Peace

"Shalom is a Hebrew word, so much richer in its range of meanings than the English word 'peace,' which usually refers to the absence of outward conflict or inner calm. The concept of Shalom includes these ideas. It goes beyond them, meaning 'wholeness,' 'completeness,' 'finished word,' 'perfection,' 'safety,' or 'wellness.'  Shalom comes from living in perfect harmony with God. The fruit of that harmony is harmony with others, prosperity, health, satisfaction, soundness, wholeness and well-being." Anne Spangler 

Loving this. God is the source of all peace.

August Update

 Wow. We just about skipped through July and August, didn't we? Our weeks have been hard working, boot camps, and hearty dinners while our weekends have been filled with friends, family, and sunshine!   It has been so delightful!! So everyone knows I love animals. I even volunteered at the Austin Zoo for a few months when we moved here, which was JUST LIKE the movie "We Bought a Zoo." Haha it was a little dream come true/a lot of dirty work, but I liked it. Anyways, we got to go with Beth and Dust to some of their friends land and see all of the animals that they take care of and wanted to share a few pictures...

So we also got to help keep our sweet nephew. We danced, played with dogs, looked for Lizards and made tons of animal noises. It's been so awesome to watch him grow, learn new words, and laugh at anything and everything. Of course they have incredible parents that help make him who he is :)

The girls got to get together for a Beth Moore conference, Clay came to visit after doing Camp Gladiator Kids, went to Dallas for TBP Concert and we got the best visitor EVER...
