Can you believe it? Today is the last day of August! Already! August was the month that saw end of summer and the beginning of school. I can say {without batting an eyelash} that this month was very very full with new things that I fell in love with. =)
A huge highlight at the beginning of the month was…camping! Oh.my.goodness – I had a blast! I was half scared that I would hate it, and that I would be a complete Grinch because of my lack of sleep. I had no clue what to expect because it was my first time. I am happy to announce, however, that I was not a grumpy pants. =) {in my opinion} To summarize my week in a few words = bear, stars, yummy camp food, greasy hair, rain, more rain, camp fire, amazing views, cool friends, Psalm 19, shot blocks, getting wet, hot chocolate, laughing, marshmallows, and inside jokes. It was a success, and I guess I am not a complete city girl after all.
Buuut…I do want to talk about my August Favorites. So, if you care to know what I was gravitating towards, then continue reading. :D

Quote: “American Christians have fallen for a counterfeit peace and joy. Instead of going to God and understanding experientially that in His presence is the fullness of joy –we go to Hollywood, we go to the music industry, we go to professional sports –and that’s where we get our rush and our sense of fulfillment.” ^Leonard Ravenhill
Goal for next month: Not to be one of the American Christians that Mr. Ravenhill was talking about Psalm 16:11..."You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy ; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore!"
Here's to another amazing month! CHEERS!

What is your favorite Owl City song? I love The Yacht Club and Honey and the Bee. Have you seen any of his videos?
I love Owl city as well, LOVE them.
I like the Yacht Club, Alligator Sky, and Galaxies the best right now, but all of them are pretty good! I have only seen his first videos - but I am going to check it out again right now!
