Happy *official* first day of fall, sweet friends!! #happyfallyall 🍂🫶🏽🍁 This truly is such a magical and joyous time of year, as the leaves are beginning to change color as we welcome in this beautiful harvest season!! I love the significance of fall in that it is the “harvest” season of the year, as farmers reap in the fruit of their labor! And gosh, I just think that is such beautiful imagery for us all - to remember that our lives are an outpouring of the words we speak, the way we live, where we dedicate our time/energy, and the way we love others!! I have currently been loving the new song by @carrieunderwood called “Garden,” and it talks so much about this same imagery!! 🥰🎶🌿 Also, this Monday @wesmabry sent me a little “memories” post because, 4 whole years ago, while I was still overseas in Uganda 🇺🇬 during our engagement season, we officially became homeowners!! 🏡 Sweet Wes bought our precious “fixer upper” home and started fixing it up while I was away - and it’s wild to think it’s been ours for 4 years now (3 years living in it)!! And Wes also sent me a pic of his seminary degree 📜- finally framed in his office at the church. And it was just kind of a “full circle” moment for me - how far we have come in all of our dreams 🥹 - wes is living out his dream as a full time college pastor, I get to be a stay-at-home mama while running EMC from home (truly my dream come true 😭), and now just about finished with my master’s degree in counseling - for God to use for HIS glory as a pastor’s wife and in the years to come! Anyhoo - just really grateful. All I can say is - thank you Lord - and all glory to Him!! 🙏🏽🤍🙌🏽 And in other news, we went to go visit the cutest little pumpkin patch this past weekend and now our front porch/house is all decorated & ready for fall!!
