Day out in Bellingham

When Aaron and I lived in Langley, we would often drive down to Bellingham for an afternoon. We would go for a walk around Lake Padden and have supper at La Fiamma. Our conversation at one point or another would lead to how cool it would be to live in Bellingham and how much we loved that community. Yesterday, we had a little outing to Bellingham. We hiked around Lake Padden and ate at La Fiamma. The only difference between the trips a few years ago and yesterday was that we had Montana with us AND we signed a lease on an apartment in Bellingham. CRAZY! It's so exciting to be taking yet another step in our journey and cool to see it come full circle. Little did we know 2 or 3 years ago that we would be moving to Bellingham. It seems God was planting those Bellingham seeds in our hearts. It makes me think of Proverbs 19:21 (from the Message)... "We humans keep brainstorming options and plans, but God's purpose prevails."

Brett Dennen Concert

Last night Aaron and I went to an amazing concert in Vancouver - Brett Dennen. He's a very tall red-head and he danced around the stage barefoot. We had a great night with our friends, Aime and Ashley, and we all really enjoyed the show (despite the annoying girl in the green shirt who jumped on stage with Brett 3 times!).





Another one of our favorite Brett Dennen songs is called "Blessed".
Here's the lyrics to the chorus:
Blessed is this life
and I'm gonna celebrate being alive.
Blessed is this life
and I'm gonna celebrate being alive.

This is our current theme song (I couldn't find a good video of it to put on the blog, but you'll have to check it out on your own!). We put this song on all of the time and the 3 of us dance around like crazy people.
