Currently: June
Reading… Not a Fan by Kyle Idleman. I just started reading it so I can’t say yet
if I would recommend it. However, it is
very good so far!
Smelling… Pumpkin
bread and waffles. For some reason,
there’s been this trend of our house smelling like either pumpkin bread or
waffles at all times. Today it was
pumpkin bread. But I’ve also lost track
of how many waffles I’ve eaten in the past two weeks...
Thinking… of the
blessing and power of prayer.
Itching… because I
sat outside for a few hours the other night and forgot that mosquitos like
me. But hey, at least I enjoyed the
beautiful evening weather and sunset :)
Listening… to All I Need by the Bontrager Family
Singers.
Eating… mashed
potatoes and tacos. And the aforementioned waffles. That’s pretty much what my menu has looked
like this past week.
Drinking… water, like
normal. Because I rarely drink anything
else.
Wearing… this new
red + white + blue necklace my grandma bought me. I can’t believe July 4th is
Tuesday! :O Looking forward to ice
cream, fireworks, and family time!
Experimenting…
with zentangle and water colored pencils!
I was pleased with my volleyball zentangle, but I’ve got a bit more
practicing to do with my watercolors.
Painting… my
dresser. I’m super excited to see the
lovely piece of furniture when it’s done!
It’ll definitely add lots of character and personality to my room.
Anticipating…
heading north to visit family in 2 weeks!
It’s been a while and I can’t wait to see everyone again.
Singing… The third
movement of Gloria by John
Rutter. It’s just so grand and fast and
loud and exciting and fun, although utterly confusing when 4 different parts
are singing “Amen” at different times, and in every time signature you can
think of. But it all adds to the
grandeur :)
So that’s what I’ve been up to lately! Happy July, friends!
What are
your plans for the 4th of July?
What all
were you up to this June?
I enjoyed hearing about what you've been up to! Are you thinking about the power of prayer because of my magazine? Hehe! ;) I'll let you know what I've been up to in my letter today or tomorrow! :D
ReplyDeleteHaha well no I wasn't thinking about your magazine, but now that you mention it, I might go back and re-read some of those articles since the topic of prayer is on my heart :) I can't wait to hear what you're up to in your letter!
DeleteOh this was really cool! :D Kenzie read "Not a Fan" and she loved it! :) Also pumpkin bread and waffles sound delicious xD
ReplyDeleteThanks Bella! It's helpful to know that Kenzie loved Not a Fan -- thank you for telling me! Happy 4th of July!
DeleteLooks like you had a great month, Grace! Last month I went to Canada! When are you going to visit your family?
ReplyDeleteHi Joy -- I did have a wonderful month! We are heading up to visit family in a little over a week. I hope you had tons of fun in Canada! :)
DeleteYes, I had a great time in Canada. And I promise I will reply to your email before too long hopefully. ;-)
DeleteSounds like life has been interesting for you! We've also been eating quite a few waffles recently... We've been berry picking a lot and whenever we do we have waffles with berries on top. It's good though. :) And I love "All I Need" by the Bontragers! That's one of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteYes indeed, life stays interesting! :) So glad you could take the time to go berry picking! We did that one year and made some great family memories... as well as filled every large container we had with blackberries! ;) "All I Need" is one of my favorites from the Bontragers, too.
