...new mercies everyday...
“Forget the former things;
do not dwell on the past.
See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up;
do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland."
Isaiah 43: 18-19

This past weekend some of my best friends came to San Antonio to visit and ring in the New Year! We went to a country concert, hung out at the house, power walked through the neighborhood, worshiped at Oak Hills Church Sunday morning, adventured to Enchanted Rock to explore, watched countless YouTube videos as Darby, Heather and Lauren quoted Nacho Libre, and laughed the entire weekend. What a good way to start a new year!
Being home has reminded me how blessed I am by family and friends- it is good to my soul! These girls really do sharpen me, encourage me, make me want to be a better person, bring so much joy and laughter into my life, and point me to the Lord. So thankful!
we went on our own nature walk.. check out "neature walk" on YouTube. haha
