For generations women have felt like they can’t quite measure up. Like in some way they are always failing at something. Call it insecurity, high expectations, or our desire to do it all. Whatever you want to name it, we always feel like in some way we are lacking, and not quite enough. We see […]
Adding Length to Jeans for Girls
Fall is slowly creeping in here. Not quite at the pace that I’d like it, but slowly. My crazy daughter loves wearing skinny jeans. Even in July, most of the time she requests a dress, or jeans. She has shot up over the summer (her new height average is crushing my dreams of wearing the […]
Lost and Found: Being Story Tellers of God’s Grace
I had the privilege of having friends in for the long weekend. Friends my husband and I have known for over 12 years. Friends who lived overseas with us and saw us at our worst. We talked and laughed about some of those times, and what we did to survive (Coca Cola was a common […]
Quiet, Cooking and Crafting
It’s been a little quiet around here. Partly because I’m still processing and working through what God has been showing me about doing the next hard thing, and because fall and it’s crazy schedule popped up out of nowhere and I’ve been scrambling to catch up. I’ve been doing a whole bunch of cooking and […]
Do the Hard Thing
Outside my window the cool breeze of fall is blowing through the trees. The winds of change are blowing in. And I’m ever so grateful. I wrote awhile back how it’s been a season of winter that we’ve been trudging through for many months now. I am so very pleased to see the seasons changing. […]
DIY Mickey/Minnie Pocket Tees
We are in full countdown mode…less than a month until we leave for Disney. As you can imagine, we are all pretty excited. It really is the most magical place on earth. We went two years ago for the first time as a family and loved the time we got to spend together and the memories […]
Jen Hatmaker Changed How I Make Dinner
I’ve changed my approach in how I make dinner. I was pretty convicted on how much excess we have in our fridge and pantry at all times after reading 7 by Jen Hatmaker. Read it, it’ll mess you up in the best way. Since then, I’ve been pretty aware of our consumption, and waste. Due to […]
My St. Louis
I was 17 and my best friend and I had gone to a Blues game downtown by ourselves. We had used the metro link (STL’s transit system) to get downtown to avoid parking. We didn’t get out of the game until after 11pm. Being high school girls who were still figuring out good directional sense, […]
Peacemakers
My brain has been clouded with all the thoughts and feelings this week. I’ve been angry, frustrated, disheartened, mournful, grieved, heartbroken, confused, to name a few. I think the worlds current state of affairs is justifying of such reactions. Maybe your own state of affairs is warranting of that reaction too. I am quick to shake my […]
Nancy’s Cobbler
My mother in law would have been the first to tell you she wasn’t a great cook. When I first came on the scene she welcomed me into her kitchen. As I grew more confident in the kitchen, she often even let me have the run of it. I loved having space to cook, and I […]
