breath of life.....

                   Live every second of your life for Jesus, don't wait until your last second........


                                   Show so much compassion, that you have to stop judging......

Do a job well cause you never know when God will stop you from doing it again.

Lift your voice and sing a praise to Jesus cause you never know if it is your last.

Stand up for Christ,cause you never know if won't be able to stand tomorrow.

Know you are beautiful....

                    Cause tomorrow you may forget that you are and have to remind yourself.



                                    Smile cause you never know if it will brighten someones day...

Put others before yourself and be humble.

Follow what God calls you to do...

                                                Even the impossible.



                                                                               Be You!

Stop and listen to lifes music....

No, don't ever stop!

surprise

Source: google.com via Alexa on Pinterest

I've always wanted to plan,plot,and pull off a surprise party for someone,with my sister turning 21 in December I think I'll make my move then. ;) Shhhh..don't tell her. It's going to be so hard,since she figures out everything!

So I've been looking around at themes....I was at first thinking of a mad hatter/Alice in the wonderland theme.....

But then I was like for a girls turning 21,nah.

Then I thought a blue winter wonderland theme.

Hmmmm......Maybe....but then I found tons of fun ones on pinterest (of course).

Liking this idea,not sure where I'ld do it at....in front of the door when she walks in.

this would make a nice buffet table.

Totally doing this! Except maybe if I can fit 21 on our white marker board.

Invitation..Check.
Anyone know where to get them at?!

Beautiful,but not quite Jessica.

Okay,when I saw this I nearly freaked,this is beautiful!!
Probably a little more me then Jessica,but I think this could be a possibilityby changing some things, not on the ground like that,cause that is where the 'me' comes in and make the food her. :)
Instead of tea we could do hot chocolate and have these;

Does anyone have any good ideas for this surprise party.... change in theme or food?!

Meeting Sarah with button swap.....

Bree @ Tea & Bree emailed me asking if I'ld be interested in a button swap and it sounded like so much fun I couldn't resist particiapting. I got paired with Sarah from "Twos Company" a new blog to me,so I enjoyed getting to know her and I'm sure you will too.

Tell us a little about yourself; Hey ya'll! My name is Sarah. I'm an 18-year-old and I love this life, and try to be thankful to my awesome God who gives me all I have. :) I am a definite people person and treasure my family and friends so much! One other you ought to know about me is that I really love to laugh and enjoy anybody who is fun-spirited like myself.

What are some of your favorite hobbies?

I am a self-taught pianist and I seriously couldn't live without music. I also like reading quite a bit, especially classics like Dickens, Austen, etc. You'll see me playing volleyball with friends on a summer's afternoon as well. ;)

You and you sister blog at "Twos Company." why did you two start a blog?

I think the reason we started this blog was to chronicle our beautiful life and hopefully to inspire and encourage others through it.

How did you come up with the name "Two's Company." ?

Actually this is a fairly new alias for this blog. :) We felt like we needed a change and once Rachel suggested this name, it just kind of stuck, you know?

Are you a coffee or a tea drinker?

That's a tough one. I think it depends on my mood. I really love coffee, but being a southern belle, iced tea on a hot day hits the spot like nothing else can. :)

What are some of your favorite blogs to read?

Lucia, Etc

Scraps from My Workbasket

Life's Too Short not to Wear Red Shoes

Tea & Bree

and Homeschool on the Croft

plus many other wonderful sites. :)

If you could go anywhere in the world where would you go?

Either an European Tour or to New Zealand! (if at all possible, I'd do both!)

If you could go on a missions trip anywhere where would you go?

I've been thinking about this question a lot recently, and I have to say that for several reasons I'd love to minister in Romania. But really, I desire to be sent wherever the Lord needs me! :)

What would you do if you had a million dollars and you could only spend it on yourself?

First off, I'd tithe it. Once that was done, I'd buy a nice energy efficient car, buy a reallllllyy nice camera, get a Mac or something of the sort, go to Europe for a few months ;), a whole new wardrobe, an iPad or Kindle, a recording studio in my really awesome house I'd get, and I think the funds would be pretty close to drained by then. ;P

One word to describe yourself or your life?

Blessed.

One word to describe your blog?

Colorful.

Thank you Sarah for this interview I enjoyed getting to know you. Check out Sarah and her sisters blog "Twos Company." leave a comment or become a followers and make her day. :)
