Summer Nights...

We spend lots and lots of hours at the softball fields every summer.

Yesterday was no exception.

And I don't mind spending so much time there because it is with people whom I love a whole lot.

p.s. Yes, that's sweat. I'm not jealous.

Happy Friday {FACES}

I love seeing all the different kinds of faces God made.

And it's Friday.

And the weekends almost here.

Annnd it's sunny.

I have the cutest baby brother everrrr.

I adore my buds-since-birth friend. And her craaazy faces.

My sister snapped this....and I must say one of the best pictures {EVER} of Addy.

Weddings make you blissful.

I am loving the bokeh and the wisps of hair flying around Katie Lynn.{HAPPY FRIDAY}!

Ramblings In The Month of March

Crazy Love. I finally read the book. And after the Bible this is my favorite book. One of the biggest things God used thru this book was realizing, "these choices and decisions I make, are they for MY glory....or for GOD's"?? I love how Francis Chan isn't afraid to speak the truth and convict people. He doesn't dress what needs to told up so people can still feel comfortable where they are in life. Or complacent. We should always be changing and becoming more and more like Christ.

I've known about Hillsong for a while (thanks to my brother's iPod) but never really liked them. I started listening to them a LOT more recently and I LOVE IT!!!!Snowboarding season is coming to an end. Sadly. But on the other hand it means spring is coming. Until next year my friend Katie Jones.

Some people can blow bubbles with gum and some can't. She can. Lisa lecturing the boys, about what I'm not sure. What a beautiful background.

Hellooooooooooo Hoffy ladies. Your expressions are priceless.

The countdown is on. SPRING IS COMING SOON.

Pursuing a humble heart

Sometimes I wonder why exactly do I want one? This whole "having a humble heart thing" is hard! So why again do I want one? Because God loves and favors the humble in spirit. And He is against the proud and haughty. If I'm not humble, I'm prideful. There isn't an inbetween.I ran across some comparisions recently comparing the proud/those who are humble. Here are a couple that stuck with me:

• Self conscious/Not concerned with self at all
• Feel confident in how much they know/Humbled by how much they have yet to learn
• Defensive when criticizied/Receives criticism with an open, humble heart
• Compare themselves with others & feel deserving of honor/Compare themselves to the Holiness of God and feel a desperate need for mercy

I have so far to go. But I'm so thankful God gives oppertunities so I can put into practice being humble and see what a blessing it really is. Because when I am proudful, afterwards I feel pretty rotten.

Pride is truly our greatest enemy.
