“Do not give up meeting together” -Hebrews 10:25

Had the blessing of kicking off our IF table this week.

Laughter. Tears. Prayers. Community.

I’m so grateful for the women who have said yes. Taking a pause from life to talk life. It’s therapy.

This months theme is renewing your mind. And how important that is. In world that gives us every reason to live anxiously. We need the Lord to remind us we weren’t made for anxiety and good friends to encourage and pray for that!

If you need this community too I would be happy to help you get your own IF Table started. It’s not a study. No prep needed. Just come. Ready to share life. And find community in it!

Let’s learn to meet. Encourage each other. Pray for each other. Break bread. It changes lives. ♥️

This kid doesn’t get nearly enough attention on my feed. And these aren’t the moments I want to highlight for him. But recently they have been the moments I have gotten to see him truly shine with others.

As we sit here for the 4th time in 6 weeks getting treated with an overnight hospital stay I get to watch him be so kind, gentle, patient, brave, and funny!

The Hospitalist came in and said “I hear we need platelets!” And without skipping a beat he said “ya desperately!” 😂😂 which made everyone laugh.

As the nurses poked him FIVE times to find a vein and had to call in ultrasound to finally get it placed - he just breathed calmly. Blinking back tears in between them leaving the room to find another nurse to help.

And after everyone leaves and it’s just him and I in the quiet room he tells me about the things we never find time to talk about in the hustle and bustle of life.

I’m swallowing tear gulps as I write this because while I certainly had no plans to spend my summer visiting the hospital so regularly. I think these are the moments God really shows us things. The importance of slowing. Listening. Being.

Grady may not be my most showiest kid. He definitely makes me crazy more than not. But he sure is special in his own beautiful ways. And tonight when I snapped this picture of us. I saw his Dad so plainly. Handsome. Patient. Kind. ❤️

Grateful for the quality time and precious memories. Even in the undesired circumstances.

This is 14 years.

Going to dinner the night before your actual anniversary because there’s a baseball game on it.

Zeb wearing the same shirt he wore 16 years ago on one of our first dates and me wearing a brand new dress just to feel pretty.

And crying the whole drive home about how fast time is going. How little time we have left with our babies to make the most of everything.

And coming home to a note on the counter after they have all tucked themselves to sleep on the trampoline and put all their dishes up from the night.

14 years of so many highs and lows. He pursues me more now than ever. It’s never perfect. But it’s full of Gods grace and mercy. And I am so grateful God gave me him.

Happy Anniversary Zeb Austin! You bless me so much more than I deserve. ❤️

Well Grady gave us quite the scare this week! But now that it is behind us I can celebrate!

Long story short random bruising over the last couple weeks had my head spinning to worst case thoughts. But come to find out he just had a thing called ITP which is virus driven and destroys platelets! Never even heard of it! We believe a small two day virus he had at the end of March caused it and when we went to the dr Monday his platelets were only a 4! So low when the normal range is over 150!

We were thankful that was all we were dealing with and after two days of infusions his platelets are already on the rise!! 🙌 he will still need to be cautious as they continue back to normal with limited activity but we are so happy to be on the healing side!

Thanks to each and everyone of our dearest friends and family for praying, letting me cry before I knew what we were facing, and checking in!

And word to the wise!! Be sure your kids know to tell you about changes on their body! I thought mine did but somehow Grady still thought it wasn’t important to share these changes with me and only found out thanks to his brother showering with him and yelling “bro WHAT happened to you?!” 🤦🏼‍♀️😵‍💫

Edited to add: Dr. Al-Rahawan is an incredible doctor! I will always say we are SO LUCKY to have the healthcare we have in Lubbock TX! It’s one of the reasons we love living here. Truly fabulous providers!

I hadn’t cried until today.

I didn’t cry on the last day.

I didn’t cry all the times I spent cleaning it up.

But today. In the quiet and stillness. Realizing one year ago today was our final prep day for opening the doors.

I cried. So. Hard.

For all of it. For the hours spent. The money spent. The losses.

You know, people spend a lot of time on here sharing the mountain tops. Rarely do they share the valleys.

I can’t help but always share both.

People would say I’m crazy but those 8 months we were open were a mountaintop in so many ways. I felt so alive and invigorated every single day. Serving, getting to know the young people that worked for me, creating memories with my kids in ways I hope train them up for the world. My body was healthier. No shortness of breath. Running miles better than ever. I’m telling you-so alive.

And yet. It was a valley pretty quick. When you realize just how ill equipped you were for such a big endeavor.

I’ve reflected a lot on that time. I thought I would be embarrassed. But I’m not. I’m so grateful for the time. The lessons.

I’m sad today. Because it’s still the valley we are trying to climb out of. But I know God is working it out. He’s sharpening me in the fire.

And in the words of our pastor a couple weeks ago - “how can you know how good the mountain top is if you haven’t been in the valley?”

I see that peak. I don’t know how far it is. But there is purpose here. There was purpose there. And I can’t wait to look back on this one day and help someone else with this chapter from my book.

I’ll never quit saying thank you to so many for the way you supported us in that time. You know who you are. ❤️

I wish Pageantry didn’t hold such a stigma. Let me tell you. Women on that stage are so so brave. Braver than 98% of America. I watched women tonight dare to be brave. I watched them mess up. And recourse. I watched them kill it. And be proud.

I watched the new Title holder for Miss Lubbock get hollered for by the very best fan club and her dad wipe away tears after her win. Just to learn she suffers from bilateral hearing loss and truly shined tonight. In a moment they probably never thought could truly be hers. 🥹

The outgoing Miss Lubbock brought tears to my eyes in her farewell speech as she so genuinely gave thanks to the year behind her, the way it’s changed her and the people in her corner.

My most favorite words from her speech were:

“Use your voice boldly, serve selflessly, and always stay true to yourself.”

Those, Laney Whitefield, are words to live by. ❤️

Such a fun night attending Congratulations to the newly crowned winners. Miss Teen Lubbock, Hannah Gilchrest and Miss Lubbock, Karleigh Smith.

As we leave town for our first family Christmas celebration for the season I wanted to share our virtual Christmas card. I simply didn’t get them printed and mailed again in time! I love receiving all of yours and letting them decorate my tree though!

And since we also didn’t get family pictures done again enjoy some of my favs from the year!

I hope everyone has a blessed, fun, and safe Christmas!! 🎄

I started some writings on December 1st in a more private platform. I used to keep a blog and I miss so I thought I would try dabbling in it again. So for the Christmas season I am writing random thoughts about Christmas with some scripture. Hopefully things to help anchor hearts in a busy season. Here’s today’s - an extension of my first one of why people are so drawn to kick off Christmas as early as possible.

**************************************

I have 1 theory as to why people itch for Christmas.

“And this is the judgment; the light has come into the world, and people loved the the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.” - John 3:19

It’s hard for me to actually say...humanity loves darkness when you consider the light and love of Christmas. But I don’t actually think it’s far off.

What we love about Christmas. Why we ache for that holiday spirit to start so soon...is just that. The spirit. It’s the spirit of joy. The spirit of togetherness. The spirit of generosity and light. It’s the one season a year that actually lives and breathes LIGHT.

And where Light exists....darkness ceases.

Christmas allows for the light to pe*****te all hearts...believers or not. It allows for even the darkest of dark to see a glimpse of something more and with that glimpse provide, maybe for even a second, the hope of everlasting light.

The hope to stop the addiction.

The hope to stop fighting.

The hope to quit choosing evil works.

You see I don’t actually believe humanity loves darkness. After all Humanity was created by the ultimate Light giver. But we exist in a body full of sin and flesh. That without that guiding light to draw us near each day. To help us strive for likeness of Him. It seems nothing else is to love than darkness.

Christmas brings light. And where Light exists Darkness cannot.

So maybe the draw. The ache for Christmas to begin. Is really just the ache for light to exist exponentially even if just for a season. 🕯️
