The Life of a Biologist...
Tuesday, instead of having lecture, my plant morphology class went to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens! It was really nice, although it snowed on us almost the whole time we were there!!!! It's not every day you get to walk around and look at beautiful flowers for a college course :) Here are a few pictures of some interesting plants that we're studying!

Heliconia
Orchids

D-L time
Danial and I kicked off our marriage counseling last Thursday with our new pastor, Pastor Fred Goodwin, at The Church of Messiah! We have quickly fallen in love with him and the new church and are really excited to get some great, Godly advice from him on how to make our relationship stronger in Christ and equipped for Marriage!
The first session was kind of a casual get together, sort of to kick things off! During this talk, Danial and I quickly realized how busy we both had become and had started to neglect our 'quality time'! Him and I have always set Thursdays aside for him and I time, but lately we have filled those days with 'things we need to get done together'! while talking with Pastor Fred, we realized that we had not been spending quality Danial and Lindsay time and it had really started putting a damper in our relationship. It was kind of humerus because he pointed out that for the first time, since he had met us, we were sitting with a little distance between us. so...... I say all of that to say, Pastor Fred put a calendar in our faces and asked us when we were going to set some DL (Danial and Lindsay )time up. Meaning.... we weren't going to do any wedding planning, run any errands, BUT to spend time with each other alone!
Today when Danial got off work, which he had to be done by 2, b/c that was when our "appointment" started, we went to the top of Kennesaw Mountain and had a picnic and then went and walked at the park! We had such a great time and it was such a beautiful day! We realized how much we had been missing DL time!!! It was really crazy b/c I had a really easy week of school this week and Danial didn't have much work, so we actually got to have several nights this week to relax together.
It was nice to see how God got us back on track and made us realize how important it is to slow down and not only take some time for Him, but also for the two that he put together!!!!
