Hello Friends! I can’t express enough how much I love this time of the year. So many possibilities. It’s a new year! I have a feeling this year will bring about a lot of changes for me. For one, I’m moving in a week! I should probably be packing right now, but I told my…

Look for the Helpers + Baby Snuggles
Dear Friends, How ironic is it that I was complaining about not being a mom in my post yesterday, when I found a very good reason to be thankful I don’t have to worry about my children just yet. I, like many of you, am still trying to process the tragedy of yesterday. If you…

{MIMM} Giveaway Winner + Guest Post Request
Hello Friends! Friends, I feel infinitely better today than I did on Friday. I so appreciate words of encouragement on the post, Facebook and Twitter. I KNOW your prayers helped me right myself! As did church today, but I’m saving that for a Faithful Friday post this week. Life can be rough, but God is…
One of THOSE Days
Hello Friends! Today has been…well interesting. I had the “day off.” So of course I had a to-do list!! It involved going to the city where I go to school (is it weird that I still don’t want to disclose that personal of information on my blog??), which is an hour away. The reason for…

Being Thankful…Even in Tough Situations
Hello Friends! Today I am thankful for the police force keeping our streets safe. Unfortunately, I was the one being unsafe on the interstate…speeding to church. The irony is not lost on me, friends. It’s so silly…I was blow drying my hair, which I never do. And my hair takes FOR-E-VER to blow dry…but…
{Thankful Thursday Link-up #3} #30daysofthanks
Hello Friends! I’ve surprisingly kept up with this challenge. Surprising because I keep almost forgetting about it…which kind of defeats the purpose of meditating all day on the thing I’m thankful for…but I think focusing on the good at all is a step in the right direction! Getting my natural cynicism to turn around to…
{Recipe Round-Up} What to Take to Thanksgiving
Hello Friends! Are you a host or an invader? This is the question I overheard someone asking at school the other day while talking about Thanksgiving break. I’m assuming it was a cheeky way of saying “Are you having people over for Thanksgiving or going over to someone else’s house?” If you are a host,…
Apron Giveaway from Creator’s Gift
Hello Friends! I am so excited about this giveaway because it has been in the making for months! Back in July I went over to my friend Emily‘s house to take some pictures of her lovely aprons for her Etsy page. (Please keep in mind that she makes mostly custom aprons, so there aren’t a…
