When Life Gives you Lemons...

Hi Loves,

Today was a very special day for me :)

Ever felt like you met an angel? My angel came to me to teach me a few things.

The biggest lesson she taught me was "When life gives you lemons baby, you make sure you use those lemons to make lemonade!" The ingredients for the best lemonade are: prayer, faith and patience.

That angel showed me that life can throw many things, but with that lemonade, you just pray, have faith and watch God work! For example, I drove her to a special hospital to prepare for an 8-hour surgery. I prayed all the way to work, because I was so nervous. One hour later, she called me to come back or send someone else because they didn't have to do it!

Thank God for a praying woman. That angel, is my favorite person EVER, my gram! Today is her 17th Pastoral Anniversary. Happy Anniversary gram! :)

"Be an angel to someone else whenever you can, as a way of thanking God for the help your angel has given you."

Hi Loves,

Happy Friday! Ever had the longest day ever, but still need to get out???? That was soooo me last night! I woke up at 7am, came home at 9:30pm. I managed to get dressed and out of the house by 10:30pm, just to get back home at 2am.

If anyone knows me, they know this is not me at all! Not Courtney getting ready in an hour?

To make this happen, I went for the look that comes natural to me, color-blocking. I wanted neutral tones with a touch of boldness. I wore a blue-green asymmetrical skirt with a soft, salmon color top. To complete the look, I added a neutral bag and kept it simple by making sure my sandals and top matched.  



This season calls for Tory Burch sandals, something I collect every summer!

Top-Kohl's

Skirt- Macy's

Bag- Aldo

Shoes- Tory Burch
