i love..

Well, I"m getting back into the swing. Headed out last week for a conference in Orlando for work. I had the honor of being an attendee of a cardiology conference at a Disney World resort. Thus, I enjoyed lots of learning and some Mickey Mouse. I LOVE Disney World. I mean, really what's not to love. It is such a happy place, there are fast rides, songs/dancing, good food, lots of walking. I think I smiled at all corners of that trip. I LOVE smiling.

I do LOVE my friends. The past several weeks I have had such a sweet time with friends here in Dallas. And I felt great love this past weekend on v-day because when I arrived back from my trip, I had several little love notes and gifts awaiting me. I am thankful for new friends and old friends! Friends are just a sweet reminder of how the Lord provides for us. I LOVE His provision for me.

In other news, I am now beginning to work on the project also known as "my second bedroom". :) I have a problem..you see, I LOVE reading design blogs, magazines, etc. I get so inspired, but decorating is not my job, thus I get all of these ideas and can't seem to understand why I can't get them to just *poof* happen. So here is the sad state of the second bedroom...

But never fear, I have inspiration. One of the blogs I follow and can keep straight with on my Google reader..is Young House Love.
Well, on there, they do design boards and one recently was centered around this large wall art of a map! I had already picked out this map for this very room, so when they gave a great paint colors, curtain design, rug, etc. I was smitten! So I look forward to getting this project going soon. I'm getting a fella to come paint a few rooms of the house, while I"m away visiting the fam in March. So I"m excited. Stay tuned about that..

I LOVE to be inspired, whether it be by my friends, family, my desires to be crafty or creative. I am so thankful that I am so complicated and that you LOVE me. :)

This weekend should be fun- filled with friends, baby showers, wedding dress shopping, babysitting, church, lunch with friends and phone dates. I LOVE weekends.
