this weeks miscellanys . . .

1} I have finally come to the conclusion that I do not have the gift of gardening. I grew a few radishes & a few cucumber plants. That's it. {although, if I'm being honest, it's probably just due to the fact that I'm totally lazy!}

2} I purchased a "swim dress" this week. {Please hold the laughs & the 'Granny' comments.} As you know from my modesty post, I was looking for a functional, modest bathing suit this year & I found one - bonus: it's actually cute! I've gotten several compliments on it. So, there . . . you can be cute & actually cover your body at the same time!

3} I'm not a big Third Day fan {that guys voice drives me crazy!} but their song Revelation is speaking volumes to me in this season of my life. You should give it listen.

4} I bought the cutest, dulled silver locket at the dollar store the other day for 50 cents. {50% off day!} Perfect for pictures of my little treasures.

5} My grandmother joined facebook last week. This set into motion a chain of events that is mind boggling to me. Long story short - a friend's mother here, where we live, noticed my g.mother's last name; said that was her maiden name & that her ancestry went back to TN {luckily, she is a big genealogy buff} . . . turns out our 5th great grandfather is the same man! How crazy is that???!! And what are the odds that we would ever meet??! Crazy!

6} We are leaving for our youth summer trip this Friday & I am SOOOOO excited!

{Wow, I did 6 randoms today!}

Happy Monday!
