  • Hopefully moving out of ICU (intensive care unit) and into the oncology unit.
Specific Prayers Needed:

  • Improvement in the condition of the liver function, in order to handle the Chemo he desperately needs to start.
  • Continued effectiveness of the two types of Chemo treatments he is already receiving.
  • A good night’s sleep.

monday inspiration // need to go shopping.

I have had this urge to go shopping. Literally, I want to toss all of my clothes and go purchase new ones. (well donate clothes.) This week I just want to shop shop shop– not going to happen. That would mean I had money to spend. ha. not.

1. browns, scarves, & cozy.
2. Once school ends, you best believe I will pick up crocheting again.
3. When I wear things like that, i don't look that good -_____-
4. I have been in a boots mode.
5. This is more directed towards the braid. I kind of really want my long hair back.
6. dresses, pea-coats, and boots :)
7. braids, cute skirts and belts. yes please!

Homework assignment, turned photo-date, turned "What I Wore"

Saturday night I had Cody help me with a homework assignment for one of my classes. I have to make a "graphics in motion", video so I decided to do continual still shots, but when placed into a video format you get a fun still movie type deal– if it turns out good, I will show you.

The assignment called for two cameras. I swear, the second I hand a camera to Cody, he just clicks away! I taught him well. hehe. So in between takes of my assignment he kept taking pictures of me taking pictures of him. ha. I love him! I made use and had him help me take a fun picture for a "What I Wore".

We may or may not have been on a piece of land that we weren't supposed to be in. I mean, what else are knocked down barb-wire fences for? crossing of course! And come on, the view at night was amazing! It is so cool to see the lights all over San Bernardino County light up one by one! We made a vow to go on more photo-shoot dates :) We liked it.

prayer does amazing things...

Happy Sunday friends! I hope all is having a lovely Thankgiving holiday-weekend. I have a prayer request from anyone and everyone who is willing to do so. This past week has been an emotional one around my work and church family.

For the past few weeks our senior pastor (inlandhillschurch.com) has been suffering from some back issues, this past week he was admitted into the hospital to be tested and then find our the worst news that his family and congregation could ask for. He was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. It is the most aggressive and fast spreading form of Leukemia one could have.

This week I ask that you pray for his family and his health, that this sickness is in the hands of God completely and He has got this.
This time of sadness and sickness come in the craziest ways. We currently finished a series called "Prayer" where we went through the book "Too Busy Not to Pray" and are currently going through a series called "Life is too Short". Our next series is called, "A Thrill of Hope". God works in the craziest ways. He is doing amazing things and really challenging the faith of our congregation. No one is exempt for what the world has to throw at us. Not even the ones who teach us of God's holiness. As most of us would have thought that Pastor Dave would be the last person to suffer from such an awful sickness, we see that life is unexpected and will throw a few curve balls at us. 

As someone who has made an impact on my life directly, I find dealing with this especially hard.
Again, prayer is the best thing any of us can do at this point.

THANKS EVERYONE!http://godsgotthis.org/

Thanks Giving & What I Wore

I have been a little mia this week. A lot has been going on with school, work, and family.
I hope all had a wonderful Thanks Giving; filled with joy, laughter, family, and good times! OH yeah, food too!

This year was the first year that Cody came with me to see my family. We usually do our own thing and then I go see him at night. I have to say, he stuck out like a sore thumb with my family. haha. As you can see in picture number three, my family is full of full blood mexican-indians– then we have green eyed white boy cody. haha. I love him. It might have been the full-on Mexican music blasting the whole night. I am surprised my grandpa didn't drag me away to dance with him!

As I am sure most people say the same, I truly believe that we should be thankful for our lives, and the people in them, everyday. Thanks Giving is a celebration of the lives of our great-great-great-great and beyond grandparents who settled here and started the journey of America. Where would we be if that never happened? Only God knows.

And of course, being thankful, grateful, and appreciative of God and the lives he has given us is most important. The people he has placed in our lives have done something to our own person in some way or another. It is so awesome to realize how someone has affected us. So today I pray for the lives that surround me. Life is precious and people make impacts that will change us forever. God has a plan and I am so excited to see what that is.

Happy (day after) Thanks Giving. I hope your Black Fridays are full of deals and safety!
– cody and I were practically trampled last night trying to get great deals. sheesh.

p.s. ROSS IS AMAZING. just saying.

sponsor Highlight // Living Loved


Hi! I'm Lauren, I blog over at Living Loved and I have been reading Christa's blog for a couple months now. Isn't she the sweetest?
So I live in Brisbane, Australia and my pet Kangaroo's name is Buck. Just Kidding. We don't name our Kangaroos, that would be ridiculous. I'm twenty-one and I'm attempting to keep film photography alive through my little collection of plastic cameras. I blog about what I bake, the bands I like, the books I read and the people I love. Including God. Yup He's right up there! 

At the moment I'm putting together a series of guest posts on 'A day in the life' of different bloggers, email me if you'd like to be involved! You can catch me on twitter and pinterest too :)

fun facts//
1. My favourite soft drink is a tie between Mountain Dew and Ginger Beer
2. I love nothing more than picking a random TV series and letting it consume my life until I've watched all episodes that exist.
3. I am almost constantly 'too cold' or 'too hot'
4. I have two puppies. Their names are Charlie and Indy. I adore them!
5. In primary school my best friend and I even had a 'friendship number'. Yep. Cool Kids.

there is no person on earth that i would rather be with.

 
that is all.

jae got a face lift

This morning I woke up incredibly inspired! I am not sure why, but the second I logged onto my computer, I knocked out two blogs on my blog design list. I wanted to start other blogs but I was worried that if my two current designs need some changes, I would then be juggling 3-4 blogs at one time. Instead, while I waited for my two blog owners to email me back about their designs, I started re-vamping my Photography website!

I am so pleased with it. It has kind of been my obsession today. I created a new, more simple (like reallllllyyy simple) logo. – that was more of curiosity. I just typed it out for jokes and ended up loveing the way it looked on my pictures!
She got drop down menus, a few new photos and a few more to come in a little!
Over all. It is incredibly clean and simple. I love it!
