so as the week went by there was much to recall, much to laugh about, and much to enjoy. here are a few more of my highlights from the week as well as reflections in general:

- God blesses us with money for us to give to His kingdom – as well as enjoy for the fruits of our labor. i did so sunday evening with a 40 minute foot massage in addition to a regular pedicure. it was delightful.

- the conference went great. really. lots of prayers answered. praise God.

- i lost an attendee this week. he was a preacher out of massachusetts. he was a good man & the world is a better place for having him here the time they did. my heart breaks for his family – although we do not mourn like those who have no hope. we rejoice knowing where he is at.

- my boss took us to some really cool places & moment after moment i was thankful for the place God has me – work, city, etc.

- i was flattered with having multiple requests for dates, numbers, etc. it’s funny how the people you are around in your day-to-day hesitate to ‘make a move’ yet when you meet someone out of your norm life you both realize that this may be your only chance so you must seize the moment – or it passes you by. i am hoping for something deeper in tulsa though so for the time being san fran was nothing more than flattering.

- i was blessed with a facial in the hotel spa – loved. it.

- monterey with b & amelia…amazing best friend & beautiful daughter…love them both so much

- i love my ca family

- upon entering carmel:

bc: i feel like i’m entering jurassic park
bh: that’s because there are dinosaurs here

[awkward pause]

bc: wait. seriously? like dead ones in the hills?
[awkward pause]
bh: no. [laughter] there are no dinosuars

- i met the coolest man on this earth on the ride back from sfo. he is a consultant to vineyards…if he wasn’t 20 years older, almost engaged with children i think i would have married him right there.

- don’t do anything you’ll regret later…even if that means not doing the ‘good’ thing…sometimes you just need to let things be – for that could be the right thing

- rest – even during vacation

- no matter what the temperature is, the beach is always beautiful…even if this means having 3 layers of clothing on so you can go barefoot in the sand.

- dad: i wanted to tell you, you can date him
bc: wait…what? how do you know him?
dad: it doesn’t matter, just know i’m ok with it.
bc: ok. thanks?
dad: as long as you promise NEVER to get in another hot air balloon EVER again…then you can date. if you break this…all bets are off. So go ahead & date him.
bc: [uncontrollable laughter]

- {all at diffferent times} bh: i’ve been praying for your future husband…how is that coming?
bb: bc, i’ve been praying for you daily & your heart. praying for God to bless you with a man after God’s heart.
ac: bc, i’ve been praying for your future husband.
bc: thank you God for these friends that pour their love over me thru prayer. it’s the sweetest act of love i encounter.

- don’t ask me to hold my hand…just go ahead & grab it…i promise, i’ll respect you still

- the grand hyatt’s are my very favorite line of hotels now….$166 later & i still say that

- Easter slovak tradition lives on…love my goofy family traditions

- my couch never felt so welcoming as when i laid on it 10 days later…love being home.
