It has been a while since I have “caught up” and a lot sure has happened in the past six months. While a lot has happened a lot has made us grow and continue to trust the Lord. To start I’ll start back in May: 1. At the end of May we packed our first home up and said goodbye …
Treasures of the Heart
The truth is I think about my blog almost everyday. Lately I have been thinking about it more and more each day. It’s always something that is in the back of my mind. It’s something I want to pursue and something I want to look back on and be proud of. Often though, my thoughts get in the way. Or …
Psalm 118
There are some verses that just stick out to me. I believe these ones are the ones placed directly on my heart by Jesus. Usually these are the verses I end up stumbling across when I’m not sure what to read and when I’m often not in the “reading” mode. God shows up once again and places something on my …

Here is my thought of the day: If you bake your donuts they’re healthy right? We’re just going to pretend that is the case and continue on with our day! We will pretend the calories don’t count. I had been wanting to make a dessert for my husband but we have been trying to keep the sweets out of our …
Our Portland Trip
A couple weeks ago my husband, little girl and I went on vacation. Our first stop was to Portland, Maine and then we drove down to New York to spend some time with our family. I wanted to share a few things from our trip and a few things I took away from it. It gets a little lengthy, but …
Joanne Gaines Biscuits
Joanna Gaines can pretty much do anything and I’m just like everyone else who loves her design. Ever since I have tried her biscuit recipe, I love her even more. Usually if a biscuit comes with my meal I give it to my husband because it doesn’t excite me that much. But with this recipe, I go back for seconds! …
