Weekend Recap

Friday night, CT and I did a little babysitting. We had the luxury of hanging out with little miss Aynslee, and this was something I had looked forward to all week!

Her parents work 3rd shift, so we got to do all the fun stuff with her: feeding, playing, bath time, prayers, etc. 

After bath time she hung out with CT while he crushed some candy.

I love how focused they both are on the game!

I also did a little bit of shopping this weekend. 

If you like a good deal, I advise you to head to target ASAP! Most of their summer sandals and wedges are on clearance and then an additional 20% off on top of that. 

$8

Can't beat that!

I also stopped by the Christian book store to pick up some tabs.

I have such the hardest time finding the books in the bible so this will hopefully make it easier! 

I'm obsessed. 

PS- Keep an eye out for the new blog design. I'm hoping it makes it's debut by the end of the week!

Weekly Inspiration [8]: She Reads Truth Daily Devotional

I was just introduced through Instagram to the wonderful devotional: 

She Reads Truth. 

It is a community of women that strive to have a better relationship with the Lord through a daily devotion. What I like most is it's not just a daily devotional but a place where women can interact with one another. There is a place for comments and questions so you can converse with other ladies about what you had read that day. 

They are currently working on Women in the Bible- Part 3, but because I just started, I went back to the beginning for Women in the Bible- Part 1 and I am just now finishing it up. 

So far we have discussed Eve, Sarah (Sarai), Hagar, Lot's Wife, and Rebekah. 

All these ladies have their own struggles, that most any woman can find similarities with. Well I know I can. I fight the same battles as they did, and reading their struggles has really made me more aware of what I need to work on to be a better Christian woman. 

Just some note taking from the talk on Sarah:

On Lot's Wife:

I myself am a lot like Sarah: I have a major struggle with patience. 

I myself have similarities to Lot's Wife: I sometime look back thinking 'what if'.

Do you have any of these same struggles? 

What woman in the bible are you most like?

Slight Obsession

Hello. My name is Tiffany and I'm addicted to pens.

Literally. 

I'm always on the look out for the best colors, the ones that don't bleed through to the next page, and the ones that write oh so smooth! 

It's a sickness. 

I am a color code of life I have and ever since I was a little girl.

Check out my stash that I carry around in my purse with me at all time.

Yikes! 

My Favorites:

Pilot Precise V5 Extra Fine

I LOVE these bad boys. 

They are such vibrant colors, they have an extra fine tip, and they don't bleed. I primarily use these for writing in my bible and when I'm trying to write really nice and professional.

PaperMate Flair Medium

These pens have a felt tip and are medium point. They are a tad bit thicker and bleed just a little bit. I primarily use these for writing in my planner and during my daily devotional journaling. 

Bic Cristal Medium

I use to use these pens a lot more then I do now. They were my go to pens for all of my school notes. They write so smooth and the flow is really good. What I don't like, is sometimes the ink collects at the tip. If the pen hadn't been used in a while and you don't clean it prior to use, it will leave a glop of ink on the first word you write. I mostly use these now for fun letters and during my daily devotional journaling. 

Pilot G2

I only have the black pen from this set, but I really love it. It's more of a gel pen that is an extremely rich, black color. It doesn't bleed and it writes extremely smooth. This is my go to black pen! Just be careful and let it dry a second or two before touching it, because it will smear everywhere if you don't. 

What pens do you adore?

I'm always on the look out for new ones to add to my stash. =))
