Kindred Spirits: Baylee

Everyone meet Baylee, or as I like to call her, my southern belle. I call her that because she's an Alabama native, with the cutest southern accent. She couldn't be more of a belle. Just the cutest, tiniest, sweetest little thing.

I met Baylee the same way I've met most of my best friends; at church. Well, actually at Crema one night right before church. But we connected right off the bat. We had only just met but we couldn't stop hugging each other. That is one of my favorite things about Baylee. She gives the best and most hugs out of all my friends. 

After we talked at church, we made plans to get dinner together later that week. The things we talked about and shared with each other seemed to align perfectly with one another. Everything I loved, she loved. Anything she had been through, I had been through. She is truly a kindred spirit.

I love having this friend who is in pursuit of the same things as me, and even better than that, is such an incredible joy to be around. She brings light to any place she goes. There is sincerity in her eyes when she listens or talks to you. She has such a huge heart for others. 

Though we don't get to see each other all the time due to conflicting schedules, we quickly established the type of relationship where we can always pick up right where we left off, as if nothing has changed. (But I would not complain about getting to be with her all the time, because she's just a stinkin' bundle of joy. So much love and so much sass, which are two of my favorite things.)

We took these photos in Nashville near one of our new favorite places, Steadfast Coffee. Enjoy.

The Minister's Treehouse

This year for Father's Day, I spent the afternoon at the world's largest treehouse. I knew of this place long before I ever moved to Nashville, and I was so excited to finally visit. It's located about an hour an a half outside of town in Crossville, Tennesssee. And the drive was so worth it. 

The back story behind the place is that the man who built it says that God told him "if you build me a treehouse I won't let you run out of material." And I guess His promise came true, since the man finished the treehouse. It was amazing. 

The treehouse was closed off to the public a while ago, and I'm not sure the reason other than that it's a fire hazard. But no one is there guarding the place, it just has a weak wooden fence that we all climbed over. I don't feel guilty. 

Enjoy!
