pumpkin patch!

Last weekend Mark and I went to the Kruger Farms pumpkin patch with my good friends Sarah and Andrew Fox.  We had an awesome time going through an extremely muddy corn maze, having tasty food and drinks, and hunting through the pumpkin patch for THE perfect pumpkins!  Mark and I finally carved our pumpkins last night so I thought I would share the adventure with everyone!   MUD. Mr. and Mrs. Fox Mark and I :) Muddy Chucks. YUM! Creating our masterpieces.  Aren't they so cute!  Mine is on the left, Marks' is on the right. I love doing all these fun things with Mark for the first time!  We are so excited to be spending the holiday's together, bring it on Christmas! :)  

ecclesiastes.

         So I suppose the good thing about reading the Bible is the closeness you realize you could have with God, our creator.  The bad side is that it tends to make me realize how far away from God I really am.  Confessing the fact that I might be feeling distant from Him makes me feel like such a small, small person...luckily there was an awesome group of girls to share it with tonight.          Have you ever sat there praying and just been thinking, why don't I feel you next to me?  Why do I feel nothing?  I think the last few weeks my mind has been being fed this constant lie, that He isn't here with me.  That God isn't in everything I see, that I'm not here for Him alone.  It's scary, because I started to really think it.  The last two weeks at church my pastor has been inviting people that need healing to go to the back where people were praying, or to stay afterwards, so that people can pray fo...

Its already here again, wow, this week went by super fast!  I can't wait for my fantastic weekend to start!  Class tomorrow morning, followed by pumpkin patch with Sarah and Andrew Fox and the boyfriend, Josh's birthday, twin's birthday and church!   This week's questions are 'short and sweet'!  You should do one on your blog and link the post in my comment section ;) I found this gorgeous Raggedy Ann at an antique shop in Sellwood,   Stars , it reminded me of my awesome childhood! 1.     I am             a lover of Jesus, a loving girlfriend, a nanny to three adorable children and someone you can count on  . 2.   I wish      everyone could experience the grace of God,  his awesomeness, and his undying love for us     . 3.   I like         spending time with Mark, the three wonderful people in my class and our discussions, traveling to...

Happy Sunday! Today has been great so far, coffee and breakfast out with my love at  Barista  and then on to  Lovejoy Bakers  for a delicious breakfast sandwich!  I even tried out my new tall boots with a cute little blue sweater dress (Mark even liked the outfit!) After breakfast we headed back to my place to work on some homework.  I haven't blogged about school yet at all so I thought before starting on my homework I would tell you a bit about it!  :)         I've been going to Eternity Bible College  up here in Portland since the last weekend in August.  Oh my gosh, I've already learned so much, its hard to believe I didn't know any of this stuff before!  I'm taking only one class, Bible Study Methods with Chuck Bomar and Justin Pederson, but it has proved to be just about as much work as I could handle this term anyway.  We are reading a book called Grasping God's Word, and I love it.  Justin an...

SO...I'm terrible at blogging, I decided if I do it every once in a while, maybe I'll eventually start doing it more!  I stole this from a blog that I secretly stalk ( http://thelittlethingswedo.blogspot.com/ ).   Lauren is awesome and a great blogger, she does this every week, maybe I will try to do it too ;) Ha!  I found this photo in my old archives of working with Mark Armstrong at PDR.  :) 1.     Blogging is          something I am absolutely terrible at, but would love love love to do it more     . 2.   A current fashion trend I wish I was brave enough to wear is      tall boots.  I actually purchased a pair and received them in the mail, but I'm a total wuss, and now I'm rethinking this purchase.  I think they are super cute, maybe I just need  Lauren  to give me free fashion lessons!     . 3.   My greatest accomplishment in life thus ...
