HIGH 5 fo FRIDAY!

    ^^As always linkin' up with Lauren for H54F!^^
Friday, Friday, Friday.... you are always the highlight of my week, never a damper! So thankful for you ;)  1. FIG (flavour influence groups) - even though it was our last one for the Fall - it was so great, encouraging, reminding us ladies that the Lord's timing is perfect and we will not get to experience the fullness and abundance of God if we rely on ourselves and try to fulfill our own desire/goals! When facing obstacles/trials we have to hold on to our faith and not give up! Hebrews 12:1-3 ; Ephesians 3:20-21

^"20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, ²¹ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen." - Ephesians 3:20-21

This is one of my favorite verses! It's a perfect display of Christ's love for us, and He is the ultimate provider.




2.  Spice Tea. - Family Recipe - always love drinking it when it's cold outside. :)

3. This past Sunday - my sweet friend Jannehla was baptized! #lifechange was made! AMEN - so happy for you Jannehla.



4. WEEKEND. I get to hang out with some friends that I first met in June of this year when I began taking my prereq's for PA School - it's one friends birthday and we are invited to share in her celebration! Also I will get to see some friends from high school tonight that I hardly ever see & some friends from college!!!! It will be filled with relationships! Of course to add to the excitement - THEMIX & PRIME are this weekend and ****SPECIAL**** PRIME EVENT :D SKATETOWN on Sunday night!!! COME IF YOU CAN :) All the info is below! If you need a ride - let me know.





5. Today at my work, we are having our annual Administrative Thanksgiving Luncheon - except this time we are being different and having a "PIZZA THANKSGIVING" - excited. I love pizza. (well anything Italian for that matter)
PS. My friend Candace is amazing I went from dark roots ombre - back to blonde last Friday! I love my hair!   

What are your highlights (see what I did there, haha) for the week?! - Share them below!!! or link up with Lauren!!!

XOXO,

~H54F~10/26/12

So here we are again Friday, nice of you to visit! :) ....

This week there have been some fun things going on, so here is my 5 highlights of the week & as always Linkin' up with Lauren!

1.) Wednesday night was the Bring Your Best: Chili Cook-off! It was Flavour VS. Men of the House! My sister entered and won first place for Wild Card #1! White Chicken Chili. It was SO yummy! 

2.) On top of it being the Chili cook-off we got to spend some sweet time in our groups! It grew this week!!!! We got to meet some new faces:)... and I only have a picture of some of the members. (which was pictured last week - yes i know) & Shout Out to my sweet friend Kristin Doty - She baked some yummy goodness and let me have one! (I think it was a brownie - but whatever it was, was GUUD) #canihavemoreplease

3.) I got some trendy boots in the mail this week! :) #excited to wear them

4.) LOVING the cooler weather :) 

5.) I only have a month and a 1/2 left of my CHEMISTRY class! I'm jumping for joy... kinda... 

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!!! I am SO ready for this weekend... :) The MIX and Prime are here :D except I will not get to participate in Prime they moved it to after the 11:30 service and I volunteer from 1-5 the 2nd and 4th Sundays out of the month! BUT YOU should go! & I'll get to go next week!! Prayers needed, I have lots of homework due next week, a test, quiz and lab. The Lord is my strength. 

XOXO,  KB

Ooooh, Happy Day!

Friday Night Highlights!

This week was interesting... I was not really stressed about my extremely hard test that came on Wednesday morning, UNTIL Wednesday morning. lol Ironically, okay not so ironic - I had not studied as much as I wanted but at this point for this test it was toooo late, I was "studied out" math is not my forte and I am just not so into studying for math! So alas, the grade I made I take full credit for and no complaining. HEY I passed! I was agreeable with it due to the low amount of studying that occurred. I am going to try harder on the next one! YES, that's the attitude I need to have & repeat "I love Chemistry!" until 12/14/12 when my class ends. lol

Moving on....
Linkin' up with Lauren for my H54F! 

1. I am going to be getting some boots from BELK (never ordered from there before but they had a really good sale going on) - I'll take pics when I receive them!
2. I was in need of some "professional attire" for work so I ordered a blazer and skirt for work! - excited to get those in the mail. I just love snail mail and packages in general.
3. I am wearing one of my favorite pairs of boots today. #FRESHFRIDAY

4. started my day off right with some Starbucks and Michael Buble!

5. Wednesday (I forgot my Random Wednesday post :/ - mental note; must get better!) is FIG - Flavour Influence Groups & Men of the House @ Fellowship Church - Grapevine Campus! & we had some new faces! I love meeting new people and getting to hear opinions from girls my age! 

Here's a picture of our group :)

::SHOUT OUT:: It's one of my group members birthdays today!
Everyone eat cake in honor of Jannehl Carranza Contreras today! Happy Birthday girl!!! I'm so blessed to have met such a sweet person! :)

I need You by my side today....

Good morning, Happy Wednesday!

Let's just be HONEST; I am already having a crazy, frustrating day. I'm trying to stay positive.... ah prayers are needed.

"Lord, thank You for this day - thank You for a job that do not have to work outside or that I have to be on my feet all day. Thank You for your mercy and forgiving me of my sins, I pray that I would give that same grace to the people that I encounter today. Thank You for the lessons You are trying to teach me - help me to open my eyes and catch on so that I do not have to learn over and over again. Lord, I pray for wisdom regarding people and patience to deal with them. I'm so thankful You love me and my messed up self. Father, I pray that I would be gracious and happy for the authorities you have placed in my life at my work. I pray for peace and understanding of people that I would be compassionate for their sake as well as patient, help me to realize that they may not understand what they are doing at times. Help me to see the way you see people. Lord I want to be more like You, when people see me I want them to see You in my life and not me. I pray that my life would display Christ and that my name would be less known - this is a hard task and I will take one moment at a time. 
I have faith that You will be my strength and You will never leave me and that I can rest in You.I pray all this in Your precious son's name, I pray that you would fulfill your will and take these and do something far beyond anything I could imagine."

Enjoying this song today: "How He Loves" - Kim Walker-Smith // I think it may be my favorite! She was blessed with a beautiful voice.
