Saying goodbye to winter and all the fun, snowy ad Saying goodbye to winter and all the fun, snowy adventures I had this yearโ›„๏ธ๐ŸŽฟ๐Ÿ›ท

๐Ÿš™Road trips along the coast  Life has been such a rollercoaster ๐ŸŽข for me over the past year and it doesnโ€™t look like itโ€™s slowing down (and I donโ€™t hate it).....a few months ago I told myself I wanted to change my life so that is exactly what I am trying do, if not for anything else for the memories Iโ€™ll make while trying ๐Ÿ˜ƒ  What is something you have always wanted to do? Have you started working towards it yet?

When you first realized that dream or promise in y When you first realized that dream or promise in your heart, you were excited; you told people what you were going to do. But now itโ€™s been months, maybe years, and things havenโ€™t turned out like you planned. Today, believe you are closer now to seeing it come to pass than youโ€™ve ever been. Youโ€™re coming into a high time. High time is when things suddenly change in your favor, when blessings chase you down. High time is when your healing shows up, you break the addiction, you meet the right person. God makes things happen that you could never make happen.  If youโ€™re going to see this high time, you have to wake up out of your sleep. That means to get your passion back. Start believing again, start expecting things to change, start talking like itโ€™s going to happen. You canโ€™t be complacent and step into the fullness of what God has in store. My question is, are you awake?  ******
Some days I need a little pick me up and today was the perfect day to wake up reading this message in my inbox ๐Ÿ’—  Who else needed a little pick me up?

When was the last time you did something for the f When was the last time you did something for the first time?  I love new experiences and promised myself this year at least once a month Iโ€™ll try something new.  This month itโ€™s National Parks ๐Ÿ˜† Iโ€™ve been in Utah for a week and Iโ€™m currently heading to Zion for the first time.  Two days to see it all and the weather is ๐Ÿ‘Œ  Have you been? What should I see first?
