15 DC | Dinner for 5

I hope everyone had a fantastic, safe, and memorable 4th of July!  
I think so often we take for granted all of the many sacrifices men and women have endured since our nation began. Praise God we have people willing to lay down their lives for ours…it is completely humbling. 
<3 
What did your 4th look like? Mine…hung out with my grandma and Maria, went grocery shopping, hung out by the pool, watched Vampire Diaries…yeah. 
. . .
Onto day 5 of the 15 day challenge 

Life of LoveIf you could have dinner with any 5 people who would they be? 

Well, this one was pretty easy.
[1 . & 2.] My Parents…

[i love these old pictures of them!]
I would love to be able to sit down with them, ask them a ton of questions, laugh, listen to old memories. There are so many little things that i took for granted or that i didn’t think about asking (i was 13 and 16 at the time of their passing[s]). It would be great to see their smiles, memorize their laughs, and give them thousands of hugs!
[3.] Moses…
I would love to sit down with him and hear all of the stories of how God worked through his life and ministry. To hear first hand how Moses felt, what all he saw, the way the Lord used him…i mean seriously i would spend the whole day listening to him.
[4.] Bryce Avary…

[image found here]
He is the frontman (and really the whole band) of The Rocket Summer. I’ve had the privilege of seeing him perform once and getting to talk to him briefly. On his albums he plays all of the instruments and does all vocals…to say the man is talented is an understatement. He is probably one of my favorite lyricists of this generation and his music completely resonates with me. I would love to sit down and talk about music, theology, Jesus, life, and random stuff.
[5.] Elijah…
Out of the Bible, you know one of the two guys that the Lord took before they passed away.
I would LOVE to hear their stories, and let them give me a little heads up. 🙂 ha.
. . .
So, yes those are my 5 people. There are tons of others that i would love to sit down with for dinner/coffee/what’have’you. Jesus of course is all in the mix…but i know i will see Him one day (as i will everyone else on this list) in Heaven.
. . .
Remember when i mentioned here that i was going to be doing a photoshoot?
Well, i’ll give you a little sneak with one of the photos.
Susan, with Susan Lloyd Photography was the photographer and Shayla Battle was the stylist.
Shayla is starting an orginization called the Sassi Lady Stying Squad, where she will be working with the every day woman to come into your home, help organize your closet, and help you pair up outfits with clothes you already own. She is FANTASTIC!
They came by my house, Shayla picked out a dress, heels, and accessories that i already owned and went to work on my hair and makeup. It was so much fun!
Let’s get one thing straight very quickly, i am not a model and it makes me a little self-conscious in front of a professional camera. However i’ve known Susan for years and she makes me feel 100% comfortable and confident.
I try to always dress modestly and this dress was only 2-3 inches above my knee while standing and completely covered the chest area. I believe that being classy and sexy comes from respecting yourself and your body…aka not letting it all hang out.
I once heard somebody say “If it’s not on the menu, cover it up” and i 100% believe that. I always tell my girls (students in youth group) that if you don’t want somebody/anybody touching it (skin) then keep it covered. To feel classy, sexy, and confident i don’t need to “flaunt what i’ve got” i need to love myself, know why and who i’m living for, and not treat myself with any disrespect.
Modest is most definitely hottest. <3
 Here is that sneak peek…be nice! 🙂

. . .
Happy Thursday!

    I had never heard those takes on modest dress! I think they are great and I am definitely going to keep them in mind. I always try to dress modestly, I just hadn't thought of it quite that way before.

    Can't wait to see more of your photoshoot!
