FONDANT!?! Oh the word even terrifies me! I've never worked with this weird stuff before! I've never wanted to work with it because:  1. It doesn't taste good 2. Seems really complicated 3. I do not want people thinking I can make whatever fondant cake they see on TV. 4. I don't have (or want) a full service kitchen with endless cutters, tools, and stencils!  5. Plus, I don't like eating things unless I can tell what's in it  I always thought that fondant had weird chemicals in it... my imagination was wrong. Since I've been so scared of using it, working with it, and failing... I've always ignored it's existence. However, when your precious little nephew is turning five and he asks you for a Captain America cake... you make sacrifices! You conquer your fears! You do what you thought you could never do before for the ones you love! (I still haven't tasted it though, haha) Pretty much the only other fear I can think of rig

     I usually do not read books. In fact, I couldn't tell you the last book that I ready in entirety. I have lots of books! I read books of the Bible easier because I technically don't have to read the whoooole book. (I should) However, I'm almost finished with this book and it's a'kickin' my behind! It's called "Enemies Of The Heart" by Andy Stanley . My wonderful friend and mentor Emily gave me this book because she knows how messed up my heart is! Just kidding, but really, we all need some heart surgery!!         First, discipleship: a process recommended by JESUS himself! Oh yeah! You remember the great commission? The last thing Jesus said to us on Earth? Going, making, and teaching. Greek word "go" meaning "as you are going" as in, as you are going through life, not just to Asia, etc. That's where this whole process started. Discipleship is also how we find ourselves here today... one disciple to another we have

Some flowers I picked today :) In case you missed it... we're pregnant!! It's hard to believe but we're so grateful! Blake and I will be married for three years in July so, we feel like this is perfect timing for a little addition to the madness. We've shared vacations, plenty of moving, new friends, new churches, new everything. It's been a blessing to discover my role as a wife and even to enjoy an actual home for a year so far! We were sort of trying, if you must know! I was trying to avoid children for a little while longer because the whole process just freaks me out to be honest. I mean, a woman's body goes through SO many changes and that scares me! I'm learning to accept it now since it's all so exciting and start picturing myself as a mom. Weird!  Blake has wanted children from day one so he has definitely been my biggest cheerleader! He will be the best dad! More on that later, that topic needs its own blog post don't you think?
