November 18, 2016.Reading time less than 1 minute.

Today I’m thankful for so many things, mostly things I can’t talk about yet (but will post when I can!). But tonight David and I were treated to a wonderful seafood dinner at a restaurant we’d never been to with a family friend. We had a great time laughing and eating! We were so grateful […]

Today I’m thankful for an unexpected cup of coffee from a dear friend. Thoughtful actions just make the day so much brighter! I’m also thankful I’ve gotten past day 3 of this challenge this time around. Ha! Save

Thankful Challenge Day 1 | 2016

November 1, 2016.Reading time 2 minutes.

Three years ago, I tried a very unsuccessful attempt at the Thankful Challenge here on the blog. The intention was to post something I was thankful for daily, and sadly I only got three days in when the crickets started singing. This year, I’m attempting once again with the same good intentions in mind. I’d […]

Welcome Fall Party

October 3, 2014.Reading time 6 minutes.

If having a Welcome Fall party wasn’t a thing, this year I certainly made it one! I’ve been wanting to throw a little shindig like this for ages and I’m so thankful for my in-laws for lending me their space to do it! This is another one of those posts where the pictures did not […]

Fuzzy Hats & Ice Skating

December 16, 2013.Reading time 4 minutes.

Things are always an adventure when Kelly’s around. That’s one reason why I just love her! At the end of the summer she moved out of the area, states away, so when she was here for a quick Thanksgiving visit, Jackie and I couldn’t miss the opportunity to hang out with her. Kelly thought it […]

Instagram It

June 29, 2013.Reading time 1 minute.

Looking back at my posts this year, I realized I haven’t shared too many of my Instagram shots, so I thought it’d be fun to post a few of those today! Personally, I love photography in any form I can get it, even if Instagram has me feeling like a faux photographer. P.S. Don’t forget […]

Hanson’s New Album – Anthem

June 27, 2013.Reading time 3 minutes.

Okay, I admit it – I’m a huge nerd when it comes to Hanson. I remember being eleven years old and vowing never to like another band as much as I liked them then and little did I know how well I’d stick to that in the years to come. The guys have such positive energy […]

Moments You Can’t Buy

September 2, 2012.Reading time 1 minute.

On a normal Sunday, I am not a morning person. You’ll find me still snuggled in bed until eleven o’clock or so. I’ve always been more of a night owl which means getting up early does not come natural to me. But after a few hours in the ER yesterday (bladder infection – ouch) and […]

My sister has an amazing voice and I captured that while visiting the family last week while having fun doing karaoke. We would be so grateful if you could help us go viral by sharing this with family and friends through facebook, twitter, or email! Make sure you click on the Youtube link to make […]

Connecting The Old Fashioned Way

February 18, 2012.Reading time 2 minutes.

The first time I had to move and leave my best friends, I was nine. I made sure to get everyone’s addresses and promised to write. If we couldn’t see each other anymore, the next best thing was to be pen pals. I kept up this trend well into my early twenties, and obsessing over […]
