Adventures of TinTin and dreaming

tonight my wonderful husband and i watched Stephen Spielberg and Peter Jackson's "The Adventures of TinTin".  it was so wonderful!  we were so caught up in this wonderful animated adventure.  it was such a beautiful and happy movie.  we then spent the rest of our night watching the "behind the scenes" footage.  we are such nerds!  i will say, it is nice to have someone who enjoys the same nerdy things that you do.  we kept finding ourselves hitting pause so we could discuss our ideas and thoughts on the movie.  we are always so stirred by great movies,  by the end of it we are so excited and dreaming of our future projects.  i often find myself dreaming about some day, after finishing a huge film project with my husband, looking back on nights like tonight and remembering how inspired we were and eager to make something wonderful.  i often feel like we are nowhere near accomplishing those dreams but i do know, without a doubt, that we are on the right path and are going to accomplish them!  God has been so faithful to us throughout the years and continues to show us His faithfulness.  i know that as long as we keep our desires and dreams under the Lord, He will bless us.  i am so very excited to see where these crazy big dreams of ours take us and where God carries us together as husband and wife!  yay to big dreams and good movies!

melt down

well tonight was one of those nights were you just have a huge melt down for no good reason. it seemed like every life obstacle and hurt in my heart came overflowing out of me and i couldn't control it.  i have been unhappy lately.  with who i am and who i have let myself become.  i have been blaming myself and been believing that i can't do anything to change my current situations.  luckily,  my husband was there to speak truth into my hurting and melted heart.  he told me that i have been believing a lie about myself that simply isn't true.  that i am capable of changing my circumstances and that i can do anything.  that i am beautiful and loved far beyond all the stars in the galaxy. he sat there and spoke truth that i so desperately needed.  he sat there while i cried and he hugged me.  i am so very thankful for this man.  without him i would still be a melted down mess.
