TUMBLR.

Welp. I did it:

Seems like a whole lot of newness is happening in this little life of mine.  Felt like my presence in the blogosphere should follow suit.

If you have a link to this site on your blog/website, please (pretty please) update it with the new address.

It’s been real, WordPress. Thanks for the memories.

Spinning madly on and on and on…

Juliette

Juliette Paskowitz just “liked” my music on Facebook.  That, my friends, is pretty f#%@ing cool.

Can I be as crazy, bohemian, and beautiful as this woman when I grow up? Please?

Over and Under

Of the whelmed and pressure variety.  Trying my damnedest to transcend…

whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

make a home in it, haley:

Before the throne of God above
I have a strong, a perfect plea:
A great High Priest, whose name is Love,
Who ever lives and pleads for me.

The Tallest Man on Earth

Thankful for the sweet, imperfect moment I was able to inhabit as I listened to this song last night. Rainstorming, couch locked, head resting on a shoulder. Life is strange and messy and beautiful.

Like a house made from spider webs and the clouds rolling in
I bet this mighty river’s both my savior and my sin
Oh, my savior and my sin

double rainbow all the way

Take it Back Now, Y’all

Here’s a little video Mallory made of the tiny little house concert we put on for her birthday. Last Saturday was my most favorite day as of late.  Thankful for all my sweet friends, and for my sweet roomie.  It was good to celebrate her :)

More pics from the party to come… maybe.

Also! My Mom’s in town! Hence my absence from blogging. Back soon. Promise… maybe.

(Definitely)

Unswervingly

How overwhelmingly sweet it is to be reminded that God is not only Love, but also Faithfulness.  Perfect Love is casting out my fears tonight, causing me to be deeply thankful for it’s Faithfulness to my crazy, heavy, lonesome, tangled up heart. The meaning and beauty behind this whole “peace that passes all understanding” thing is settling into my chest.  I’m glowing. Certainly not bursting, but definitely glowing.

“We’re just like anyone else
We just want a little bit
Of sun for ourselves
And a little bit of rain
To make it all grow
Maybe a minute or two
To get lost in the glow of love”

Yeah, we’re haphappy

Are you so excited for this weekend?!  Hope your plans are as FANTASTIC as mine are :)  Even my not so fun, to do listy things will be done whilst donning a bathing suit in my backyard.  Success!

Can’t wait to celebrate Mallory’s 24th year, music from the 90’s with My So Called Band, and the good ole home of the brave on Sunday.  Sparklers, sundresses, jorts, popsicles, sun tans, food fresh off the grill, yard games, and red white & blue will ABOUND.
