It is here y'all Easter  a time to remember Christ and what he has done for us. He endured the pains of sin in the garden of Gethsemane and died on the cross to overcome physical death so we would be able to do the same. I am so grateful for this act of Charity and love from my older brother. He truly is my hero and someone I want to be more like. I am not saying that I want do die on a cross for someone, but to have his amount of love and charity!

I want to post a video that means so much to me....This put Easter into perspective for me and I hope it does the same for you as well. Please enjoy and comment if you wish!


HAPPY EASTER 




What Easter is All about

Roles reversed

Tonight was a great night. I went out with my parents and saw a movie called "RIO" so cute...that is if you have not seen it. I laughed and heard all the little children laugh during the movie too. At the end of the movie I looked over at my dad...what did I see? An old man, who has worked hard for his family, a man who has loved much, a man who has grown gray, a man who is growing older everyday. After we walked out of the theater we went to Wal-Mart to get some necessities and I was so protective of my parents. I walked with my mom mostly through the store to "watch out" for her. I felt as if the roles were reversed I felt as if my mom was the little two year old while I was making sure that she didn't fall, no stranger offered her anything! All the drive home I was so cautious of every turn, every bump, every car, everything...it was the strangest feeling. I felt like I was the parent! I never thought when I was younger of a day without my parents...or them getting old....wow, has this time really come to reality?
I guess what I am trying to say is....never underestimate your parents and what they do for you because they will NOT be here on Earth forever!!!

Home Sweet Home?

Well, I made it home and it was raining the whole trip here, and as soon as we come home it poured. It is tough being home right now. I have to get used to being here and away from school. I miss my roommates, school, and everything away from home. I miss having inside jokes, friends, and just learning on my own. I came home to some stuff I was not familiar with about my family...My family is not very informative while I was away with certain family stuff. So now I am starting to feel the stress of helping them out my mom I just learned today might have lost her job, and my dad is not at a well paying job, so I feel like I have to be the next parent to my family. I need to find 2 or maybe 3 jobs just to help them out. I just have to remember the title of this blog..."taking it easy" or I should say have faith and remember that Christ will help me out through all this. Starting thursday I am waking up early and applying for a job to be a server at a local restaurant. I know that I will apply for more jobs here in town and turn in resumes towns around here too. I know that things will work out, I just have to keep telling myself this everyday!!!!!!
Thanks for letting me vent I appreciate it much! Have a great day!! love you all!

On The Road

Today my roommate and I were on the road for 12 hours today. We started out at 6am and stopped at 6pm to rest our weary heads. We both stayed up late the night before for one last roommate "bonding" night, which caused us not to get to bed until 1 or 1:30 am. So we were a little restless today, but we were safe and that is the main thing. We are hoping to reach home Monday afternoon and we both are so excited to see our family and plan out our summers. We both are needing jobs to help us in the fall/winter for school. So this summer will be a challenge, but a good one at that! Thanks for following us and taking time to read this.
We will keep you posted on updates and fun adventures!

Closing Time

Today I was walking back from my last test from the testing center here on campus. What a relief I thought as I was slowly walking down the hallway on my way home. I looked out at the big glass window in front of me as I was walking down the stairs. I took a deep breath in and stared out the window for a brief breathtaking moment. I saw nature like I had never seen it before. I love the sun as it hits the trees right after it has rained....It reminded me of home. I believe I am ready to go home though, so ready to see family and be around trees with more sunshine to enter into my day. Call me sentimental or whatever you might I am so grateful for eyes to see this magnificent wonderful world.

What are you thankful for today?

Thanks

Dear followers,
I wanted to say that I am excited that you have added me as someone you would like to hear more from. If there is anything you would like to talk about then just post something in the comment section and I would love to discuss anything. Most of my posts will be about things just mostly on my mind. There should be something coming up soon, I just have finals coming up this week, so it is stressful right now. Thanks and have a great day!
