I hope you all have an amazing weekend!

I love that we’re still soaking up Summer while also looking ahead to the Fall movie season! There’s something so special about enjoying the season we’re in while having a little something to look forward to, too.

On a personal note, it’s been an especially meaningful week of gratitude for me and my family. A few weeks ago, one of my dearest family members had a minor accident, and we’ve been waiting and praying to find out whether surgery would be necessary. This week, we finally received the answer we had been hoping and praying for - surgery will not be needed! Praise Jesus!

I'm feeling above and beyond grateful for this answered prayer. God is so good! I simply had to share this praise report with you all!

If you have a prayer request, please share in comments below.


Blessings on your weekend!
