In this house, we have no dress code. For if my loin-fruit are even clothed in part, I am grateful. I lie. I love it when they’re “nakey nakey”. But that’s not generally well accepted by the store manager at Meijer. So when they do get dressed {up}, it most often includes an eclectic […]
Guest Post: Inner Fulfillment
{click here to read it} It’s the first post I ever wrote on this blog, in February of 2011. It’s about his grace and goodness, in the midst of my mess. And it’s even truer today than it was then.
A New Thing: At The Well
I’m guest posting over in At The Well today… {Get your bible memorization on!}
The Battle Plan
Every neurotic, type-A, control-freakish, list-loving smart woman has a battle plan for when she turns 30, right? {Just humor me here} I thought so. For as long as I can recall, I have loved the idea of being “in my thirties”. It’s a stage of life when one has enough years under their belt to […]
Seriously…You Have Got to Try This!
It’s called Tagxedo…and it’ll rock your face off. It is rather addictive, however, so consider yourself warned. Simply copy the text of your choice…a letter…a favorite scripture verse…a sappy post…the declaration of independence {you know, whatever floats your goat}…and paste it into their fancy little image creator, customize the shape, colors and fonts…and voila! Fabulous […]

He Loves Me
I love that my husband loves me so well! I woke up yesterday morning to the sound of the blender…then the mixer…the kettle singing “ding!”, and lastly, the pitter patter of little footsteps sent to whisper…”mommy, it’s time to get up…breakfast is ready!!”. Pancakes…strawberries…bananas…freshly whipped cream…tea {oh, tea, how I adore thee!}…and these beautiful little […]
Just a Bread and Butter Post
Really. It’s about bread. And butter. And only slightly about pretzels. As hinted at a while back, I dug my bread machine out and have been baking up a storm throwing ingredients in it ever since. And, as promised a while back, here are our 3 favorite recipes {so far}: * with all 3 recipes, […]
Getting Fresh {Desktop Wallpaper}
I don’t know about you, but I can feel Spring in my bones! It’s calling my name in it’s signature, lilting fashion. Wooing me. I think Spring sounds like rain. The non-freezing kind. And a little like a duet between Michael Buble and Colbie Caillat would sound. With the sound of defrosted birds chirping randomly […]
The Lessons Wii Learn
She stands. 10 little toes perched sweetly atop my new cutting board. Sure, it was intended for chopping veggies on, but it is fast becoming the cutest balance board on the block. She’s ready and rearing to go. It’s time for our weekly Wii date, and it’s quite possible I’ve grown to enjoy this date […]
