I enjoy photography and wanted to share photos I've taken :)

"Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God's love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think." -Ephesians 3:17-20

Great song I felt like sharing :)

"For the First Time Again" -Jason Gray

I'm tired of the sound of my own voice
And I'm weary of adding to the noise
And I'm fearful of missing the point of it all

I remember the way it used to be
The way this love felt like the first day of spring
And I want this back more than anything in the world

It's as cold as winter in my veins
And I long to feel the summer rain
Can you take me back to where it all began?

Jesus I come, come to you again
Just like it was the first time
I came to you for new life
I need you now, as much as I did then
I need a new beginning
So Jesus I am coming
For the first time again

I'm jaded from all that I have seen
I'm bitter, but I don't want to be
I'm believing, can you help my unbelief?

Sometimes I think I know too much
But even then it's not enough
Can you take me back so I can move ahead?

Jesus I come, come to you again
Just like it was the first time
I came to you for new life
I need you now, as much as I did then
I need a new beginning
So Jesus I am coming
For the first time again

Take me deep inside the grace that forgets
Instead of down the well worn path of my regrets
I'm older than I've ever been
Can you take me back and make me new again?

Cause I need you now, as much as I did then...

My New Car

I do not have long to put much thought into this post but Ash is dying to see pictures so... A few months ago my deeply loved equinox sadly decided to bite the dust on me... Pap tried everything he could to revive her; but, despite his efforts the equi refused to come back to stable condition. This was extremely sad for me because I truly was attached. I got the equinox when I turned sixteen and had lots of great trip memories in her.
Anyway, my wonderful parents surprised me at work last night with my much anticipated new car. Its a black Chevy Malibu that Dad picked out all on his own. (He's great at that. I LOVE it!) The funny part to the story is that I was locked inside the bank for a good two hours as my brand new car sat outside the window and taunted me! I felt as if i was in prison wishing I could get outside to see it. Ha. Finally 8:30 p.m. rolled around and i got to drive it home :)
I love my new car and am VERY appreciative for it. I feel it looks grown up and classy. I think it will be a great car and I hope to keep it for a very long time.
THANK YOU PARENTS! :)

Fun day with Dad

Dad and I enjoyed the sunshine today :) Thanks to Grammy's sister, Aunt Susan, we got to spend the afternoon swimming. Sadly, I spend most of my time in the bank getting no sun... so needless to say today I got fried. I look a little like a lobster. Haha. It was a beautiful day though and great to get to have a little father daughter time. (Wish you could have been there Ash!)

Photography Class :)

My Grandma Carol and I are now taking a photography class together. It's something I have been wanting to do for a long time and I believe she knew that... so she called me one day and informed me that she had signed us up for a class in Decatur. (I love when she does things like that!) It is on Thursday nights and last about two hours. The class is a beginner class, so I sometimes worry gma is a little bored... but I feel I am learning a lot. I am very excited about it :)

My new toy gma got me for my camera!
this allows me to meter my camera and set my white balance

Memorial Day weekend

I do not have any pictures from this past weekend; but, I felt I really needed to post how great it was.... I spent most of the weekend enjoying time with friends home from school. I stayed up way too late every night and slept much too late each morning. It consisted of lots of starbucks(my addiction is back), attempting to play guitar, bad love movies made hilarious by immature boy comments, playing on playgrounds, shooting basketball, throwing frisbee, and laying in parking lots stargazing while having wonderfully deep God conversations that last until two in the morning :) Oh and I almost forgot... we also slid down a waterfall! (kenlock falls) Who could ask for more? Ha. I really do love my friends… I also spent a little family time at the boat which is always fun. It was nice to spend time with my parents and to get to see Ash and Brent. I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday.
