Sunday Snapshots: Memorable Moments from the Week

 

I appreciated the beauty (literal and figurative) of this past week and the moments that stuck in my mind as extra sweet. The week provided a great end to the month of May, and today I want to show you some of the sweetest memories.

Even though I declared my church office complete, there will forever be tweaking of the space. This week, the tweaking came through adding a lamp to the empty spot in the corner. It reminds me of the lamppost in Narnia, and I love it so. It feels perfect to me right here.

My absolute favorite part of the whole week was our holiday on Monday. We had zero plans. I never did get ready. We sat and enjoyed throughout the entire day, and it was grand in such soul-filling ways. Ending the day watching a sunset over the lake felt like perfection.

Today is graduation Sunday at our church, and we’ll be honoring those who have achieved this milestone this spring. I had a chance to write notes to all our high school graduates, and I really loved sharing with them a verse that I hope they will take to heart throughout their lives, as well as my own congratulations on a milestone that matters.

Had some great meetings this week – and some great coffee. Though the meeting pictured here is a different one, one of the Zoom meetings I had was about starting school this fall, and it left me so encouraged and excited!

This month has continued to run on the cold side, which has made me sad for many reasons, including a lack of good walking weather. We finally had a great walk this week, and it was fun!

Ryan and I are not in the season of life where we attend many weddings, but I have a feeling this will change as our friends’ kids start to get married. We did go to one this weekend – and after the wedding, we had our own little ice cream date. It was freezing, we sat outside, and I was in a sleeveless dress, but it was still fun!

We had small group last night and the food theme was breakfast. I made gravy for the first time in my life, and it wasn’t too bad! It wasn’t as seamless as the fool-proof recipe promised, but it tasted good, so that’s what matters, right? Biscuits and gravy = Ryan’s happy place, so it was a good day for him!

                Enjoy the start of this new month, friends! Have a great day!
