Happy Fall and TGIF! My word, what a wacky week! I could've sworn it was a full moon with all the strange things that went on... but I made it through and now I'm on FALL BREAK. #blessit Today we're headed to Augusta for my daughter's white coat ceremony and then I'm off to the beach on an extended girls' trip! Woo hoo! I plan to do a lot of resting, reading, laughing, and sunning. If you follow me on Instagram, you'll get some peeks at … [Read more...]

Hello, dear friends and Happy September!?! Once again, I did not intend to be gone for a while, but -- WHEW! We've got our school year at Legacy up and running and life just got away from me for a bit there. :) And all of a sudden, here we are -- September! I'm clinging to summer still -- I feel like I didn't really have a "summer" with all the hoopla of listing/selling/moving/trying to settle/ramping up for a new school year. It was just … [Read more...]
Changes: Sofa Love

Hi there, friends and Happy Friday! Back today with a fun new purchase to share -- and it's been a long time coming. :) If you look back on my family room posts from our old house, I made no secret of how disgruntled I was with our big brown sofa. I mean, I was OVER it. First of all, I purchased it back in 2006 when we had all five kids and two dogs at home. It was big and comfortable and would hide all manner of sins (dog hair, … [Read more...]

Hello, strangers! The last few weeks have truly been a whirlwind, but I feel like things are finally settling down a bit.

And to let you know, I plan to be back to regular posting over the next week or so. :) As you know, our house was under contract and we closed on the sale at the end of June. I think I'm still … [Read more...]
Life Lately…

Hello, friends! It's so hard to believe that as I type this, we're closing out our school year AND the month of May. The last several weeks have had me spinning like a top and I just now have bit of a breather to come say hello to all of you. Last weekend we put the For Sale sign in the front yard. And leading up to that was an unbelievable flurry of painting, purging, and packing. Nineteen years in a home will do that to you... It was … [Read more...]

Hello, dear friends... I just had to pop in and wish you a most blessed Easter weekend! I'm so thankful that God's mercies are new each day because of what Jesus did for all of us! Things have been insane both at school and at home and so I haven't been able to share much here... I keep telling myself it's just a season, and it is. But it's a challenging one right now. We had the most beautiful lavender sunrise last week and it was such … [Read more...]
