a life full of laughter



No one looks back and remembers the nights they had plenty of sleep. 

These rainy skies didn't stop us from having fun. In fact, I haven't laughed this much in a long time. I don't think I can even adequately describe our experiences from the past couple days, but it contained the most random assortment of boys, struggling to pop popcorn, fitting way too many people on one coach, talking over movies, spending extended hours at Zupas, capturing candid shots, shopping in a high-class Walmart, ditching McDonald's on a front porch, staying up late, laughing too hard and creating some pretty great memories. 
 Life is such a wonderful thing. There is far too much to be thankful for to spend time wallowing in the misery of everything that's gone wrong. Pick yourself up out of the gutter, brush off the hurt feelings, the frustrations, and the disappointments, put on a big pretty smile, and go out and face the world. There is so much to be experienced, and there is so much to feel, to do, and to learn. So get rid of the things that are holding you back and keeping you from progressing, then cling to the things that give you the wings to fly. Life is a lot shorter than you think, so enjoy every waking moment of it.
