Its the little things: take 4.

I'm on the serious homestretch for the semester, and it feels so good. I've never been so overwhelmed or stressed about school, so seeing these 5 classes come to an end is the biggest relief for me.

Though I haven't been blogging much in the past few months, I've been keeping regular stock of the little things I have to be thankful for. Its kept me going in spite of my hectic, overwhelming state.
This week, I have so much to be thankful for!



-being fully unpacked. Packing was hectic and last minute {another story for another time}. I'm so thankful its done. SO thankful.


-two calm pups. The move was crazy on them. And then hosting our friends last weekend put them over the edge {especially Jers!!}. this week has been calm and slow which equals sweet & cuddly pups. 


-last weekend. One of our college friends got married and ALL of J's friends were in the wedding. Being the only couple in Indy, we were able to host! Having everyone under one roof for three days was so fun. And just what my heart needed!


the Gilbert's made us all breakfast before the wedding


Murph fell in love with the newest member of the group!


and they're both single!!! :)


melt my heart. so cute!



friends.


some of the guys.

I have so many more little things to be thankful for! In general though, I'm so thankful for God's provision. So many conversations, hugs, timings, and plans have blessed me and carried me through the past couple weeks.

What little ways have you been blessed lately?

Oh, we just got all of our household goods delivered and all the boxes in the house have definitely stressed our pups out! Glad you are settling down! Looks like a fun week, overall!

Your dogs are beautiful! What a gorgeous little family you have. :)

Also, although hosting friends and family stresses me out (cleaning and cooking and entertaining AND still having to take care of every day duties...yikes!), it's always worth it. It's definitely something to be thankful for!
