Influence Conference (part 1)



I was excited. Nervous. Ready. So not ready.

I arrived at the parking garage a little after 1:00 on Friday afternoon. I finally found a free spot in the parking garage and then I got my luggage out and headed on my walk to the hotel. If you don't know me I am terrible with directions. TERRIBLE I tell ya. Which means I got lost on the way to the hotel twice. On the way to the hotel I saw a beautiful sight, Melody Joy & Phoebe, I was all determined to go right up to her and talk. And then I froze. Yep. Like I literally couldn't talk and stopped walking. It hit me. This is real life. These are women I know, but don't know. I felt so silly. I got to the hotel, when I finally found it, and checked in. I got my room cards and saw Amy {which by the way her blog is sweet home sb not sweethomes b ;)} and froze again. I knew I just needed to get to the room. I was sweating from walking around lost in Indy & being so overwhelmed. I chugged water and sat. 



I then text...texted...umm, you get the idea Kara Kae to see if she needed any help. And then I layed on the bed and cried. I wanted to go home. 

Then the beautiful ding from my iphone that I recieved a text message. It was from Kara Kae that she could use my help.
HALLELUJAH!!!
I needed to keep my mind busy.

And then she hugged me. That's it. She hugged me and all the tension and fear I was feeling was fell off so quickly.

(Part 1 of how many I feel led to write...more to come)
And don't worry, it's gets really GOOD, because He is GOOD.

Influence Link Up

Hello if you don't know me I'm Katie I {obviously} blog here and you can find my instagram & twitter ---> Two things in my bag: 1. My cute little notebooks I found at Target and a variety of pens. I love pens. No seriously, you should see my pen + sharpie box.  2. My phone. I am a HUGE picture taker. I love taking pictures and using all the fun picture apps and posting pictures. If you love taking pictures come find me, we can have some instagram fun!!!  Two things I'm looking forward to: 1. Hugs & coffee with friends. Friends I've never technically met. Friends that I will never forget, that will be hard to leave, that just get me. 2. Learning. Learning more about who I am. About the amazing way God created me as a woman. Learning from all these wise women that live with realness and grace. Being filled with His word. See you in 2-ish weeks!!!

Today is the Influential Women Blog Link up. If you are a part of the Influence Network -- get on it!!! Honestly at first I didn't think I would link up, me, influential?! I don't think so. But I am. God uses me daily and will continue to use me.  - - - - - - - - -  Three Things About Myself: 1. I love Taco Night. If you already know me personally you would know this about me. But seriously I love it! And let me tell you I can put some tacos back. Our best friends and us have actually started Taco Tuesday so on Tuesdays we make tacos. Now we're just at a point of trying to make it a healthier Taco Tuesday. 2. I love music so much. I love to dance. I love to sing. I love to be surrounded by music. If you stop by my house there's a 95% chance you will hear music being played. I love Pandora because I can just put on whatever station for the mood I'm in.  Current favorite Pandora stations: Kari Jobe (I don't think that'll ever change), Jerem...
