i'm the new chicken clucking open hearts.

^^in case you are wondering about that title, it's lyrics to this song i cannot get out of my head. i love this song. the weepies are fabulous.

again...so much has changed in my life.

Jesus...you never fail to amaze me.

gahhh i am so undeserving of all the many blessings he has put in my life. literally i would never finish this blog post if i were to put in here everything he is doing in my life right now...

I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me. - Proverbs 8:17

Praise be to you, O LORD;
teach me your decrees. -Psalm 119:12

God is exalted in his power.
Who is a teacher like him? -Job 36:22

For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the LORD, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
-Jeremiah 29:10-12

God has brought me laughter, and everyone who hears about this will laugh with me.
-Genesis 21:6 << i love his sense of humor :)

i really feel so content and fulfilled with God at this place i'm in my life currently. now i just need to give back the love and joy i feel to others.

what does this look like in my life? well...i am still figuring out the fine print. i definitely feel like he is using me in my day to day life, but i have always had a strong desire to work with youth in some form or fashion...maybe because i feel like i'm still a kid myself, and i want to stay this way forever. :]

new hampshire this weekend, new york next weekend...can't wait! ahhhhh

nautical gifts.

childrens museum in boston...phenomenal. i especially enjoyed braiding the balding mannequin's hair in the fake salon...they were probably balding because kids like ripping out hair for some reason. yes. i have experienced this firsthand.

so how can i catch up all my blog followers on my life? ahhh...so much has changed since i last blogged.

change is good though...most of the time anyways.

God is doing a lot in my heart these days. i am ready to be molded however he wants me...i just needed to continue guarding it.

oh yeah...i moved! i now live 20 min. north of the city, which is much closer to my job, church, etc...which is super nice, and i live with 2 pretty awesome gals and the sweetest dogs on the planet. i was sad to say goodbye to my old roomies though. i will definitely miss them. we had some great times on south main street.

i've gotten to go to the beach a lot lately, which has been freaking incredible. if i could be there every day, i would. speaking of...i had the most amazing 4th of july everrr this year. i went kayaking into the ocean with the most beautiful watermelon and marigold sunset and fireworks all around, followed by grilling out, and being serenaded by a guitar on the beach all night long. :]

life is great.

God is great. i love my church. i'm really starting to feel at home here.
