prom: IG edition {5.18.13}



 
 
1} Last minute prom shopping at Target. As if I could love that place any more.
2} Believe it or not, this is prom prep...washing Bessy {Tanner's truck}.
3} Good grief he's so handsome. Sibling prom dates for the win.
4} Basically us. And it's my phone background cause I love it that much.
5} D'awww. These two looking at pictures of their attractive selves at Winslows.
6} Finally at PROMMM! So many flashing lights.
7} Leftover pancakes from the 10PM second dinner at IHOP.
 
 Simply prom as the title...no other words needed, but plenty more pictures to make up for lack of words. Here are some IGs as a teaser until I get all the fancy pictures together and relive the glory days. So many memories.
 
Happy Saturday, readers. Did you go to prom this year?

cbs sharing day {5.9.13}

Praying over the day.
Mom did an AMAZING job decorating the CM tables.
YUM.
So many thank you notes...I should've been thanking THEM.

Today really was our last day...sharing day. Up until two years ago, I didn't come to sharing day, but the ones I have been able to come to I have loved. This year was obviously pretty dang full of memories and emotions since it would be the last one I'd be at. We were thanked for our work, got to hear some of the moms CBS testimonies, and eat some REALLY good food. And then it was over and I cried.

I was so blessed by this ministry, and will continue to be because I know that I'll still have these people in my life whenever I need prayer or a chat over a cup of tea (thank you second mom, Miss Beth!). All I can say is a huge THANK YOU to everyone at CBS, no matter if they were in the leadership or if they simply attended, and most of all to Him.

Onto a new chapter in life...kind of excited, kind of nervous. But I know that the foundation CBS gave me with help me through all of it.

cbs last day {5.2.13}


We had a special PowerPoint and everything. 
Had to delete my card in preperation. 

SHOWTIME! 





Future CBS kiddio. 
Working on a last minute gift for Mom...all the moms in CBS
got bookmarks with their kids sweet faces on them.

Today was it. The last day that I would be helping out with CBS. I've alluded to the fact that Mom, Clark, and I wouldn't be helping out next year (although Lord willing and providing there will be an awesome Children's Ministry in the fall), but I don't think I've said it out loud...or in my blog's case, type. Probably because if I do, I'll get kinda choked up.

But this isn't about that. It's about the awesome time I know this kids had and how blessed I was to be a part of it. I didn't take many pictures because I wanted to relish the my last day, and I sure did.

cbs last day practice {4.25.13}

Mom watching 'her' homeschool kids practice.


Sweet feet that were so excited to be on stage.
I've said it before and I'll probably never stop saying it: watching the CBS kids praise Jesus brings me so much joy and makes me praise Him as well. Since this is the last time I'll see these kids practice before they get up on stage and sing for their mommies & daddies, it's even more special.

Man, I'm gonna miss this.

{almost wordless wednesday} cue the end of the semester happy dance.

Moodle, the bane of both students and teachers exsistence.
 Two finals in just as many days. My Jesus is the only one that got me through my busiest and stressful semester ever (and school was probably the most non time consuming and chill thing that happened the past 5 months), and praise Him I'm done a week earlier than everybody else. I've always been blessed with great teachers, and this semester was no exception.

So here's to having my Tuesdays and Thursdays back, working a whole heck of a lot, mowing the yard constantly, and pool parties every weekend (just kidding, parents). Also, hopefully I'll be back to blogging on the regular, instead of disappearing for a couple weeks at a time. It's about to get crazy up in here cause SUMMER BREAK BABY.
