To six months..and six hundred more to come...

He is like my second shot at perfection... like before I kept aiming but falling; not short... far. And then somehow by the awesome grace of God He saw me as worthy enough, or maybe I just got really lucky. Regardless. He gave me a second chance and I stepped up to bat one more time and BAM! He...he was my home run. And these last six months I just keep getting home runs :) I am so SO blessed to know Joffre Conrad the way I do. So blessed. So In awe that God would allow me to be with him. Through these last six months I have understood God's grace more than ever before...and its because of him. I adore him :)...So ting ting ting! glasses up! there is my toast...To us! To JIFFY! Happy six months!!!

Did you hear what I heard?

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooo

a little birdy whispered in my ear and

told me a gorgeous little red robin was flying into town,

with her three wild chickys!

And how did I find that out?

That's a secret I'll never tell......haha.

Ever seen a goat jump on a trampoline?

Labor day we got invited to a couples house for some amazing barbeque and some raucous fun and laughter. They have a very farm-esque home...very fun place to have children. They had a trampoline, a pool, an orchard, an old 1930's style house to run circles in...and...two goats and a rooster, as pets. Seriously, it was amazing. And at one point the dad decided the goats needed to jump with the kids, and I HAD TO get it on video. I mean seriously, a goat on a trampoline?! DOES IT GET ANY MORE HILARIOUS?!!?? No my dear follower, it really does not.
So here's to labor day and farm animals...ha ha ha.

Dreamer

You've come to a place forbidden to be,
Seen all the thing's you never wanted to see.
Things you become, never dreamed you would be.
The nightmare has happened
while you were asleep.
But open your eyes O' dreamer arise!
The new day is dawning, it's barely sunrise.
Can't you taste?
Can't you see?
The glory, the sweetness of you being free.
Can you see?
Can you see?
The glory, the glory of all you can be.
Do you hunger O' dreamer, do you want this to be?
The glory, the glory!
Of YOU.....
redeemed.

I feel a storm brewin'

unfaithful servant...

In silent wonder cast your crown,

as the mountains shake and the earth bows down.

The Great I Am shall take His place,

as all creation shields their face.

O darkened heart in the unknown,

Come now fall before the throne.

Unveiling here your great mistake,

In fear and trembling you shake.

Years of folly in your youth

abused Gods grace and robbed His truth.

I heard you utter one last time..."O King is there grace?"

But He shook His head and turned His face.

Unfaithful servant am I not just?

your heart is greedy filled with lust.

How can i say now "enter in," where there is no blood I see your sin.

I offered my son to take your place,

yet still you insulted the Spirit of grace.

It is mine to avenge, I will repay

For every time you turned away.

In love i died and tried to show you...

But depart now unfaithful, I do not know you.
