Anchor Jewelry

It's not a mystery that I love anything nautical inspired, especially anchors. James Avery, a Christian jewelry designer, has come out with a few pieces that are right up my alley.

While I already have a beautiful anchor necklace (a gift from my hubby mentioned in a previous post) the ring is too cute. And I love how the tops of the anchors resemble crosses.

Inspirational Music: Blink - Revive

This song really spoke to my heart since my terrible car accident last year. Things can change in a blink...

The Lord has numbered my days and last November could have been it. But He had other plans for me. Now, I realize how fragile our lives our, and how each moment counts. One of the versus says:

When it's all said and done
No one remembers how far we have run
The only thing that matters is how we have loved...

What a great reality check.

My Disney Adventure

This past weekend, my family met up at the Happiest Place on Earth, in sunny Southern California. It seems I enjoy visiting Disneyland almost as much now as I did when I was a kid. My three favorite things about this past adventure:

1. Laughing with my family


2. Taking pictures with the characters (especially the Princesses)


3. Tower of Terror (@ California Adventure)

Inspirational Music: Amy Grant - Better Than A Hallelujah

This song is beautiful...the idea that our simple actions are pleasing to God.



Here's Amy Grant on "Hallelujah"...

...holiday at sea

"It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased."
— C.S. Lewis (Weight of Glory and Other Addresses)

Sailor-wife images

I went on CafePress.com to look around for some cute images and they had a handful of them that were fit for a sailor-wife, such as myself. Take a look...




Inspirational Music: Brandon Heath - Give Me Your Eyes

The chorus of this song says it all:

Give me your eyes for just one second
Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken-hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me your heart for the once forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see

...at my best

"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."

Believe...
