wiww~ blog sugar weekend wear

i'm linking up with my s.i.l., lindsey

{who i love.  a whole lot}

for another edition of wiww.

i stepped out of my wardrobe comfort zone 

and into my 

i-wish-i-could-pull-that-look-off  

zone this week, 

and wore skinny jeans most days with cowgirl boots. 

{i am from the "cowboy capitol of the world," and should be able to pull that look off right?}

BUT,

you won't know whether i pulled it off or not

because i didn't get any pix.

i'll just have to wear the same outfits i wore last week this week and wiww them next week.

{did you get that?}

okay enough about what i wore that i didn't take pix of. 

here's what i did wear and who i wore it with

{because i got to be with some amazing people this week}

i wore this dress w/ these shoes.

to have dinner with my friend, beth, friday evening.

{melanie, beth, and i at "big emily's" wedding in 2007}

beth  lives in the middle of cali.,

and generously allowed me to crash at her place friday on my way to blog sugar. 

we snuck away from her darling family and had dinner together at p.f. changs.

yummmmy. 

but even more delicious than our dinner was our conversation.

we talked about God the entire time.

{sorry mr. chang for occupying our table 3+ hours} 

God alive and moving.

it was so good for my soul, 

and the perfect start to kick off my blog sugar weekend.

this photo from our morning together sums up the entire weekend for me

EVERY SINGLE  woman i spent this sweet weekend with

inspired me

by the ways they

intentionally

SHOW UP FOR LIFE.

they embrace who God has uniquely created them to be

in their blogs, 

then use their blogs

for His BIG glory.

i'm realizing that i too need to embrace who God has 

uniquely created me to be.

 that i need to

SHOW UP

for whatever it is He wants to do here

at

Victory Rd.

for

His Glory.
