yeesssss. 9.24.12 can’t come soon enough.

My best Caroline is coming up next week for 9 days of fun, food, capitol hill block party, and vino. And on top of all of this, just found out that my parisian roommates are coming to Seattle for almost a week in August! How did this girl get to be so lucky?

I just like these a lot. 

One of my best friends is currently spending a month in France and as I peruse her blog and all her pictures, I’m having all these flashbacks of my time there.

It’s the area where your parents and grandparents grew up and it’s just as precious today than it was then. The small…

“I can no longer condemn or hate a brother for whom I pray, no matter how much trouble he causes me. His face, that hitherto may have been strange and intolerable to me, is transformed in intercession into the countenance of a brother for whom Christ died, the face of a forgiven sinner.” -Bonhoeffer
