I've decided to start a new blog theme called 5 Things I'm Loving This Week. I'll write this blog on either Saturday or Sunday every-other week, discussing the top 5 things I fell in love with that particularly week! Here is the first addition!
5.) The new Caribou Coffee in Ankeny, IA
It's super cute and I walked out not only with a coffee (and a soulmate for my coffee, also known as a pastry item) but also a bunch of cute decorating ideas and things to think about. They have a chalk board for customers to write on called Chalk Thoughts, this week the Chalk Thoughts theme was to define relax. I wrote "putting yourself in a place where you do not have the ability to complete or further work projects" & I just love how Caribou's coffee cups and napkins have cute sayings, my favorite one today was "Accidentally" let your dog have a bite. Some of the sayings can really make you think & you can never have too many hhmmmmm moments!
4.) Goodreads
I know another social networking site is seriously the last thing anyone needs right now but, this site is sort of like browsing shelves from my own couch! Goodreads <- click on the link to check it out and if you want to connect with me my username is niccilynnwhit.
3.) Pictures of Awesome Libraries
They just make me smile and feel at peace.
2.) The Godmother
A soap that smells like bubble gum and leaves me never wanting to get out of the shower! YUM!
1.) Life In General
Even though life lately has been filled with a lot of stress and uncertainty, I'm not sure I would change it for the world. The challenges that lay ahead of me are going to help mold who I am and what my future family is meant to become. It's going to land me (and us) in a solid place with a new adventure and I couldn't ask for more than that. No matter how often I'm reminded it's not perfect or met people who serve as challenges with the intention of tearing me down, life is still good and I know God has a purpose, a plan, and a timeline. And for that? I'm grateful.
