People. I'm a totall Tim Tebow freak. Yeah, he's a Christian and yeah, he had an amazing college football career and yes ::whispers:: he might pull off the rugged look just fine, but he wasn't doing so hot in the regular season. All that changed last week. If you missed it, Google it. It's amazing and we all were screaming at the radio/TV (some of us were in the car and some were at home).

Tonight's the night to see how Tebow leads the Broncos in the playoffs. It's gonna be hard; the Patriots are amazing. But the stage he's set himself up on to spread the Word of God will still be there no matter if they win or lose.

Come on, Tim. It's your time to shine. I'm wearing orange & navy blue PJ's rooting for you ;)

it's the little things {link up #3}

One of the most gorgeous and talented blogging women you'll ever met, Lindsay, started hosting a link up called "It's the Little Things" to remind us that God blesses in a not-so big ways. A whole day can turn around when I get a special little something in the mail or my favorite show is on TV that night, and it's great to document the little things God puts in our day to show us he loves us!


...the perfect cup of tea with pumkin seed granola for breakfast.

Happy Friday, friends.

where in the world is carmen san diego, er, sarah-anne?!

If you've asked yourself that question in the past couple weeks, you're awesome. 

Truth is, I can do everything EXCEPT read blogs on my Kindle Fire. Which stinks, but you win some, you lose some.  & since that's the only thing I can't do on the Kindle, I forget that we own a laptop & sink into a Words with Friends coma (wanna play? leave your username in the comments & i'll beat you! or maybe you'll be me...50/50 chance). Thus, no blog posts. 

Forgive me?!

Happy Monday, friends. I hope you've settled back into a normal routine nicely since the holidays are over ::sniff sniff:: Be on the lookout for a bunch of new catch up posts! 

regeneration 2012

Remember Regeneration? Yeah, that. PS Pleaseee do not look at those pictures, just read the words. I can't believe I even posted such blurry photos but it was before I ever took my camera off of Auto. Ah well, you live & you learn. It was my first experience with the WOL youth group here in my town. After going to Regeneration, I started attending WOL and it's been the best thing that ever happened to me. For serious.




And the best part?! It's happening again this year, just a three weeks from today. If you'd like to come, let me know & I will get you a FREE ticket. FREE, people. In addition to hearing great music, you can see us running around the gym like crazy people...because we are. We're crazy about our Savior.

new year and all that.

Peoples. It's 2012. But I'm sure you already knew that. ::whispers:: Because...ya know, the world's supposed to end and everything?! Nahhh, I'm just teasing ya. I like to joke about the end of the world, remember?

If the world really IS gonna end this year, I want to do some stuff. Like, bungee jump and all that. Nope, kidding again. I hate heights. But I really do want to challenge myself in some areas of my life, so here's my list of things to do in 2011.

{1} Do a Project 365 blog. I know, how cliche of me. But really, I'm the person they had in mind when they invented P365; I go days without taking a picture then end up taking 100 over the weekend and photobomb my readers. Therefore, a picture a day is my solution. I think it's going to be so awesome to see not only my photo skills evolve, but see my year in pictures.

{2} Challenge myself in my youth group. Something you might not know about me since you're never met me IRL is that I'm deathly afraid of doing things in public. I hate doing sports when people other than my family is watching, I almost pass out when I speak at WOL, and I can't even imagine singing in front of someone, although my shower head is my biggest fan.

I want to not be afraid & kick a soccer ball even if I flat on my backside, to share what God's been doing in my life without my voice cracking & breaking out into a cold sweat, and sing my heart out up on stage. I feel like God's calling me to challenge myself in these areas, & I know I can do it.

{3} Do a WOL QT every day (on time!) and have a word of the day relating to the devo as well. OK, so the QT a day thing is probably unattainable, but the WOTD per QT is going to happen. It's something that started at camp...we'd think of what the QT meant to us personally and summarize it to just one word then write it on our hand to remind us what we learned about God that day. I fell off the wagon when we got back from camp (HA) but with the new year I'm going to start again!

 That's it. Three simple things that I know I can stick with...that's not to say I'm not going to accomplish other things but these are the ones I want you, my readers, to keep me accountable on.

And, since I love Doctor Who/David Tennat (ohhh, DT), I'll leave you with a little parting gift...

Pea ess: I cried when he said this. To know why, you HAVE TO watch Doctor Who. No exceptions.

Oh yes, it's gonna be a great year indeed.
