Friday, y'all... and I am so thankful. This was another week of meetings and prayer as my precious school is being put through the ringer. I can't go into all the details yet, but let me just say: Satan is alive and well. I have never experienced spiritual warfare before, but I'm enduring it now. So if my posts are a bit scarce for a while it is because I am drained. BUT, I am optimistic and continue praying and seeking joy in my … [Read more...]
It Was an Insta-Christmas!

Whew!! What an amazing week we had with my family in Texas! Our travel out there was rocky (to say the least), but once we got there it was a lovely relaxing time with some of my favorite people. If you followed along on Instagram, I apologize for the duplicate pics, but there's a few new ones in here, too! And there are a few photos I've saved for our New Years cards so I'll share those soon. Yes, I decided to send NY cards this year, … [Read more...]
Five on Friday (Black Friday Edition)

Hello there!! Did you all survive your self-induced food coma yesterday? Oh my word... I didn't think I would. ;-) And the Aggies couldn't quite pull it out against LSU but there are more big games to come this weekend (War Eagle!). We've been in South Georgia with my in-laws and now are headed to nurse my sister-in-law post foot-surgery for a couple of days. Needless to say, I won't be out with the Black Friday crowds, but I did have … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed it: October
November 3, 2014 by · 2 Comments
Oh my goodness. November, y'all. Over the weekend, I had to turn my heat on and we enjoyed our first fire of the season... well, the boys and I did anyway. The hubs was off to enjoy his first weekend of hunting season. So I got my craft on in a huge way and got my booth all squared away for our Holiday Open House later this week! I'll share pics on Wednesday, but for today I'm recapping a very busy October. Just in case you missed it. I … [Read more...]

Howdy hoo, y'all... and TGIF! I've had a super busy week and am really looking forward to some downtime and fun this weekend. I've had a few things mulling around my brain this week, so thought I'd just smoosh them all into one random post. Hope you don't mind! 1 A Whole30 update. Okay, here's the deal. Eating clean, whole foods and eliminating all the sugars and preservatives really hasn't been that hard. In fact, the hubs and I … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It {September}

Well, shoot, if you blinked you missed September! Or so it seemed... I had a really busy month, but was a little light on posts around here. I hope you don't mind; I have a couple more crazy weeks and then a bit of a lull for a few weeks, so I'm planning to get some major projects around my house wrapped up. Woo hoo! But here's what I DID share during September, just in case you missed it... My Director's Office makeover Feed a Crowd Taco … [Read more...]
Feed A Crowd: Taco Night
September 10, 2014 by · 3 Comments
Hey, y'all -- hope you're having a great week so far! We're deep into the school schedule and routine... and guess what comes our way next week??? Fall Break. I know. It's beyond ridiculous! But I'll take that time "off" (are moms ever really "off"?) to hit the beach for a few days with my youngest and some of his friends (yikes!)... And that started me thinking about what to FEED all those boys while we're on vacay? I know I can't … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It {August}
September 8, 2014 by · 1 Comment
Well, the weekend flew by, didn't it?! I enjoyed some furniture painting and a little bit of crafting, but mostly got a few things ticked off my to-do list. And added some more to it! I realize it's already 8 days into September, but I thought I'd go ahead and recap August here before I got too much further behind. :) It seemed August was a month of updates, like my back deck... and my guest room. I also shared a couple of … [Read more...]
Weekend Recap {Good Stuff}
September 2, 2014 by · 2 Comments
I had no idea what to expect on our trip to Jacksonville. I think my husband and I both had some anxiety, having not seen our son in many months. But what I took away was far more than I ever dreamed. I wasn't prepared for his clear-eyed grounded presence. Or for his glow of good health and sober living. Or for the words we heard from others about him... words like we heard from his boss: I have a little boy and I hope he turns out half … [Read more...]
This ‘n That Wednesday (and a Personal Note)
August 27, 2014 by · 5 Comments
Hi gang! Hope your week is going well! I just wanted to pop in and share a few things... I was working on an article for Mohawk Homescapes blog and ran across this image... source I mean -- y'all. I don't normally fall for black framed mirrors, but holy smokes!! And I love the way it's hung on all that beautiful molding. And those gray chevron ottomans with nailhead trim don't look terrible either. :) Do you ever find an image that … [Read more...]
