Birthday Musings 11/21/14

This weekend, we celebrated the two older nieces' birthdays. Emily and Kylie's birthdays are one day apart, and they are one year apart in age, turning 14 and 15 respectively. They are both cousins and best of friends. They don't live that close to each other in proximity (about an hour and a half apart), so anytime they can be together for an extended period of time, they are very happy.

I picked them up on Friday night. And we spent Saturday doing crafty things, like making necklaces.

We also made a trip to my favorite local bakery for some fancy birthday desserts.

It was fun to spend time with them both in these ever changing teenage days. I'm grateful to God that he has allowed me a relationship with them both and pray He draws them unto Him.

Happy Birthday, Girls!

About Me

I'm a wife, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. I live in Minnesota with my husband, Greg. I exist to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ and make Him known in all that I do. This blog is one of my attempts to do just that. I believe that there is no such thing in life as mundane moments. God uses them all for His glory and for His purposes. I'll attempt to demonstrate that with this blog through my various musings about living an ordinary life while serving an extraordinary God.

In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of His grace, which He lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of His will, according to His purpose, which He set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in Him, things in heaven and things on earth.

--Ephesians 1:7-10

In the infinite wisdom of the Lord of all the earth, each event falls with exact precision into its proper place in the unfolding of His divine plan. Nothing, however small, however strange, occurs without His ordering, or without its particular fitness for its place in the working out of His purpose; and the end of all shall be the manifestation of His glory, and the accumulation of His praise.

--Benjamin Warfield
