settling seasons

it's always a good day when we go to brunch at cafe 303.

it's not always a brilliant idea to go to the harbor after brunch. it's a little too cold for life in this photo.

it is just really cold here. all the time. and i always have to be outside. i wonder if i will make it out alive.

courtney: "i've decided that i don't want to leave boston for a while."
justin: "wait till february."

super encouraging justin.

but seriously. i don't want to leave boston. i feel like life fell into place so quickly, smoothly, and thoroughly here. in the most important ways - not superficial ways. i have phenomenal friends and a church that i love more and more each sunday.

i am tired of picking up life and settling down, only to pick up again.

i just want to settle.

and ill take the change of seasons over monotonously pleasant weather any day.
