
It’s all proclaiming who You are
You’re beautiful, You're beautiful
I see you there hanging on a tree
You bled and then you died and then you rose again for me
Now you are sitting on Your heavenly throne
Soon we will be coming home
You’re beautiful, you're beautiful
When we arrive at eternity’s shore
Where death is just a memory and tears are no more
We’ll enter in as the wedding bells ring
Your bride will come together and we’ll sing
You’re beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful
