Missing – Gratefulness in our home!

January 19, 2016

Missing – Gratefulness in our home!

The past few days I’ve been reading Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World by Kristen Welch as I am part of the launch team for this book and honestly, all through the book I keep saying, “Yes, this!”  Reading excerpts aloud to my husband, highlighting half the book, wanting to stay up all night to finish […]

Seasons of Motherhood

September 21, 2015

Seasons of Motherhood

Lately I’ve really noticed that we’ve moved into a different stage of life and I think we’ve been here for a while but don’t want to admit it because that means we are all getting older.  We are no longer the couple in their late 20’s/early 30’s with small children at home, filled with busy […]

Bloom where you are planted

Bloom where you are planted

For many of you who we see often, you know the debate of moving South or not has been ongoing in our home for about a year, well ok, maybe a little longer than that.  The past two winters have been really rough on me personally.  The bone chilling cold combined with the wind plus the cloudy days, make […]

A New Season of Motherhood

Grab a cup of coffee or if you are like me and don’t drink coffee, maybe an ice water with lemon, come sit down and chat!  I have been gone all summer and I’m looking forward to blogging again, it’s been a while that’s for sure.  I have a lot on my heart and mind […]

Downton Abbey Premier Dinner Party Season 4

Downton Abbey Premier Dinner Party Season 4

This past summer I had some friends over who had never seen Downton Abbey before so like a good friend, I introduced them to my addiction, hoping they would become addicted as well.   Of course they were hooked after a few episodes and from there a Season 4 premier party idea was born.   […]

Update on my mom & Christmas

December 29, 2012

Update on my mom & Christmas

Whew, it’s been quite the whirlwind of activity around our home the past week or so.  I’m sure you are all feeling the after Christmas crash as well.  I know a few of you lucky ducks have still had some pajama days this week and I’m a little jealous.  For those of you who don’t […]

Generous Tuesday: Giving gifts that really matter

November 28, 2012
