home again, home again jiggity jig

The last couple weeks have been a whirlwind: 
Finals week [cleaning, packing, cleaning, packing] I said goodbye to Fort Collins and some of my best friends. The boy and I drove 20 hours through the night to his lovely home in Sugar Land, TX. [his car is a manual] We spent 6 days with his family. [i love them] I said goodbye to Michael Brooks for at least 11 weeks. [lots of tears] I flew back to Denver. [my flight was delayed] Kara had her bachelorette party [so fun. so tired] And now I'm here in Colorado Springs attempting to get every little piece of my life for the summer figured out before June 3rd. [deep breath] 



June 3rd and 4th is the weekend of Kara's wedding and after that I am off to Granby for the summer. I'm excited and nervous, but more excited than nervous. You'd think I'd be getting pretty good at this summer away from my boyfriend thing, since this is our third apart, but each time I think about it, it makes me a little sick to my stomach. Luckily, I'll be busy enough to hopefully make it a little less painful. 

Through everything that is going on, I am mostly excited for a summer full of growth, new friends, and fun. I'm excited to see God show himself to me as a stable constant even while my heart is unsettled. I'm excited to live in a beautiful place where I can feel his creation praising him.

Instrument of Peace

I made these for one of the girls I meet with. I thought I'd share. They're all prayers that have changed my life. I'm thinking about putting together a book of all of them and asking others to join me. They're a bit difficult to read on here, but it's all inspired from Brennan Manning's Ragamuffin Gospel Visual Edition.
