grace.

Here is a smattering of pictures from the past few weeks. yes, they might seem random, but they are all reminders of how good my God is and how grateful I am for each of the days he graces me with. 

 my friends and i took one more trip to the beach before fall officially hits us with cool weather and pretty leaves. we wanted to soak up the sun one last time...and soak up we did! It was the most beautiful and perfect day on the beach.

 beautiful sunset view as our day trip to the beach came to a close. a reminder of God's faithfulness and how thankful I am for my friends, family, and job.

 some sweet students I get the joy of hanging out with in University Towers. our powderpuff team ended up winning both of our games! #covergirls

 my dgroup. they are wonderful. and so fun. hayden, kate, and becca...we spent a long day on the field watching games...and enjoy every monday night together.

 the most delicious dessert i've made in a long time: i call them pumpkin spice rolls. i think i may have eaten about 15 in 48 hrs. oops.

 vanilla lattes in morning times; a coffee shop in downtown raleigh. raleigh is the best city. i love living here.

 lisa and I's view out the window as we waited for a student to join us. we have the best job.

Lastly, one of my best friends, Lisa, and I went to lunch last Thursday. We have been friends since our freshman year of college and have walked through many trials and joys together. I am so thankful for her friendship and love that I get to live, work, and play with her yet another year!!
