2018 in Review: An Exercise in Gratitude
So, I blinked and we’re nine days into 2019! Church and gym parking lots are packed thanks to the new resolutions that come with a new year. Store shelves are filled with containers and bins to help us bring order to the chaos of our closets. The sound of new pens being uncapped resounds across desktops everywhere, etching the first checklists in new day planners. And every fiber of my being wants to do the same. Set new goals. Organize those shelves. Write those lists. And I Read more

Ice Cream Themed Birthday Party: DIY Decor Ideas
I scream, you scream, we all scream for an ice cream themed birthday party with do-able decor you can pull off at the last minute! Bless her heart, Juniper's second birthday fell during the week we moved, which meant we hastily split a single cupcake among the three of us, sang "Happy Birthday," and called it a day. But we put a date on the calendar to give our little lady a proper birthday celebration with family three weeks later. And we had such a sweet time, I decided to snap some Read more

I can't tell you how many times I'd make a resolution Read more
The Gift of a Fresh Start by Declaring Email Bankruptcy
So, I just caught myself mindlessly doing my snappy dance in front of the microwave while waiting for my coffee to re-heat. Oh, what's my snappy dance, you ask? The one where I snap my fingers to a peppy beat. It's all the rage with the kids these days. {Wink.} Just kidding. It's not cool at all. But it's my go-to dance move lately. I do it so much that when I tell Juniper to dance, she desperately tries to snap her tiny fingers. But I digress.... Why was I so happy? Why was I standing Read more
My One Word for 2018
If we could sit down and have a cup of coffee... ...we'd probably meet up at that darling local spot. That coffee shop on the brick street that serves those yummy acai bowls and always has a killer soundtrack playing. I'd order my caramel macchiato, half-sweet (because hey...I'm tryin'). And you'd order your go-to drink (you know the one). We could sit at the little table by the window because...Vitamin D. Then, we'd enjoy a little back-and-forth about how it's not the cool weather that Read more
