http://lovealexlew.blogspot.com/2011/02/blizzard-of-2011.html
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. The Blizzard of 2011. The Oklahoma Blizzard of 2011 hit early Tuesday morning. School was cancelled all week. Oh yes, I had ambitious plans of devoting hours upon hours to A). LSAT studying, B). working out, and C). maintaining healthy eating habits. Actually, who am I kidding, I've never had healthy eating habits]. 1) An overabundance of sleep. 2) Season 1 of Gossip Girl. Travel templa...

You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. Febuary 12th, 2011. Several weeks ago, following Donald Miller's suggestion, I read Max Lucado's Outlive Your Life. The novel follows the stories found in the book of Acts and makes the Biblical events and people incredibly relevant to today's globalized world. If you are an adventure-seeker wanting to know how to follow Christ in a broken society - this book's for you! God Gave Me You.

The City Rescue Mission (CRM) is a "relief shelter to meet the needs of the homeless by both providing services that fill immediate physical needs (showers, food, clothing, a night's rest, etc.) and offering longer-term, assistance programs that give members the "confidence and knowledge to become productive members of [the] community".

alex's adventures: The Upcoming Oscars
http://lovealexlew.blogspot.com/2011/02/upcoming-oscars.html
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. I've never watched the Academy Awards. A has never missed them. In hopes that my showing interest in his interests will inspire him to show interest in my interests (which are much more sophisticated than the Academy Awards I might add), I will throw in my hat and join the other millions of movie nerds and entertainment buffs for this Sunday's 83rd Annual Oscars.

alex's adventures: Our Engagement Story
http://lovealexlew.blogspot.com/2011/04/our-engagement-story.html
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. I'm not having a very busy week so I thought I'd go ahead and post the engagement story. Friday, March 25th, A told me that he wanted to take me on a surprise date. Honestly, I had no clue that this was about to be the biggest surprise of my life! I always try to get him to make one up for me, but he never will. Until March 25th. So he plays "my song" and that's when it hit me -...An ul...

You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. This Growing Up Business. Forget New Year's Resolutions. I have bigger fish to fry this year. I'm deeming the year of 2011 as the year of growing up. I've always wanted to grow up. As a teen, I fought with my parents constantly and threatened to "move out! Because I was surely "old enough to take care of myself! I quickly learned this wasn't the truth at all. Really cool, Alex. You'...

alex's adventures: The Past Month (as seen through the lens of my trusty iPhone)
http://lovealexlew.blogspot.com/2011/04/past-month-as-seen-through-lens-of-my.html
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. The Past Month (as seen through the lens of my trusty iPhone). I can confidently say that the past month has been the best of my life. I really wish that the right words would just flow out of me, describing all of the emotions I am feeling right now but I know they won't and really, they can't. No words can do my happiness justice so I'll just leave it at this - I am so blessed. When i...

alex's adventures: A GRAND China Wedding
http://lovealexlew.blogspot.com/2011/04/grand-china-wedding.html
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. A GRAND China Wedding. Can I just tell you how much time I spend looking at weddings online? Countless, upon countless, hours. One would assume that it is the newness of the engagement that's caused this absurd time wasting. Nope I did this before. But now I can justify it. Folks, this isn't just a void pastime. I am a self-proclaimed wedding critic! I can only hope that my wedding will...

http://lovealexlew.blogspot.com/p/about.html
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. My name is Alex and these are my adventures. I am a twenty-something who loves reading, Chick-fil-A, traveling, peonies, anthropologie, trashy tv, and running. I believe that each of us are terribly broken, but the grace of God can give us hope, stability, and abundant joy. I also believe in the unsung merit of lazy days, handwritten cards, and vacuuming. Below are a few of my favorites.

alex's adventures: Current Obsessions
http://lovealexlew.blogspot.com/2011/04/current-obsessions.html
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me." -C.S. Lewis. At the City Rescue Mission. My life, lately, more-or-less consists of obsessing over the following things:. Maxi skirts, not for the shorties. I like this one because it looks comfortable - top priority for me. Kate Middleton's ring, but who isn't? I may or may not be planning my evening around Lifetime's Royal Wedding programming. Ann Lander's letter featured on Today's Letters. AKA-our chosen wedding venue!
