Let’s begin today with a couple of announcements. We received our preview copy of Trusting God When Life Gives You Crap yesterday! After we review it and make any final changes it will go to print! Let me say that again–“Go to print!” I can hardly believe it! You can Pre-order Now! Just thought I’d… Read More
My beautiful friend Ginny has a contagious laugh and a bright soul–you know one of those personalities that exudes joy. She taught my Hannah in 2nd grade at Crooked River Elementary. Later, I too taught at CRES. A few years passed and again, we found ourselves with another similarity—we were fighting cancer at the same… Read More
Dory and I have been friends for a little over 14 years. She is a part of my WooHoo girls who have been going to the beach together and other shenanigans for all of those same number of years. Besides loving sunshine, beach time and flip flops, we share a commonality of our love of… Read More
My scripture for today comes from Proverbs 19:21. It says, “Many are the plans in a person’s heart but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.” What a timely message to remind us that God’s purpose will always prevail. The definition for prevail is “to prove more powerful than opposing forces; be victorious.” Yes! Yesterday… Read More
A couple of weeks ago–something amazing happened in my life. I turned the big 5 – 0! And yes, we celebrated. While I’ve always known that life is precious, these days I really take that to heart. LIFE IS PRECIOUS! Every single day is here for us to celebrate and live with joy and purpose.… Read More
We love to camp! We love being outdoors, taking walks, playing games, sitting by the fire, and roasting marshmallows. This past weekend our whole family went camping to Gordonia Altamaha State Park. It’s an interesting little state park almost smack dab in the middle of downtown Reidsville, Georgia. We had 15 people, 3 tents, 1… Read More
res·to·ra·tion: noun The action of returning something to a former owner, place, or condition. We spent our Saturday restoring a well used bed frame we found on the marketplace for $95 and a dresser we acquired last year and are finally getting around to repairing. Both of these pieces needed a little love and lots… Read More
It’s been officially fall for about a week. Apparently our south Georgia weather did not get the memo because we are still enjoying surviving 95 degree days. I always love the change of seasons, even if we have to look really hard for evidence of the change in the deep south. Our mornings and our… Read More
You never know what your children will grow up to be. Oh sure–sometimes they give you little inklings of clues. We knew that Austin would choose a career that involved being “hands-on”, and an adrenaline junkie. We figured that it would require him to be active instead of sitting behind a desk. While schooling with… Read More
Today I want to share with you a mini-project that we tackled in the last month. By now you know that I love to do things with my hands. I dabble with quilting, painting, sewing, photography, bread making and cake decorating. I just need to be using my creativity. Since we moved into our home… Read More
