The ocean has always spoken to me. Since I was a little girl my husband has teased me about how much I LOVE the beach. I could spend the entire day and not leave the beach. Especially if I have a book. Just the other morning I was sharing with my friend at her newborn […]

Grace in the Waiting

God calls certain people into our lives for so many reasons. The moments you need them most, they will show up uninvited, sometimes unannounced and sometimes forcefully, thankfully. You see, two weeks ago, we found a knot in Kuy’s neck. It was after a basketball game one Friday night and we were at a gas […]
DIY Gift Wrap Ideas

A couple of years ago, I blogged about my mom’s idea for wrapping paper. I’ve been meaning to do it again for the past two years so when Krista mentioned the gift wrap blog hop, I jumped right in! This is one of my favorite traditions because it holds so much meaning. My mom always […]
A Christmas Home Tour

This time of year brings emotions of all realms. JOY, sadness, giddiness like a child, heartbreak, pure bliss.

To the players my husband coaches…
“Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ….Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many….But in fact God has placed the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to […]
Pink, White and Oh, So Soft {Nursery Reveal}
She’s one year old. And her nursery is finally “finished.” Except not really because two days ago, she knocked a frame off the wall while I was changing her diaper and it broke. So there’s that. (beautiful wallpaper from here) But I love where it has come and watching our house become a home where […]
