The Alder Collective Link Party #15

February is here, and it's choosing quite the week to start off with! I spent several hours on Saturday snuggling with my parents' new puppy, Bandit. (For a glimpse of just how precious he is, check out my Instagram!) He is quite the little cutie. This week, Aaron and I have been blessed with lots of wonderful intentional time with friends: hours and hours spent sharing meals, beating each other at the "Joker" marble game, and watching hours of meaningful conversation tick by. If I could re-live the last week, I totally would- it was that good. There are many areas that I've been praying for direction in our lives, and it has been a joy and honor to see the Lord answer so clearly in certain areas. Hope you're having a wonderful week! Can't wait to see your posts!
