What a beautiful life.

2013 already has been such a blessing.
I am just overwhelmed by God's continued faithfulness.
in less than 5 months, i will walk the stage and start my journey to forever.
and until then, im just savoring every single second of pure bliss.
This is THE greatest time of my life, and i dont wanna miss it, any of it.
Starting 2013 with a suprise visit from my BFF, was too too awesome.

taking the little time im not working, to spend time with this precious prince, is pure bliss.

and seeing his face light up when i offer to play a game with him. Makes a big sissy feel special!

Spending New Years with my friends, and feeling like a princess when we woke up to this breakfast.
 
 
Just soaking up every second of senior year, spending time with friends and never letting the little things go un-noticed.

snuggling precious sweethearts to make my day go by faster, and melt my heart a little more.

standing in line for 3 hours only to be suprised with Front row seats, to the BIGGEST worship experience ever. totally rad!

Dancing like nobody was watching, when really 20,000 people were. But who cares!

We had such a blast at Winter Jam! If it comes to you, GO!

meeting pretty cute band members and seeing their faces light up when we asked for a picture.
and maybe getting excited about the super hug i got from the cutest one..

"attempting" to argue less and just enjoy the time i do get with my sissy. because neither one of us will admit it, but we're gonna miss each other.

sitting in adoration that i can just call my grandma to have lunch and she doesn't have to drive 4 hours. still getting over God's goodness to our family in 2012!

letting precious girls sit at my desk, because truthfully she's way cuter, and she's way too excited to be in charge! so why not?

savoring my last spirit week and homecoming.

and enjoying our last Friday night pizza tradition of the year.
 
Senior year is flying, 2013 is running off to a start and im just lost in the mix of it all.
 
Life lately has truly been crazy, wonderful, full of excitement, hair ripping good, and full of meltdowns.
 
But God is proving to me that he is outstanding and miraculous and that his grace is sufficient.
Exciting things are coming and i am on the edge of my seat.
 
Have a great weekend friends!
-Austyn

And Even If;

Y'all. its been a while. Holy cow. I was talking with a friend this morning about life and this waiting game of a season that the Lord has me in right now. Waiting for graduation, waiting to know what the rest of my life is going to look like, waiting on contract updates and internship approvals, waiting on interviews, Creation studies to END (forever and ever amen), leases to run out, May to arrive and my next chapter to begin. The whole while I was sitting there discussing the frustration yet Hope that I had in this season I just kept replaying the lyrics to one of my favorite songs "Take courage my heart, stay steadfast my soul He's IN the waiting" He's there friends. He's with you. He's fighting for you, with you. Look next to you, allow yourself to sense His presence as He runs this race right beside you, pushing you on until the very end. Who am I to rush this season the Lord has purposed in my life for go...

We are Family.

All my brothers, sister and me.   A week after leaving my sweet family, they came to visit. Guess they missed me ;)   Their 24 hours here flew by but it was such a refresher and so nice after my first week back. And it makes the month before I see them again, not seem so crazy long.   My siblings and dad had never been to the campus, so we enjoyed touring around and even getting some fun filled hours at the Snowflex. The boys LOVED it. And I just loved them being here to do it with me for once. :)   It was the perfect family weekend.   Now back to those books..   Have a great week y'all! -Austyn

Plans for prosperity and hope..

This morning as Stephen and I listened to Bruno Mars' song "Marry you" and talked sweet talks of pure preciousness he drew my future family. As he drew me, blue as i'll ever be. and my sweet husband. and the bunk beds, treehouses and basements. the staircase leading to the sky and my huge house that really isnt needed.   he also drew two black kids. My Ethiopian babies! Oh how i dream of adopting from Ethiopia. And how precious that he drew them not even knowing i did want to adopt. Seriously, how precious are those little Ethiopian prince/ princess (s). Only two because "i dont want you to work too hard" Be still my heart.   -Austyn :)
