Mmmmmmmm!!

This might sound weird, but I recently "rediscovered" my sense of smell. I forgot how much I enjoy perfume and flowers and scented candles! Stopped by Yankee Candle today and picked up a "Pineapple Gardenia" candle that was on sale. Not usually a fan of gardenias alone, but the two fragrances together remind me of the sweet smell of Hawaiian air!

Don and I went down to Destin two weeks ago to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. We splurged a bit on a few romantic dinners and a gulf-front room at the Four Points Sheraton. All we had on our agenda was just relaxation time! Laying on the beach and around the pool, eating, watching TV. I dare say we were successful! And Don surprised me with a beautiful pair of diamond earrings! I'd always wanted a pair but figured those were years away, but he was squirreling away money and managed to buy them without my knowing about it. All in all, it was a terrific time!

The children's choir at church has been keeping me pretty busy lately. This is my first year leading it, therefore every rehearsal is a learning experience! I am continually searching for ways to make practice not only fun and productive, but a blessing for them as well. I've never thought of myself as being particularly "good" with kids but it seems to get a little bit easier each time! Right now, I'm working on developing interpretive movement to Chris Tomlin's "Indescribable". It's coming together and I can't wait for the kids to perform it!
