Good Friday morning, friends. First of all, I am once again heartbroken by a terrorist massacre... how many of these must we see? My thoughts and prayers are with the people of France today. I can't even begin to comment further, but I know you share my grief over this latest attack. I intended to finish up my porch this week among other things, but alas Legacy projects and meetings took precedence. There is soooo much cooking right now to … [Read more...]

Happy Wednesday, y'all! This week has already gotten away from me... I knew I'd be busy this summer, but MAN! We had a minor flood in our basement storage room over the weekend so I've been sorting through that mess on top of what I already had on tap for the week. #Boo. Anyway, I'm popping in today to share what I'm reading, working on, and loving right now... A couple of weeks ago I mentioned that I'd strayed from my bookish ways and had … [Read more...]
Five on Friday: Palm Print Fun
June 17, 2016 by · Leave a Comment
TGIF!! What a tragic week in the news, y'all. My heart just aches for the Orlando community -- first the Pulse shootings and then the Graves family tragedy at Disney. What has stood out to me is the reactions... sadly lacking in grace and compassion. I just keep praying for our country and the state of our hearts, y'all. Will you join me? In other news, it's been a week of meetings, phone calls, and other Legacy business -- so fun to see … [Read more...]

Howdy, friends! The hubs and I have escaped to one of our favorite spots for the weekend -- Lake Rabun... we're celebrating 10 years of marriage/blended family today!

Hey there! I hope your week is off to a great start! I'm still trying to figure out where the weekend went... I spent some time relaxing, watching TV and reading, whipped up a couple of chalkboard projects for the booth, and enjoyed a FUN girls' night out/sleep over with some dear old friends. I intended to spend time shredding paperwork in my home office, but that seemed like no fun... and didn't get done. :) And this morning it's rainy … [Read more...]
Book Review: Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World
February 9, 2016 by · Leave a Comment
I had hoped to get this review up a week ago, but at last here it is... I have lingered in this book. I posted this photo a few weeks back when I was first digging into the reading and it got quite the reaction on Facebook. Apparently there are many of us parents struggling with the sense of entitlement that seems to reign in our current culture. You all know my kids are older -- millenials, most of them. And that word "entitlement" is … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It: January

Well, a few days got away from me and here we are into February! Yikes! If you follow me on Instagram, you saw that I broke away for a girls' weekend at the beach and got the bonus fun of celebrating a dear old friend's 50th birthday at the same time. It was a good time and now it's back to cold/rainy/busy days here at home. :) I've got a list of posts for y'all coming in the next few weeks, but thought I'd flash back to January today, just … [Read more...]

Happy Cyber Monday, friends! Have you got your holiday shopping on yet? I have a few things I'll be ordering today, but for the most part I try to shop all year so the financial hit isn't so hard this time of year. :) The blogosphere is loaded with Gift Guides the past few days, and though I was tempted to put one together myself, I thought I'd just share a little randomness with you today. All 7 of us were together (briefly!) on … [Read more...]
