Signs.....

Happy St. Patty's Day! I hope you all wore your green today to be in the spirit of things. Mike humored me this weekend and drove me by our new condo. Our realtor (Kristin) told me they had put the 'SOLD' sign up, and I just really wanted to take a picture. Mike further humored me by getting out into the rain and posing by the sign. Isn't it SO exciting!?!?! We sign all of the papers this Friday at 5:30. Kristin says it will take about 1-2.5 hours. We ask a lot of questions, so I am guessing it will be closer to the 2.5! We officially close on 3/26, and we get the keys at that point. I am excited to get Mike in there so that I can start to picture what we want to register for!
Signs of spring are also abundant in Seattle. The leaves haven't started blooming yet, but flowers are beginning to pop out all over! I am hoping the cherry trees on the UW campus are out this weekend.

Bridal Veil Falls

I thought the name was very fitting! Mike and I took some much needed time together and went for a hike through the snow. It was wonderful! We are getting better at the 'self portrait'

Maybe I should bring this picture in and have them model my veil after this...


I love this bridge!

Goal of the Week

Please enjoy this sunset over Puget Sound!So Mark had a great point at church tonight. He was talking about being aware of God's grace around you. It was very convicting. I've been so caught up in being so busy that I have been very blind to the blessings He gives me, and they are SO abundant. Mark made the analogy that it is like being a fish in water and asking where the water is. God's grace is like water for the fish. It encompasses you, it's your source of life, comfort, and nutrients. You can't survive without it, yet it is still easy to be blind to it. I pray that I will be very aware of God's grace and blessings around me this week.
