So recently I noticed an adult writing contest at our local library. I used to love to write, but somewhere along the way I decided no one was interested in reading what I had to say, so I stopped. This blog has been such a nice outlet for me, but when I saw this writingContinue reading “The Unravelling”

Soaking in the Sunshine
So a month or two ago I uploaded all of these pictures to a blog and then never filled in any of the writing. When I started seeing this local trend of visiting a sunflower farm, I was intrigued, but it took a couple weeks to get up the courage to drag the whole familyContinue reading “Soaking in the Sunshine”
Hello 34
The older I get, the less I seem to care about my birthday. When asked what I wanted to do for the day, I said hang out in my room all day. What do I want? Ehh… I don’t really need anything. I had just ordered my wine cooler and a new camera. Let’s callContinue reading “Hello 34”
Slowing Down
We have been socially distancing for 30 days today. As the first week came and went I spent days in a panic, worried I was forgetting something. Maybe it was an activity, appointment, school assignment, etc. It has made me realize that there is just so much on my plate that I am dependent onContinue reading “Slowing Down”
Realizing a Dream I NEVER Asked for…
As I sit here in my home during my self imposed exile from my kingdom…I mean while I practice social distancing, I am just in shock. I think about how crazy this whole thing is and I am at a loss for words. I have to keep on trucking though, because if I don’t weContinue reading “Realizing a Dream I NEVER Asked for…”
Building a Strong Foundation
I mean quite literally…we watched them build us a foundation. It was pretty cool to watch it go from dirt to huge concrete slab. As harrowing as some of the design choices seem, I feel so blessed that our kids get to experience this. When I ended the last post I talked about the foundationContinue reading “Building a Strong Foundation”

Book Review: Ban This Book
So a friend added me to an online book club this year. Each month has a new theme for the book to be chosen. The club came up in discussion with my son recently. I told Johnny (age 11) that February’s book club book for me was a banned book. He didn’t know what thatContinue reading “Book Review: Ban This Book”
Throwback Thursday: Remember to Live
Ok so background…this blog was posted on another platform October 28th 2014. At the time we had been living in Texas for about 3 months. To be honest, I have been feeling as though I am grasping for time, always trying to find yet another moment to steal because there is just not enough hours in aContinue reading “Throwback Thursday: Remember to Live”
It’s Finally Happening!!!
I have wanted to sit down and write this for a few days now, but I just have not had the time. Girl Scout Cookie season has me super busy. After 18 months of working towards it, we signed the final paperwork for our construction loan. Best of all, we didn’t have to cut anythingContinue reading “It’s Finally Happening!!!”
