By: Olivia Howard on Monday, February 25, 2013 Hey y'all! How are you doing today? I'm a weird mix of encouraged, discouraged, tired, joyful, motivated, and unfocused. But I'm excited, because I know that the Lord will work in my life today, just as He works every day, whether I recognize it or not. I'm still thinking about last Sunday's sermon. The phrase, "I am a new creation" has been my motto all week. Yesterday's sermon was very good also, but honestly, I was thinking about the previous week's sermon during a lot of this one! :P So encouraging though, because after last week talking about how justly we will be judged, this week covered how Jesus has paid for our transgressions. Wow. As I showered this morning, a song came on "Point of Grace" radio on Pandora, and a line jumped out at me. I don't know the song, the artist, or even the exact phrase, but it went something along the lines of, "I want the world to see Your sacrifice on my face." I need to act, speak, and look like I've been given real life-- because I have! This is my goal today; smile! On this blog it probably looks like I smile all the time, but I really don't. I can be pretty grumpy, irritated, or just too tired to move my face in day-to-day life. But, that's the old me, right? Through Christ, I am better than that! My sister Emma has been the most amazing example of this to me. She has seemed to have the joy of Christ in her since she was a tiny baby. Not just the normal, "Oh, she's a happy person" type, but a strength and joy that so obviously comes from her relationship with God. The kind of thing you see and you want that relationship too. So these are my Monday morning thoughts, as I drink my huge water bottle with lemon and vitamin C. This outfit was a simple one, and I was kind of surprised when I put it together that I hadn't worn it before. Or, if I had, I hadn't blogged it. :P It's just monochromatic browns with oatmeal accents. I wore this scarf on the inspiration of a commenter who asked why I don't wear scarves more. It added the last bit of warmth I needed yesterday and served as a headcovering during church (just wrapped it around my head like the ladies in the 50's when they drove convertibles ;)) without giving me hat hair. Also, although you can't tell from these pictures, it finished my outfit with some much-needed sparkle. :) Sweater: F21 Scarf: Bought in Montmartre, France Skirt: Thrift Store Boots: Shoe Carnival Tights: Idk? Pearl Earrings: Gift Pearl bow hair-clip: Charity shop Alrighty, better get started on lunch. Have an awesome day!

Summer officially ends today, and we're well on our way to shifting into the next season - probably the best of all seasons: Fall!! And this year, Fall will most definitely be extra special around here. Last year, Fall was a rush of flying out to North Carolina to find a new place to live, and head back to AZ to pack, then fly back to our new home - unpack and start getting settled in - the week of Thanksgiving, Fall flew by so quickly, we barely had time to enjoy it, but we are grateful for the move back east. Living here in North Carolina, we will really be able to take in natures beauty, with leaves changing color, the crisp fresh air and even family coming to visit in November (can't wait!!) and I'm sure you too can't wait for all the goodness Fall has to bring. In case you need a little nudge to get you in a "Fall state of mind," here are 14 inspirations to get you started... 1. Bring the outside in with fresh cut Fall leaves - source 2. Get your soup on! It's soup season! - source 3. Yay! Boots & Sweater weather!! - source 4. Go on a Fall bike ride - source 5. Must try: caramel apples from Donna Hays - source 6. Slow sip some apple cider, called a Jack Cider Cocktail - source 7. Have a Fall picnic in the park - source 8.Take long Fall walks - source 9. Time to fire-up the fireplace! - source 10. Gather pumpkins!!! - source 11. Convert your summer she-shed into a pumpkin shed - source 12. Welcome Fall at your entry - source 13. Slow down for a Fall drive - source 14. And have long talks out by a lake - source This weekend past, the hubs and I ventured off to a nearby park for a nature walk, and I can just sense it is going to be as picturesque as a Pinterest picture when the leaves start to turn... Salem Lake Park in September - photo by (hubs) Jeff Davids Thanks for stopping by and bring on the reds!! Welcome Fall!!
