Hello, Sunday.

Sunday: The best day of the week, obviously.

Hi, I just really like love Sundays.
The peace,
the spirit,
and the calm that they bring helps me relax from the week before,
and prepare for the week ahead.

It's been a lovely week full of friends, food, and studying.

It's fine that I went to the MOA twice this week.
The first time with Nathan...

And the second with our newly established lunch group..



I was also a regular at the library as I studied for midterms and worked on papers.
This is me and Amy last night when we first got to the library:


And this...is after a few hours...


We found the weirdest little studying place, and had the whole thing to ourselves.
It was pretty nice.


We established that we were SNLs.
Either Saturday Night Losers, 
OR Saturday Night Learners.
It's likely that we were both.

Other highlights of the week included:

  • Visiting my lovely grandmother (she gave me a ring that she got from Florence Italy when she was just sixteen. ♥)
  • Thrifting at Savers. (Well that's always a highlight.)
  • Driving up the canyon for a photo shoot with my peeps.


Here are a few of my favorites from the shoot.

Amy, the leaf princess.

Love these cats 


Such a beautiful family.

Just observe the pure joy on their faces. 
And finally, Becca frolicking in the back ground.


It was such a good Sunday. I felt like the talks and speakers were speaking directly to me.  

I especially loved the talk our bishop gave about Faith. He quoted Hebrews 11:1 - 


"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."


He said we could substitute ASSURANCE in the place of SUBSTANCE.
As we have faith in Christ, we can have the assurance that He is there for us.
That He knows us, and hears us, and loves us.

I know that Heavenly Father hears and answers our prayers.
I know that He is aware of our struggles, our pains, and our suffering.
I know that through faith, we can escape this mortal world and live for eternity in a state of perfection with Him.

I hope you had a great Sabbath Day too. ♥
