Please, don't ask why, no one quite knows the reason

Yesterday, I got to spend time with some amazing friends from mc! It was a beautiful thing! I went shopping... I am pretty sure that I have gone shopping every single day.. I'm sick of it! I went to my college Christmas party for my church and we played a murder mystery game(I didn't kill Santa!)
Ohhhh, and the night before that, i saw black swan.INTENSE. I needed to watch sesame street or something after that. I also got to Skype with Chesney, my wonderful friend from school. Love. Weird interjections but whatever.
I was reading my Bible and just randomly came across Ephesians 5:1-2 and paul talks about being imitators of Christ and how we are supposed to live a life of love. I got chills because these verses were not in my mind whenever I came up with this blog name. Ahhh God is so good.
This morning, after being woken up by my parents at the bright and early hour of 7:00 (im in college here!) I went to mobile, al with my dad and sister to get some shopping done while my parents car got serviced. We got to eat at panera bread and got bagels to have for breakfast in the morning! (cue hallelujah chorus) while i was eating i got a phone call from one of my friends and it was so refreshing. Short and refreshing.
Then, mom and i went shopping for my sister and my baby cousin! Everything is bought! On my end anyway. I went to the Disney store and I felt like a child again and now i want to go to Disney World. It was just so happy in there. My favorite thing about today was seeing all of the husbands sitting on benches waiting on their wives to finish their shopping. I hope my husband will be that patient with my whenever I shop!
I wore my grinch shirt today while was shopping. Not because i am a Grinch but because that is the BEST Christmas movie. Normally people compliment it. And the lady at the Disney store did. But not the shopperat tjmaxx. No. I believe i overheard her saying "don't you hate it when you see grinch things?" merry Christmas to you too, lady!
I'm in love with this time of year. The house always smells like something is cooking on the stove or baking in the oven. I'm just waiting on it to get cold!

Explanation

This is my first blog post. After much deliberation, i have decided to be named the "mirrored painting" I know it is kinda strange and i was scared that it might be a tad bit deep. But, i figure that i am a mirrored painting of what Christ is. Although i am never going to be a perfect reflection of Him, i am going to be a reflective painting of Him though the things that I do in this life.
I'm super excited about blogging. It's going to be so much fun and I am pretty sure that this makes me somewhat "hip"

I just wish that i had a digital SLR camera to accompany it. But I'm okay with my little point and shoot.
Really.
