Verse of the Week

Hello my wonderful readers. This week's verse is Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through him who strengthens me."  This verse means a lot to me, no matter what happens I can do anything as long as I believe in The Lord. This verse is especially important to me right now because we are moving, I'm moving to a new store and I'm pregnant all at the same time. It's a lot to take on all at once so I am going to be praying a lot and looking at this verse. Just believe in Him and you can do anything. Loves. 

Outfit of the Day - March 28, 2014

Hello my fabulous readers! So today's outfit of the day was for my cousins wedding. It was March 21st and it was an outdoor wedding. I thought this dress was very spring like with the sandals. This is a mint green dress from Dress Barn, it has little cap sleeves and a cut out in the back. I wore just mint green sandals, hair up, makeup natural and rose gold/gold jewelry. 

Here is one of me and Aaron at the wedding having fun. 

Hope you enjoy this cute spring outfit as much as I do. Loves.

Hello my wonderful amazing readers!! I have some wonderful news to share with you today! We Are Expecting!!!! Baby Thorsen #1 is on the way! We found out about a week before our 6 month anniversary.

Verse of the Week

Hello wonderful readers. Today's verse of the week is from Proverbs 22:6, "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." This verse is important to me because me and Aaron have had multiple conversations about how we are going to raise our children and what we will teach them. I do believe this verse, what you teach your children will stick with them for the rest of their lives. Give your children lots of love for sure, I think that is one of the most important things to give them. Loves.
