Picture of tattoo as promised. It says "All of my love, for all of my life"

It was really difficult trying to take a picture of it all by myself, haha. I will have Kevin take a picture close up and post it later.

I love tattoos and I'm excited to get moooooooore!

Blessings in Unexpected Places

The craziest thing happened on Good Friday... I was taking my aunt Joy to the bank and as I was driving through the parking lot, I saw something on the ground. Normally, I wouldn't have noticed it but it looked like a dollar bill or some sort of U.S currency. I parked the car and went out to look at it and it was $100. $100! I looked around but the parking lot was dead and none of the businesses were open at the time. I felt so bad for who ever lost that money. Since I had no idea who that person was, I thought that the best thing to do would be to donate it or pay it forward in someway or another.

That night, my church had to rent out an extra parking lot for Good Friday service. They were asking people to donate $5 if they could so it could help pay for that cost. I thought that was a pretty clear sign! So, that's what I gave the money to.

...And that's the end of my story :)

Getting another tattoo for my birthday next week! Will post pics after ;)

Portland Girls Weekend

Some of my lady friends and I decided to have some girl time down in Portland this last weekend and it was so much fun!

We left Saturday morning to make our way down. Once we got to Portland, we checked into our hotel and made ourselves a cocktail to relax after the time spent on the road. After chillin', we did what any girls would do...we went shopping shopping ;) I love going to Oregon because of no sales tax, you really end up saving a lot of $. I'm always pleasantly surprised!

While shopping, our tummies started grumbling. Close to our hotel was Rock Bottom City Brewery, so we decided to go there. It wasn't anything incredible, but we had a fun time grubbin' and chatting it up :)

That night, we went to a bar near by called Dixies (It's kind of like Cowgirl Inc. in Seattle). We had so much fun dancing and laughing with each other! I wish I had a video camera to record some of the stuff, so funny!

Here's us before we hit the town

The next morning, we crawled out of bed to get the day going. We wanted to check out of the hotel room and hit up some places before we left. We went to breakfast at the Doug Fir. This place is so cool! The decor is kind of 70's modern with some hipster fair. It's really hard to describe, but all I can say was that I was diggin' it. Not only was the place super cool, but the food was nomilicious.

After the delicious breakfast, we stopped at Home Goods on the way home. We had some trouble getting there because of our silly map, but thankfully we made it there in one piece. I got some awesome stuff for our bedroom. I will post that on our blog (Click here to see).


I had such a great weekend with all the ladies and I can't wait for the next girls weekend! :)
