Just like that, the snow is back–in full force! As much as I would love for spring and summer to come in full force, snow in the mountains is just so beautiful and Colorado definitely needs the moisture in the ground. All weekend I knew exactly what I was going to blog about today, because I was SO looking forward to today, but with some turn of events I feel the need to mention other events-so I apologize for the all-over-the-place blog.
1st,
My heart, my thoughts and my prayers go out to all of those affected in Boston. What a sad and horrific tragedy to happen today. I just pray for all of those injured and killed in this horrific event. For such a dark cloud to hover over one of the worlds most athletic events, instead of joy and happiness of achieving greatness. For something like this to strike at an event that so many people train so hard for, and celebrate in finishing….so sad…
2nd,
As mentioned in previous posts we are working on our financial freedom using Dave Ramsey. Therefore, after much prayer and thought we decided to sell Nate’s 4runner. It’s his baby. It’s his love (I think sometimes more than me… j/k….well kinda 😉 ) He is feeling at peace about selling it, knowing our finances are in God’s hands and he will continue to bless us. We currently have a guy that is going to buy it, all the financing is taken care of, so we just need to close….we will continue to pray that it will close!
Also, since we will be selling our 4runner, we will also be purchasing a car. We are searching for an older model, higher mileage vehicle that is reliable! We have a couple meetings set and are looking forward to deciding which car will be best for us! Any recomendations or personal experiences out there with a 2001 Toyota Highlander, 2004 Honda Pilot, or 2000’s Subaru Forester? I would love to hear your opinion!
3rd,
It was so snowy today! I was lucky to spend 4 hours at a spa! (see my next post all about the Woodhouse Spa in Denver). Nate picked me up from the spa so I didn’t have to drive home (he’s so sweet!). We were both pretty hungry and were craving some warm food. We have always driven past Da Kind Soups in Evergreen, but had never stopped. Tonight would be the perfect night—and boy it was!
First of all, I got a crazy look when I walked through the doors (flip-flops in a blizzard?!?!?–Yeah, I just got a pedicure!). There was a line of 10 soups, SO many flavors–the ones I remember…Chicken Noodle, Tomato, Chicken Chili, Beer Cheese, Potato Leek, Chili, Lentil something or other, and many others. I think Nate and I had samples of almost all the flavors! I decided on the Potato Leek soup with a bread bowl and Nate decided on the Chicken Chili. Both were delicious and inhaled upon arriving home! The first time will NOT be the last time!
I hope you all had a great Monday and let’s continue to pray for those affected by today’s tragedy.
❤ God Bless
