who says you need a birthday to have cake&candles?

certainly not me :))

it's the little celebrations in life that encourage you, right? Right. That is why tonight i celebrated finishing my petition to GRADUATE!! My mom made my favorite meal:
pork roast.green beans.cheesy potatoes.sweet potatoes.salad.bread.and a huge glass of MILK:)
of course, i ate wayyy too much and ended up with a food baby. But, as they say, the show must go on....and cake must come next;) Mom made me a carrot cake with an amazing cream cheese frosting...


SPRING 2012...HERE.I.COME.
Do you know what else i discovered tonight?!
A beautiful little bird made it's nest on the gazebo in my parents' back yard!! This bird sat on it's baby to keep it warm. i got a few close pictures and even got a little video. if you focus on the middle of the screen on the video, you can see the little baby moving around under the parent birdie:))



i love my family:)

i've got a new life goal...

...to marry one of the band members from Mumford & Sons. preferably the lead singer, Marcus Mumford, or the keyboard player, ben lovett.

watching Mumford & Sons perform live tonight on the youtube coachella channel was AHmazing. I first heard their album when i was driving out to Auburn for a one day retreat at the Sisters of Mercy Convent (that's another beautiful story;)). Literally EVERY song on Sigh No More speaks to my heart. That is a rarity. And watching them live, i can see the passion and love that the whole crew has for their music. It is so raw and honest.

Here's a clip from an upcoming live video that will be posted on youtube April 19th




xo, kel

you'd think less work would = more relaxation

quite the contrary, my friends. Decreasing your hours as well as your pay rate is a bad combination. Which leads me to ask, God, what the heck are you doing with my life right now? How often i find myself echoing that question. Which really is a shame, because every time i reach the resolution to my "problems," i realize His plan was so much greater than mine...what is that phrase, "let go, and let God"...One of those phrases that is easier said than done, right?
And yet, who am i to complain? What a beautiful bounty God has given me...I'm coming up on my THIRD year in my own apartment (so long!!), i actually have a job (though not totally satisfied, i am still employed), i have a beautiful family, and i have a few friends who i am willing to invest my heart in (as scary as that continually is).

song for the evening:
jm's "clarity"


i made one of my window pieces that features a lyric from this song...turned out to be my favorite piece of art work i've made:
...a question i try to ask myself every day...(:

here's my heart...kgb
