treasures.

i hate the fluorescent lighting in my office. it makes my walls look like a sea foam green nightmare. it totally stresses me out. this morning, tom and i talked about it on our walk on the deschutes river. he texted me an hour or so later. bought me this lamp. perfect. it's gunna make my sea foam green nightmare disappear. (and so will the daffodils i bought last night at the grocery store.)

went to a wedding the day before valentine's day. i think two other couples from antioch got married that same weekend. love. a lot of red. white. pink. cute. i don't think i'd ever want to get married on or close to valentine's day. but that's just me. i'd be stressed out from some unspoken pressure for it to be perfect or something. i'm sure most people feel like that on their wedding day. but for some reason i feel like it would be worse. (i think i'm trying to justify my own words in case someone reads this who got married around then and now thinks i'm a jerk.) anyways. tom and i danced our hearts out. like total dorks. it is one of my favorite things about us. a treasure. like tom. and this little picture.

day drive this past saturday. listened to music with my windows down. i love this picture. the colors make me feel warm. suny (i like spelling it that way). wires. they make it simple and beautiful. i feel like i can smell the

air. still. the mountains were covered in snow. you can kind of see the base of them. this inspires me. to write music. to think about God. to try and understand how big he is. how he works. why he works the way he does. this picture makes me want to love. really love. the way i should. my friends. tom. my family. people that come and go. intentionally. with all of my little heart.
