I (reluctantly) crawled out of bed a little earlier today to spend some much needed quiet time. I need to get back into a normal routine of waking up early to spend time in the Word before rushing on with my schedule but with the days growing shorter and the morning rain this week, I haven’t been as motivated to wake up – wanting to spend just a couple more minutes under the covers while the Snooze counts down the dreadful seconds.
I had a few girls over for a taco + marg night at the apartment earlier this week and it was just what I needed – amazing food (if I do say so myself), lots of laughs and a little New Girl to top off the night. It is so exciting to see what God is doing in each of our lives; we shared deep struggles and deep belly laughs. I am so excited to host more girls nights and dinners for friends and family! I think that will be one of my favorite things about this little home that Daniel and I have created. My Spiritual Gift is definitely hospitality – I love having people over and everything this entails. I love cleaning for guests, preparing home cooked meals (this night, I prepared taco meat with a homemade taco seasoning blend and added quinoa to one pound of ground beef – you could barely tell!), inviting people in, caring for them in our home. I hope everyone who walks through our door feels loved, feels cared for and leaves feeling refreshed.
And because I can’t get enough of our little place, I took a few photos when I stopped by tonight after work – the windows open and fall scents floating around.
