^^^two "fun" parts of the beginning of the third trimester! I swear this heartburn is crazy, I'm always chomping on some TUMS right after dinner, and as soon as I get into bed. Also, did the glucose test this week... it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.  Just the after taste burns!^^^

my week in iPhone photos

Man this week got away from me, and I haven't posted at all! I'll be playing catch up over the next few days, but still wanted to drop off my weekly pics from my phone so I can look back at all the small moments that make up our life! Hope you've had a good week, and check back for more updates soon!

^^^spent the morning at VBS sharing about church planting in Albany, NY^^^

^^^and then spent the evening popping popcorn for tons of VBS kiddos!^^^

^^^Jeremy and I enjoyed a Gilmore Girls marathon one afternoon. My kind of afternoon!^^^

^^^we went away to Dallas for the night... just because :) Little Maverick will be changing that spontaneous side of us soon, so we thought we'd take advantage of some time off work^^^

^^^celebrated the 4th of July with family and friends!^^^

^^^sometimes Dominos pizza is the only thing that sounds good for dinner^^^

^^^27 weeks! Look how fast that green bar is filling up!^^^

^^^sometime between dinner and bedtime, I had this HUGE craving for Eggo Waffles.  I tried to ignore it and could NOT get them out of my head. So Jeremy to the rescue! He ran to the store and got the waffles and syrup, and man did they hit the spot!^^^

^^^with Jeremy out of school now, we were finally able to enjoy a workout TOGETHER at the gym! Everything is better with your best friend.^^^

^^^enjoyed 56 cent pancakes from IHOP to celebrate their 56th anniversary!^^^

^^^last night, I finished the Hunger Games book, and i highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't read it yet! It was such a good read!^^^

a little taste of the Davis life

Obviously, blogging has fallen down quite a few slots on my lists of priorities, but I do intend to get back into the swing of things soon! Life has been one crazy day to the next crazy day for the last few months, and I am exhausted! Between constant homework, work, church activities, and family time, we are constantly on the go. We are in a VERY busy season of life right now, and most of the times I feel like I'm barely floating above water.

However, with all of that said, we are so blessed and God has been so faithful.  His grace is always sufficient, and somehow we get all of our little "to-do's" checked off our lists.  Jeremy and I have really been focusing on priorities, and the Lord has been showing us that we have two choices... Do alot of things really poorly or do a few things really well.  I have had to learn to say no, and opt out of certain things that just can't be a priority right now.  I have learned that I am more of a people pleaser than I ever thought I was.  Saying no is hard.  Especially when you're saying no to things that you really want to do.  God has graciously shown me that I can resist this season of life or embrace it by prioritizing our time and being faithful with the tasks He has given us.  T.V. is rarely watched in our house, casual reading is almost non-existent, and I don't even remember if we have friends anymore because it has been ages since we have done any real "hanging out"-- at this point, bed time is seriously our favorite part of the day! Although most nights, it's just not long enough.

I don't mean for this to be one big complaining post.  Please do not get me wrong... We are loving life. God is teaching us new things, our faith is being tested, our marriage is being strengthened, and we are learning more and more each day just how dependent we are upon the glorious grace of God.  Life is good.

We will be traveling to New York in just a few weeks to visit the campus Jeremy will be attending next Fall, and get a look around Albany for the first time.  We are thrilled! Jeremy and I would both appreciate your prayers as we get a small glimpse of our soon to be new home town.  It is so very exciting to finally get to see where we will be living and drive around a city we have already fallen in love with.

Eventually I will post the rest of the pictures from our summer, because we had an excellent summer and I want to be able to look back and remember all we did during our last summer in Oklahoma. Check back soon and have a wonderful week!
