joyful {in black&white}

Today I am filled with joy because of breakfast dates and a husband who loves coffee {almost} as much as me,

weekend fort building {and duct tape}, 

 evening adventures via bike rides,

and the magical light that comes at the end of a storm.

Here's to finding joy in the small things and knowing ultimate joy in the Lord. 

 Rejoice in the Lord always--again I will say, rejoice!

Philippians 4:4

Joyful

Today I am filled with joy. 

I am filled with joy because of big breakfast Saturdays and the start of new traditions. 

I am filled with joy because of opportunities to dress up and free food thanks to the good people at Chickfila. 

I am filled with joy because of homemade fudge and community cafes. 

I am filled with joy because of a roommate who buys me board games to celebrate one month of marriage. 

And I am filled with joy because of late sunsets and someone to share them with. 

“Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day.”
