Friday Five

Hello, Lovelies

1. Happy Halloween! I hope all of you are having fun and continue to have fun this weekend. I, on the other hand, don't have any plans for Halloween. No parties, no hanging out, no movies or dressing up or passing out candy. Literally nothing. That's okay, I guess. There's always next year. Maybe I'll go to haunted houses, hang out with friends, carve pumpkins, dress up, all the stuff I didn't do this year. Here's to hoping.

I might go out and take photos tomorrow, but I believe it is supposed to rain. I love the rain, but it's not so great for my camera. 

2. On a positive note, I finished editing Kaitlynn's senior session tonight. I even went to the effort of making a collage of some of her photos. I thought it would be a nice little surprise. I really hope she likes the photos. I mean, her entire family and all her friends are going to see them. It would be extremely beneficial to me if I received positive feedback about them. It has the potential to help me get to the next level with my photography business. 

Anyway, I am dropping off the disc with her photos on them tomorrow. I will also be uploading them to my photography page  on Facebook. So, check that out. I'm excited for everyone to see them.

3. This past week I have been back to baking and cooking. Not a lot, just more than I had been. I tried out a new recipe for homemade apple cinnamon muffins. They turned out pretty good. I did add extra cinnamon to the recipe. I think I am going to have to make them again because my dad really liked them. They have apple in them, so they're healthy, right? His logic. I am also going to be trying out a recipe for pan fried drumsticks this weekend. I have wanted to try out this recipe for a while, and even though I don't eat it, my dad is pretty excited to see how it tastes. I'm also making more delicious zucchini bread! 

4. A few days ago I noticed a video about marriage and waiting for God's time. I clicked on it. Although a bit long, pressing on twenty minutes, I watched the entire thing. From there I checked out the rest of the videos on the Youtube channel by Autumn Miles. I learned that she started her own conference ministry and quite a bit about her life as a Christian. I was hooked on her videos and watched one after another. After a bit of time passed while watching her videos, I subscribed to her channel. While watching I felt something inside change. Part of me was so moved, so encouraged. I grabbed hold on this feeling.

I picked up my bible and followed along to the scripture she was reading. I really thought about what she was saying. I really felt like God had me find that first video for a reason. I was curious and eager to read more of God's word and learn how I should be living. It had been an honest while since I picked up my bible and read. I'm so glad I did. Something in her words and the passages she read spoke to me in a way different from anything else recently.

5. I'm not sure I have a five this week. But.... I'm super excited for the Christmas season and snow this year. Last year it was snowing on Halloween. Not this year though. Maybe in a few weeks Michigan will have some snow dusting. That would make my day.
