One of the sweetest moments at Abby’s shower was when my lifelong friend, Joli, shared some words she had written about marriage. Joli is one of the most Godly, heartfelt person you will ever meet. She knew all of my babies when they were in utero and came to visit all three at the hospital… Continue reading Wisdom for Newlyweds
This past weekend, my sisters and fabulous friends threw Abby the most wonderful bridal shower, a celebration filled with joy and laughter. Every detail was so perfectly curated, reflecting Abby’s personality and style. The shower invitation was absolutely precious, featuring beautiful floral designs that hinted at the theme of the day. And that theme continued… Continue reading Bubbles and Blooms
It has been a hot minute since I have had an urge to blog. It has been a fun and busy year and I am not even sure where I want to start. This will be the first of a few updates over the next several days. I’m so grateful for this crazy life I… Continue reading Lately…

Goodness it turned cold this weekend! I joke that quilting is my winter hobby and needlepoint is my spring sport. Quilting has to be done indoors. I can take my needlepoint projects outside and enjoy the weather while I work on them. Since it turned cold again this weekend I took the opportunity to finish… Continue reading Bring on Summer

Today my Dad turns 80 years old! He is a walking miracle. If you have been friends with me for very long, you know that 11 years ago he nearly died. He spent 45 days in ICU, days and days on a ventilator, and family was brought in to tell him goodbye. But God wasn’t… Continue reading Paki: The Man, The Myth, The Legend
Week 3 update on my social media break. They told us at church that although we may have FOMO- fear of missing out, we will also have JOMO- the joy of missing out. And that’s exactly what is happening for me. That party I wasn’t invited to? I don’t even know about it because I… Continue reading JOMO
