Hey everyone! I am so sorry that I have been missing in action... Over the long Valentine's weekend I went to winter camp with my church and got caught up with the craziness of life after that... but I am so glad to be back! Camp was amazing, going up to the mountains... fresh air and lots of time to spend worshiping and enjoying God's presence! Hope you enjoy today's Monday mood board!

{ Cucumber Salad }
Lately I have been thinking about this summer and trips we will be going on. One that is particularly on my mind is one we endure very year... Tennessee! It may sound strange to go to Tennessee in the middle of summer, but we have a really fun family reunion there, getting a chance to see a whole bunch of amazing family members we hardly ever get to see. Telling stories, enjoying each others company, and eating plenty of food! You gotta love it!
One restaurant we always go to (and I mean multiple times during our stay. We are obsessed because they aren't in our neck of the woods) is The Cracker Barrel! Yumm... Southern comfort food. The best (besides homemade)!
Sooo... based off of their cucumber salad, which I love to order when we go, I made my own version. It was great! All you do is combine cucumber, tomato, onion, a sprinkle of feta cheese, and a splash of balsamic vinegar. Highly recommended!

{ Cancer's Hidden Blessings: See & Sip }
Today I took my dad to one of his post-chemo appointments... Something I have decided I don't mind helping out with... Thankfully UCI Medical Center has a beautiful campus! It is actually fun to just go and sit outside and enjoy the scenery. I had more time to kill than expected, as they decided to hook him up with an hour drip of fluids... With the room pretty full, I decided to go down to the cute little coffee shop right outside the building. (Another major plus!) While sitting there, sipping my French Vanilla Ice Blended coffee (yum!) I was thinking about some new things to blog or reflect on in my life. Hmm... I decided that I should start journaling/blogging every "hidden blessing" moment that I come across. That way I (and anyone reading who is going through a similar situation and needs to see a glimmer of light in what can be such a dark tunnel) can visually look back and see all of the small blessings God has hidden beneath the words "cancer" and "chemo". My mom has also helped to inspire the idea, as she has started writing down the things that she/we can still do while going through this adventure. For example, taking a bubble bath with the lights dimmed and a candle burning... Going shopping for a few hours... Or enjoying a delicious cup of coffee. Even bigger trips such as going to Disneyland and major traveling trips (that we will do when summertime comes around) are even more special and meaningful to us. These little reminders will pop up every now and then on the blog so keep an eye out! Thanks for listening!

{ Hello Again }
I am back! Sorry I have not been posting much lately... One-by-one my whole family has been hit with a bad cold and I finally got it this past week. Yuck! It also didn't help that finals were this week. All is going well though and luckily I am finally starting to feel better... inspiration and creativity is filling my soul once again! Hope no one else has faced the bug going around! Have a great day!
