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...]
Hello, Summer!
Once again, I didn't mean to be gone so long! The end of the school year got totally away from me, which led to me being brain-dead for a couple of weeks. Then my site needed some server updates so here we are -- halfway through June and a month into my summer "break." So far, it feels a little like a break, but I'm still working every day. The administrative part of running the school and Board of Directors is never ending, actually. … [Read more...]
Five on Friday: Turning 50
Hi there, friends! I had no intention of being gone so long! But I was hijacked by a surprise 50th birthday celebration AND getaway for several days and have been digging out from under ever since. :) I've had my nose to the grindstone for the last several months and have been reluctant to get away -- I didn't want to spend the money OR take the time away from what's been all-consuming. But apparently my husband and BFF had other ideas. … [Read more...]
2016: Highlights and Lowlights
Where to begin? Now that I'm finally catching my breath a bit, it seemed like a good time to reflect on 2016 before turning the page to the new year... and I'm READY to turn the page! 2016 was the year of change around here... One of the biggest was opening our preschool after quite the journey. This time last year I was in the midst of sharing our Legacy Story here on the blog. But within a month or so, when Legacy was registering … [Read more...]
What I’m Reading, Loving, and Working On…(and a Winner!)
Thank you to those that entered my Country Living Fair giveaway! I've put the lucky winner at the bottom of this post... October is already flying by, isn't it? I feel like I'm already running from one thing to another, don't you? I have to say, though, October is one of my favorite months of the year with so many festive events, the gorgeous shift to fall weather and that teensy window of time to just enjoy before the madness of the … [Read more...]
Five on Friday: Beach Trip Edition
Hi friends! I hope you've had an amazing week! Our schools have been on Fall Break all week, so I took advantage and scooted to the beach with my BFF for some R&R. I was pretty run down from work and that pesky cold-turned-cough, so it was a great time to catch up on my sleep and totally veg out in a beach chair for a few days! We totally lucked out on the weather -- it was sunny and breezy every day! Total win... This week's Five on … [Read more...]
This ‘n That Wednesday
Howdy! I hope you all had great Fourth of July weekend! I did a little bit of Legacy work and a whole lotta relaxing poolside with the hubs. I even managed to sleep in a bit! #holidayweekendforthewin Today I thought I'd share a little of this 'n that from the last several days. First of all, my BFF, my Girl, and I took in Emily Giffin's launch party for her new book First Comes Love. I'm a huge fan of her stories and she is so funny and … [Read more...]
The Meaning of Legacy
Hi gang ~ I hope your weekend was wonderful! I had a great time at Lake Rabun with my in laws and a bunch of other "girls"... we had a such fun catching up and celebrating my SIL's career as an educator. Here was my view each morning when I woke up... It was a good time for me to unplug for a couple of days, too. I've spent some time over the last week or so thinking a lot about Legacy, so I thought I'd share a little of that brain … [Read more...]
This ‘n That Monday
Hi friends... Well, I checked out again for a bit, but I'm back! I spent 10 days in Texas with my family at the beginning of October, taking in some Texas Aggie football and then trekking to Amarillo to celebrate my dad's 80th birthday. It was such sweet family time... And so then, when I got back, I had to hit the ground running for Legacy (more on that this week). And so while I intended to post last week, life got in … [Read more...]
