This weekend was pretty exciting. Rachel and I celebrated Gaby's graduation. Gaby is, hands down, one of my very favorite people. She's a masters student studying computer science and she does web design and she's a native Spanish speaker and is my life-saver when it comes to Spanish Bible Study. Whilst walking over to the most adorable Indian place I've ever seen (if you're ever in Pittsburgh: Spice Island Tea House) we saw beautiful tulips!

I don't know if you missed me, but I certainly missed you.

Last week was crazy. I started my first Bible Study on CMU's campus and it was a Spanish Bible study so...I was nervous.

I have a BA in Spanish so in theory I'm well versed in the language, but it was very nerve wracking and I was convinced I would be a big fat failure.

And when I brought to prayer, Jesus responded, "so?"

Whaaaaat. Jesus, don't you understand that I can't fail, so much is riding on me and my success. And then I realize how dumb that is, how ridiculous it is for me to expect that my efforts are the only thing that matter. So then I did all that I could to prepare and entrusted the rest into His hands and it went super well. PTL.

Then mi novio arrived in Pittsburgh for a well needed visit. Three months apart is a long time and it was awesome to have him here and to meet the team and meet some of the students I'm working with.

I took one picture the entire time.

Anyway it was great to have him here and I miss him even more now. That's just the way it is, I guess.

Parting point: it's 70 degrees here. 

Praise Jesus.

Have an amazing day everyone!

Since my last post was such a downer and about snot I figured I would link up with Blessed to Be and her Little Happies post.

First!

It is 60 (SIXTY) degrees in Lincoln today and I might just publish this post as is because what on earth can top that. Amen, praise Jesus, thank You. 

I wore birkenstocks without socks and it was glorious.

Second!

Trader Joe's never ceases to get me to buy their stuff. So, my body can't handle fructose which makes drinking Emergen-C a nightmare on my digestion.  Thankfully, good ole Jose delivered with this stuff
