Sundays (and a little in between)

Last Sunday afternoon was String Academy Recital day (6 hours)!

Which required half priced sushi for fortification




Later that week this happened. *happy eyebrows*


Thursday means FaceTime bible study with Mum!!


Today brought church and then a glorious walk at Morton Arboretum...



...and unintentionally mudding my Sperrys... (This is the last clean picture of them. Totally worth it!)


...and finding leaves twice the size of my head...


...and lots of sunshine (I took a delicious nap in it).




My tree has melted into a gentle yellow.




















Tonight, I got to have dinner with a dear old friend and then take a Geneva drive. We just happened to end up at Grahams 318. ;)



This week has left me so grateful for God's grace to me: 
1) Showing me how desperately I need him constantly, with every breath.
2) Showing me how graciously He delights to provide for my deepest needs, tangibly confirming His promise to always provide a way to carry out what He has called me to do.
