ahh...mexico

this time every year we go to mexico with a group of friends from phoenix. it is so relaxing. we had such a great time! the house we rent is right on the beach, there's just nothing better. and even though i had a bed to sleep in, i slept under the stars every night and woke up with the sun...marvelous!

the only time i left the beach was to go to the chicken stand in town...yummy! my favorite spot was on the balcony, enjoying the view. but i managed to enjoy the water, lay by the beach and go kayaking, too.

here are some pics!

my new summer office

so, we don't have a backyard...only a small balcony, but we are making the most of it...with our new table and umbrella. i worked outside today and it was complete bliss! you're going to find me in this spot often. the weather is so beautiful this week. summer is coming! I'm so excited!

liza jane

for the last week and a half i've been in atlanta helping one of my close friend, chrisit, with her high-risk pregnancy. she is doing really well and everything is stable...she'll be 34 weeks this weekend and she might even make it full term! yippee!
i went to help with day-to-day things. but i had so much fun just hanging out with her and her beautiful daughter liza jane. i went to help, but i think they blessed me far more than i ever imagined. God uses the people in our lives in such amazing ways. there's nothing better than some quality time with college friends. my heart is smiling.
