To Infinity and Beyond

Last night my family (my mom too! she got home just in time!) and Meaghan and Jason and Monz and Monz's parents and brother Will all went to Toy Story 3. Josie LOVES Toy Story and has several Woody dolls, a Jessie, a Buzz, a Slinky-Dog, and a Bullseye. She was so fun to watch as she got really into the movie! It was a really good and funny movie and we all enjoyed it! It was funny too because we saw 3 kids that used to be in our class, so it was a mini class reunion. It was also funny because kids that used to be in our class would see us and say "Oh is that Meaghan? And Monz too? And Jason?" and they'd stop. They never noticed me!

Then this morning Meaghan and Jason and I went to Farmer's Market and then Meag took pictures of Jason and I at the graffiti wall!

A Great Birthday Present...

For my birthday Monz and Meaghan gave me money and a note with instructions to use it for a date with Jason. So last night we decided to dress up and go to Ciao Mamba, but it was super busy so instead we went to Johnny Carinos. He even brought me flowers before we left!! It was so yummy and so special. We had such a wonderful time! It was funny, because when he got to my house to get me,  my dad made me sit on the couch and had Jason came upstairs to get him. Then he sat down across from us and acted all stern and questioned Jason, like "where are you going and when will you be back" and he lit the "courting candle" too! It was funny.

I have such a great boyfriend and I love dating him and spending time with him! God has blessed me so much! And I'm thankful for my sweet friends Meaghan and Monz who would give me such a great birthday present!

You Can Have Me

If I saw You on the street
And You said come and follow me
But I had to give up everything
All I once held dear and all of my dreams
Would I love You enough to let go
Or would my love run dry
When You asked for my life
When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me
If You’re all You claim to be
Then I’m not losing anything
So I will crawl upon my knees
Just to know the joy of suffering
I will love You enough to let go
Lord, I give you my life
I give you my life
When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me
I want to be where You are
I’m running into Your arms
And I will never look back
So Jesus, here is my heart
When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
You can have me
When did love become unmoving?
When did love become unconsuming?
Forgetting what the world has told me
Father of love, You can have me
My Father, my love
You can have me

A Love Song

This is a song I wrote and today Monz put it to music and recorded it!! She's amazing! I can't wait to hear it!!

A Love Song

(from Psalm 63 & Song of Songs)

Jesus, Lover of my Soul

Earnestly I seek You

My soul thirsts for You

My body longs for You

Because Your love is better than life

Lover, I can’t get enough of You

So here I am in this place of worship

Eyes open, drinking in Your strength & glory

In Your love I am finally alive

I hold on to You for dear life

You’re captured my heart, dear Lover

You looked at me and I fell in love

One look my way and I was hopelessly in love

My Darling, my Beautiful One

You have stolen my heart

You are my King, you are my Friend.

But You are more than that

You are my Lover

All I want to do is be with You

I am faint with love for You

My dear Lover,

You’re one in a million

No one even compares to You
Everything about You delights me

Thrills me through & through

I am my Lover’s

I’m all He wants

I’m all the world to Him

My heart beats for Him alone

I am my Lover’s and my Lover is mine

This love is stronger than death

It’s jealously unyielding as the grave

A love that burns like a with a mighty flame

The fire of this love stops at nothing.

This love is forever.

New Life!

Missoula 316 Banquet

Jason and I got to attend the banquet on May 21 and sit at my parents table, which happened to be right next to his parents table! It was an enjoyable night! We wanna get involved in a homeless ministry =) And I love this handsome guy =)

(oh and yes I did get my hair cut significantly shorter for anyone who noticed!)

Tasty Tuesday

Tuesdays will be the days when I post pictures about the meals I'm cooking (if I take pictures!) Feel free to comment and ask for recipes! I'd post them...but considering only 3 people read my blog...it'll save time typing them! Here's what I made for my "second-birthday" on the 19th:

the poppy seed chicken casserole (a lot yummier than it probably looks!!)

and the "summer fruit pizza cookie"
