I read the other day in table talk (which I love) something about Vikings....it resonated with me during this season of so many struggles. I wanted to share it from my point of view.

Paraphrasing at best...
That when the Vikings made their long boats, they did not choose the trees inland, but rather chose the trees along the coast that had been weathered and beaten by storms. The ones along the coast were stronger, sturdier and all around were better lumber for their boats.

The Lord in a sense allows these trials so that we can be “weathered.” If I remained weak like the trees inland, the storms at sea would sink me. In that I’m glad I’m a tree weathered by storms so that I can withstand the sea!

Thank you to all that have reached out. Adam had another seizure this evening. Prayers are appreciated ❤️

I love you all!
In Christ,

Dear friends and students,

As many of you know, I’ve been dealing with some family matters lately. The Lord has made it abundantly clear that my place is with my family during this time. While I love each of you and my time at Briarwood, it’s time for me to say goodbye.

In moments like these, I often think about the story of Ruth. She took a leap of faith, following Naomi and trusting God to guide her to a new home and future.

Romans 8:28 reminds us that all things work together for good for those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose. I believe that what God has planned for each of us is truly amazing!

I’ve cherished every moment spent with you and will miss our daily chats, the smiles, the laughter, and the special bond we’ve built.

Please remember that I am cheering you on and I am always here for me, if you should need me. I have a special prayer for you all.. it’s Numbers 6:24-26 I pray that The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.”

With all my love and with BIG hugs and a heart so full it could burst,
Anna Hix

Neither one is bad. Realization of what is going to get you towards the end goal is important. Know how to accomplish it and be wise in how to achieve the end result😉….

Another great recipe. Shrimp tacos… doesn’t get any better…
For the avocado crème I used plain Greek yogurt to cut fat and I also did not use cheese. It was still amazing! I’ll post macros and link shortly in comments.

I learned along time ago, that having healthy relationships with food are important. There were times, especially in my early adulthood that I would eat one meal a day or go all day with only a cookie. I was incredibly unaware of what I was doing to my body. A story for another time… however today, I eat in a way that is sustainable for me. Fad diets come and go. Once we understand what healthy eating looks like, it’s easier to control cravings, feed our body foods that are nutritionally dense, and not feel deprived in the process. Below is a recipe that I have used time and time again. You can eat as is. Freeze it to eat as an ice cream. I thought I would share.
3/4 cup of Fage plain yogurt (I used 2%)
2 tablespoons of PB fit
1 teaspoon or more of vanilla for taste
Sprinkle of sea salt
Tablespoon of honey (add more if you would like it sweeter. You can also use maple syrup, agave, sweetener)
Chocolate chips (I like Ghirardelli bittersweet. Again use what you like. I believe that Lily’s is also a brand of sugar free chocolate…. But I just can’t. It takes the fun out of life🤣🤣🤣 and plus I like to walk on the wild side. Seriously, who doesn’t like Ghirardelli. I digress!)
Anyway give it a go. If you want the macros…. Enter it into MyFitnessPal or another tracking app and it should provide the macros and calories. It will vary accordingly.
Enjoy!

Such a fantastic recipe! I made this tonight for my family and parents. It was so tasty! Give it a go… I promise it will not disappoint!

I’m writing this recipe from my hometown of Anchorage, Alaska. I come up every summer to visit family and friends, fish the Kenai River and play in the midnight sun.  While fishing was slow this year, we still got a good amount of salmon to last us until next season.  Our fish pr
