this is one of my favorite songs, by one of my favorite artists! ‘lucky,’ by jason mraz & colbie caillat is too pretty not to post. such a light, carefree song is refreshing to hear every once in awhile. enjoy!
the shack

so here’s a great book recommendation for you! the shack, by william young. my Dad gave me this book for Christmas, and i truly have been blessed by it. thanks Dad 
it is a story of a man that has “given up” on God due to a tragic event in his life. he has always misunderstood God and how He loves His children. this book truly paints a picture of God’s one greatest desire: to have a relationship with us. the book helped me grasp that concept a little more than i have in the past. read it, and thank me later!
you can read a bit more about it at http://theshackbook.com/.
the fashion report: 2009 Golden Globes
January 20, 2009 By Leave a Comment
award season is here! and i am all about it. i love watching them each from beginning to end. which, of course, includes the red carpet! there were some gorgeous dresses this year at the golden globes, but only one gave me chills. literally, i got goosebumps! in my opinion, the best dressed of the evening was eva longoria in reem acra. i love everything about it. love the color, love the cut. the mermaid bottom is so flattering. this is very similar to what i picture my wedding dress to look like! but in 
white, of course
i also just loved this dress of eva mendes’. so prefect! the turquoise jewelry is so very pretty. definitely a fav!
now. for the worst dressed. and this one is kind of unfortunate, because normally she is one of my favorites! ms. renee zellweger wearing carolina herrera looked like an absolute disaster – from her messy up-do to the sheer top with slitted sleeves! and, it should also be noted that the weirder-than-weird expression on her face didn’t help either. everytime she poses for something, she sucks in her cheeks and squints her eyes. weird! but nonetheless, here she is, in all her glory:
gilly!

ohh wow! what a great night for ‘the bachelor’. you know, it is quite a fun show to watch. mainly because i think it is quite interesting to see people try for “love” on a tv show. but the show also provides for some hearty laughs. tonight, for example, i watched in dismay as several of the girls made some pretty note-worthy comments…
my favorite, was when jason explained that he wanted to get to know natalie a little better. you know, dig a little deeper, if you will. so he says “tell me something about yourself, something personal.” to which natalie replies, “well, i really like bears.” i don’t know if it was clever editing or what, but jason’s reaction was absolutely pricelessssss. i still can’t even think about it without dying laughing!
another good one was when nikki was being interviewed by producers. she states quite confidently, “i know i’m pretty, and i know i’m smart. but maybe being pretty and smart just isn’t good enough for him.” really nikki? really??
anyway, you better believe i will keep tuning in… if for no other reason than to hear more funny quotes!
now what?

sooo i have been pondering the idea of starting a blog for fun, and after constantly smushing together things to write about in my head, i decided to finally go for it! it truly will be a blog for funsies. just for fun! random thoughts, favorites, pictures and the like. just a way to release some creative energy perhaps to entertain? hopefully!
to the left is a pic i snapped early one morning right outside my apartment. God is so good! i love living near the mountains. such a beautiful painting to wake up to!
