Love Like Jesus

*this post is meant to release steam in a helpful way so if you don't want to hear me rant you might want to leave. consider yourself warned*

Let's start at the beginning....a couple of days ago my friend Racheal and I were discussing tatoos we wanted and decided since we both wanted one on our foot that we should go together for moral support.....you know since it's suppose to hurt...bad. So today that is exactly what we did. Didn't think much more about it because it is our bodies we are talking about. That is until someone commented on Racheal's facebook post basically saying he thought she was a good person and christian..guess not. And I started getting negative remarks as well

That was enough to get this lady going.

I know you have your people who want to pick and choose scripture and use it to judge the actions of people and I can handle that all day long....it's the ones who take people and put them on a pedistool and because they do one thing they don't agree with everything else they have done in the past doesn't matter anymore. Forget that we are hardcore worship junkies who are 110% sold out for Jesus... we "disfigured" our temple so now nothing else matters. Forget that what we did choose were two things that we strive to live by because all that matters now is the way we reflect on them. If me choosing to tell the world that wherever He goes I am going to follow Him by placing it on my body offends you I am not the one with the problem here.....

I am done now.

On to the pictures :)

What I'm Loving

I have to admit that I am somewhat of a blog stalker and the What I'm Loving posts on peoples blogs(especially this lady's) are my favs. So this week I decided to join in on the fun. Here are a few things I am loving at the moment.....

Siblings playing good together for long periods of time

 Little girls in over sized tshirts and healthy snacks after a weekend filled with sweets

Packages that hold the very lens I've been swooning over for months and a new table for the dinning room

Spontaneous play dates to the park and the obvious difference between boys and girls :)

What are you loving this week????

New Beginnings

This week is a week of multiple beginnings for the Benefield family.

First and foremost the hubster starts his new job. No words can describe how excited both of us are for this new adventure.

Second, this week marks the beginning of hardcore potty training. We have been doing it on and off for the past couple months and she's got the idea. So I have decided to stay home bound this week and knock this next step of her turning 3 off our list.

And last but not least.....wait for it.....I have finally splurged and bought a blog design from this fabulous website. I don't usually spend the money on my templates but after I saw my sisterwifes new one last week I just couldn't help myself. Its perfectly simple and so very me and I can't wait to go live with it :)

So what's new in your life???

First Snips

I have been itching to get little lady's hair cut for a while now. I kept telling myself it would help it grow, would be healthier, and lets be honest...what's cuter than a little girl in a bob??? I had finally worked up the nerve only to find out that the hubster would not have it. That is until I came across this picture on Pinterest....

After that he had to admit it was pretty stinkin cute and if I must then I could go ahead and do it. I immediately called my trusty hair dresser kayla and scheduled the appointment for today and let me tell you....I could not be more in love :)

First Day March

I love looking at my sister-wife's first day post every month so when she decided to make it a linky party I knew I had to jump on board.....even if that meant emerging after a two month break :) and it just so happens that our first day was spent with the one and only. Can't wait to see your "firsts" for the month :)
