Easter and Happy

Things sure have been up and down lately, but they seem to be getting better (which, I am entirely sure has everything to do with the weather). Plus, it's Easter soon! Easter is my favorite holiday by a longshot, and people always ask me why. I think it's pretty obvious why: warm weather, pretty flowers, good food, and family. Plus, it always seems like a fresh start. And why is it weird to be my favorite holiday? In my beliefs, it is absolute most important day of the year. The day that Jesus, who was sent to earth by God to die for us, rose from the grave. How awesome is that?

And if you don't believe in what I do, I hope you have a good weekend anyway, and enjoy buying jelly beans 50 percent off starting on Monday :)

The warm weather has been splendid, but me attempting to wear summer shoes has not. I have huge blisters all over my feet from flip flops, and I've only worn them for 2 days.

Speaking of warm weather and Easter: I'm so excited to eat ice cream again!


I also want to let you all know, Andrew is going to attempt to have a Lady Gaga fast for the 40 days after Easter. Sort of like Lent, but really just to prove he can. I intend on making this a 40 day long game of incorporating Lady Gaga even more into our lives than it is now.





I have to get ready to go to church with my friend tonight, but I am going to leave you with this quote Eagle heard on Akeela and the Bee and decided to make our mantra:
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."




I promise a real update soon!
