Filled to the Brim

Yesterday was a busy day. The good kind of busy. I had coffee with a friend, beach time with one of my best buddies and her daughter, a skype date with Moriah, and then some precious worship time on the beach under a full moon with some of our very best friends.

And my heart is full. So full.

These weeks when Chris is gone are potentially lonely, depressing weeks. I'm such a social person and I enjoy my alone time but I crave people time. God takes such good care of me. He sends me days like yesterday, filled to the absolute brim with sweet relationships.

And the day was just made even better by my sparkly cardigan. Which reflects sunlight like a disco ball while I drive and totally distracts me. The world better watch out when I've got my sparkly cardi on.

    So blessed being able to chat with you for a bit yesterday! And so happy to see how God is most definitely taking care of you while Chris is away. What an awesome evening being able to worship with friends. I've got to find time to do more things like that in my life!

    Love that cardigan!! What I wouldn't do to be able to spend a week day at the beach like that instead of spending it stuck working in my office!

    You have such a great, upbeat vibe here...love visiting your blog. It's definitely part personality, part fact you live in Hawaii! The pics alone on your blog make me happy!

    And...I am loving your sparkly cardi! I have a shirt like that, and I often catch myself being distracted by the shimmers. :P

    I love the cardigan and shorts in the first picture! I love sparkly clothes. I see they are from forever 21. That store is dabomb.com because they have such cute, trendy stuff at affordable prices. That and H&M are two of my favorite stores.

    I recently found your blog from 'faith blogs'. I love to read a blog who's focus is sharing Christ first. It is always refreshing. Its nice to read something on the interwebs that is not only entertaining but challenges me to examine my OWN relationship with God. So glad I "found" your blog! :)

    Aw what a sweet post! I love your outfit! And beach time seems to make any day brighter (literally) ;)
    Worship time on the beach makes me so jealous! It's impossible not to feel close to God while enjoying His gorgeous creation of the ocean! Hope you've had a great (not-so-lonely) weekend!
