Fab Five Friday

Fab Five IX


 If you are new to Fab Five Friday...
Every Friday we reflect on our week
and post Five Fabulous things.
Sometimes it is not always easy.
But, we do it!
We ponder on the good of our week.
We encourage you to do the same.
Share with us!!
We love to read how your week has been too!!
 
1) This week I am grateful for:
 

Falen:  My babies being back home!!  After a long drive to Tennessee and an even longer drive back home, I have my kiddos back home.  They had an absolute blast with their Nana and Papaw!

Laura:  People who are willing to pray for me without even knowing why I'm asking for prayers.
 

2) This week I enjoyed:
 
 
Falen:  The road trips to and from Tennessee! On the way there, we stopped at a few local things.  One was a little peach stand in Arkansas.  Another was a beef shop right off the highway.  Then, on the way back home, between construction and accidents what should have been an eight hour trip turned into a 12 hour trip.  So, what do we do?  Take pictures in the middle of the highway and Chinese fire drills. 
 



Laura:  Jamming to Owl City with my babies every day in the car.  I LOVE that they appreciate music!  I also enjoyed listening to my baby girl sing along to Owl City while she was in the shower.  I was floored that she knew so many of the words.  She makes my heart melt.

 
3) This week I learned:
 
 
Falen:  A lot about prayer... A lot about respect... My kids can still surprise me...
 


Laura:  Nothing and no one is too far gone for God to touch and transform!  I heard an Amazing story this week that was nothing short of a Miracle.  All Praise and Glory to God!



4) This week I accomplished:
 
 
Falen:  I finished studying Ephesians 4, finished the Love & Respect book on CD, and listened to Mark Driscoll's sermons on Pray Like Jesus
 
 
Laura:  A lot of reading!!  I also accomplished facing my fears about confessing my weaknesses.
 
 
5)  I am looking forward to:
 
 
Falen:  A friend from out of state coming over tonight, and then of course sleeping in this weekend. 
 
 
Laura:  Taking my babies to the drive-in on Saturday to see Ice Age.  I am also really looking forward to reviewing Weak and Loved for Monday's blog post....be sure to check it out on Monday!
 

 
 
We look forward to hearing from you every week. 
So, tell us the positive of your week.
We love to learn about you, engage with you, and get to know you.

  2. 1. This week I am greatful for: answers direction and overwhelming sense of peace! Jesus Christ Lord of my life am i ever so greatful beyond my imagination

    2. This week I enjoyed: Basking in this amazing feeling God has overwhelmed my soul with. Also, having coffee with my previous roomie Sarah this morning!

    3.This week I learned just how far I've come in my relationship with God. I was shocked at how easy and fast it was to let go of something I treasured so much. Shocked at how much more I trusted God. Shocked at how close I feel to God in the midst of all this crazyness and so glad that in seeking Him I have found Him with ALL my heart!

    4.This week I accomplished: oh wow um I did a lot this week but i don't know what I accomplished... perhaps reaching a place in my relationship with Christ that I've always dreamed of but never knew how to get there. Not that i've "arrived" in any sense but I've reached a step I've always wanted to be at.

    5.I am looking forward to: Possibilities ;) and continued growth in the Lord! also July 22nd I turn 30 and am hosting the most awesome puppet show of the year at my church! whoot! epic. then the next day I will be heading to Columbus for a week long puppet festival! AMAZING!
