updates on life

the last few months have been amazing.

i am finally at Arizona State University pursuing a degree in Nonprofit Leadership and Management.

i am taking my diabetes management to the next level and really benefiting from the results: more energy and better control.

spencer asked me to marry him. this has been a whirlwind. i find myself holding back tears of joy every time i think of us standing on that mountain, changing the course of our lives forever. we couldn't be happier.

my walk with the Lord is changing and maturing and enveloping me entirely. it has its imperfections, usually highlighted when i open my big mouth, but i can feel the joy flowing through my life. i can't help but let it touch every dark corner of my life, healing relationships, challenging blindspots, and pulling me closer to the heart of worship.

this coming year is promising to be full of adventure and abounding in love.

daydreams

graduate college and take a six month trip to europe while i deliberate over all the job offers i've been handed.

live in a yurt in the woods with my beloved. garden and live off the land. i only require a working toilet. i wouldn't mind bathing in a river.

volunteer with a high school youth group. build amazing relationships with the students.

move back to the northwest. ride public transportation. meet my beloved for happy hour after work and talk about our day. prepare dinner with fresh ingredients from our local farmer's market.

turn my passion for pictures into photography.

work at a job i love. wear a fierce sweater vest.

see the world. keep traveling.
