Lovely Little Things.

My whole family is in town, so I don’t have much time to blog today. But here are some lovely little tidbits from the past week. Enjoy!
Hello new adobe fire pit. We stole it from the neighbor’s trash pile. No shame. {Oh, and my husband doused that log in gasoline which is why it’s spewing flames from the top Harry Potter style. That’s the type of thing men do… and then their wives turn their antics into Harry Potter allusions.}
Hello summer reading. You are in French. We’ll see how we get along. {I have to pass a foreign language test in the fall! Please start praying for me now!}
Hello Paletas Betty. One of my new go-to places for a refreshing treat. Between you and the place that sells ice cream cookie sandwiches for $2.00, it’s going to be a sweet, sweet summer.

Hello lovely rosette necklaces that came in the mail from Seek First.
Now I have to decide which one to keep and which one to giveaway!
Hello pool that is finally clear of algae and maintaining proper chlorine levels. We had a tough month together in May, but I think we can really strengthen our relationship this month!
Hello #shereadstruth journal {also check out #scripturedoodle}. I am loving the way I am so inspired to dig into the Word each day and really reflect on God’s truth in my life.
Here’s to a lovely week, friends! My sister is here, so I know it’s going to be lovely for me!!!

  1. I love the new blog design!
    And I love how you referenced Harry Potter there 🙂 I would totally do the same thing.
    Your scripture doodles are beautiful, I keep telling myself I need to journal while I'm doing Soul Detox, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
    Have a wonderful week!

  5. what an awesome find from the neighbors trash! I am always looking through peoples bulk pickup to see what I can get my hands on hahahahah. Have fun with your fam!

  13. Ooo, I love those necklaces! So cute! And have fun reading your French book. 🙂 I took French for three years in high school and loved it so much.

  14. That pool looks lovely for a hot summer day! 🙂 Also, I love your "scripture doodles"! I follow you on instagram & it's so fun to see them! They are very cute & inspiring! 🙂

  17. Visiting from Hello Hue link-up! I love reading in French (well, trying to anyway). It works much better for me than trying to speak it. 🙂
