yogayogayoga

i've finally jumped on the bandwagon...i'm a new believer in YOGA!

i've done the whole running, going to the gym, attempting to lift weights routine trying to add some physicalness to my life. but yoga is so much better! it's relaxing and a super workout all at the same time. i tend to lose my balance easily and wobble at the ankles, but some day i hope to be like gumby and do crazy yoga moves.

and i want to go to the beach just to say i did yoga on the beach...and have a rockin' bod like this chick.

"so we cared for you. because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well."

1 thessalonians 2:8

and another thing

did i mention that i have too much to do over christmas break? because i do. and this is how i feel about my ever so long laundry list of things i need to do today. yuck. and yes i did take this picture via photobooth on my mac. lame-o to the MAX i know...don't judge

"but whoever loves God is known by God."

1 corinthians 8:3

hello cupcake

hello friends. it's been a while!

christmas break has been wonderfully busy. i love using the time to catch up with old friends, discover new dallas restaurants, take lots of walks, figure out life after college, and rest without worrying about some test or project looming over my head.

need another present to add to your christmas wish list? here's an idea...a mini cupcake maker that takes a whopping 5 minutes to crank out delish cupcakes. smartplanet sells this little kitchen tool, along with other eco friendly kitchen gadgets and eco solutions. my kinda shop!

"praise be to the LORD your God, who has delighted in you and placed you on the throne of israel. because of the LORD’s eternal love for israel, he has made you king to maintain justice and righteousness.”

1 kings 10:9

christmas plans

i can't wait any longer for christmas break. my goal is to soak up every sweet minute of it because this will be my last 4-week long christmas break. ever.

(via uniform natural)

so here are some things that are on my list to do over break...

1. sip on a pearl latte at the pearl cup while reading harry potter...or narnia...or the holes in our gospel...or girl with a tattoo dragon...eek, too many!
2. make a stop at the new h&m at my beloved northpark mall
3. explore the work of local artists and businesses at deep ellum's outdoor market
4. attempt to conquer my fear of making caramel by trying this recipe
5. stock up on groceries for my last semester of college here
6. attempt to fill the 50+ pages of my sketchbook before the january deadline
7. brave the cold and try to make it around the whole white rock lake, all 9 miles and all

i'll probably be adding to them as i take multiple study breaks. what do you plan on filling your holiday with?

"love and faithfulness meet together; righteousness and peace kiss each other."

psalm 85:10
