Unexpected Surprises

 Today is Valentine's Day!

and what a day it has been

1. my computer didn't die from alcohol poisoning! (long story)

2. my secret angel gave me biscotties! (delicious)

3. my awesome boyfriend sent me flowers at work! (completely unexpected!)

I was also excited to see that many people got over the whole boycotting Valentine's Day and chose to celebrate the gift of love that we all have from God.

I am so thankful that God has demonstrated unconditional love to me so that I am able to demonstrate love towards others! Praise the Lord! 

(and now for some pictures) 

Beautiful, no?

 

years in review.

Since I have been delinquent for a few years on this here is a short photo or just description run down of things:

June of 2010 I went to Juarez Mexico with a young adult group in Omaha to build a house with Casas Por Cristo. It was an AMAZING experience but due to my computer crashing a few times my photos are no longer on my computer but on an external hard drive- i will post some as soon as i find the time! :)

My Dad's side of the family got together in June of 2010 for a Kohlmeier Family Reunion. we went to Ohio and had a wonderful time looking at all the beautiful little hiking trails, waterfalls and rock formations. this is just one snap-shot of the whole week and a few pictures to follow that i just really really liked.


I had some pretty cool opportunities to take some "professional" like photos for some people. my absolute favorite was this 3 year old in my congregation for her birthday pictures! I LOVED it and really enjoy looking through her photos! It makes me really want to explore the whole photography thing.


I was unable to go with the family down to Sarah and Nic's for Thanksgiving so I went home with my friend Jeff and had a BLAST taking pictures at his farm in Plainview, NE here are some of my favorites:


And just because the next part of the year is so very special to me i will post a whole new blog about it :)
