Heart Day

Happy Valentine's Day!!

Although the thermometer is resting at just above one degree, you wouldn't know how cold it is outside because of how warm it is in the house!!

I figured I would start a blog series on "A Few of My Favorite Things"! (Cue in Sound of Music Song)












Here are A Few of My Favorite Things from this week!

1. KIND Bars: I love that these are tasty and healthy bars! They are sweet and made with ingredients that you can pronounce (so says the company). They have made for a perfect between classes snack.

2.With the arrival of various tour groups back on campus, there have been several concerts this week! I love being able to go to so many cool musical concerts throughout the school year at Luther. There is seriously so much talent at this school and it amazes me to be surrounded by it. This is Nordic Choir singing at their Homecoming Concert after they got back from Tour.

3. Each year, my Outreach group at school leads a retreat at Sugar Creek Bible Camp in Wisconsin, right along the Mississippi. This marks year number three going to the same retreat with the same retreat. It was terrific to spend time with these wonderful people!

Three hours of broom-ball and tubing later!

4. Story People. This company is based out of Decorah, and the artist, Brian Andreas creates some creative artwork with adorable quotes! I get the story of the day in my inbox and it is always something to cheer you up!

5. The Symphony Concert! My housemate, Halle, was on tour with the Symphony Orchestra in Vienna, Austria, and they also put on their Homecoming Concert. Such beautiful music!

I hope you have a wonderful Valentine's Day!!!
