Happy New Year, friends and readers! I hope you all enjoyed the holidays and are entering this new year -- and decade -- with a clear vision and focus on your goals! I spent some time mulling over my Word of the Year, considering last year's WOTY and how it applied, and thinking through some goals I'd like to articulate. Truth be told, progress on all of that was a little stilted due to some unexpected family things, so I'm still … [Read more...]
Five on Friday
Happy Friday, everyone! We had such a great week at Legacy summer camp -- lots of great crafts and activities built around our favorite books. We'll do this theme again, as everyone (kids and teachers!) seemed to LOVE it! We're keeping it light for Five on Friday this week -- just some fun things that have come on my radar in the past week! I'm in need of a new travel cosmetics case, now that I'm at the age of numerous skin care/hair … [Read more...]

For LENT 2017…
Greetings, friends, on this Ash Wednesday! While it seems late to be starting Lent by looking at the calendar, it still crept up on me just a bit this year. Today I'm enjoying a special family event in Jacksonville, but I wanted to pop in anyway to share my thoughts on Lent for this year. The last several years I have spent Lent focusing on some sort of discipline... listing gifts, collecting items to donate, etc... rather than "giving up" … [Read more...]
My Word of the Year 2017
Hi there, friends! And Happy President's Day! Last week totally got away from me, but the school is on Winter Break this week so I've got just a bit of breathing room to catch up, work on my house, and share a few things with all of you! This is a tad overdue but I wanted to share my Word of the Year for 2017. It took a while this time for it to come to me... in fact, I really wrestled with it. But I finally settled on it and I'm quite sure … [Read more...]
