virginia is a special place.
why?
from norfolk you can:
jump in your car & in 15 mins you'll find yourself in north carolina drinking a big red soda & frolicking in the outerbanks.
sit on the beach and take the day in.
drive 3 hours north & be surrounded by the blue ridge mountains.
there is no other place like virginia in the south.
this summer i am going to soak up the virginia summer. breath it in and take each day as it comes.

today i found myself picking strawberries (for the first time!) with my best friend sarah.
this girl always reminds me that each day is a gift, and it is an adventure.
the fence that we were posing by actually had an electrical shock on it.. how do i know that? i leaned on it and got electrocuted!

this summer is going to be like no other,
i can feel it.

in the spring i feel as if my senses get heightened. the air is intoxicated with new smells such as sweet honey suckle or fresh cut grass. everything is greener, richer.

i am thankful for spring, because God just gives me a better appreciation of His creation. and that it is the perfect picture that He makes everything new, everything beautiful.
