Wide Open

  The rolling land greets you as if God has thrown his arms wide open to show you the vastness of this beautiful world we live in. As far as you can see, there is land.

Red Faced Runners

    The humidity in Georgia has been a bit stifling lately. So much so that as I began my run the last few days, I’ve started outside and then finished up my routine inside on my treadmill by way of my kitchen to grab a huge glass of ice water. By the time I [...]

unless {Mingle Monday}

One of my favorite Dr. Seuss books has always been The Lorax. I remember reading it as a little girl and being so taken away with the illustrations, but now as a Mother I am more taken with the story. Seuss definitely makes you think about the world and your impact on it. We are [...]

you are my sunshine printable {Mingle Monday}

For Valentine’s Day, my sweet husband made a playlist of all of our songs. Songs from while we were dating, songs we had sung in our wedding, songs that were favorites of Little Buddy’s growing up, and even newer songs that we love. It has to be one of my favorite presents ever. The other [...]

Fear of Failing {Mingle Monday}

  Some of my best conversations with Little Buddy happen either when we’re driving in the car or at night after I’ve tucked him into bed and the lights have been turned out.

the one about comparing yourself {Mingle Monday}

Pin It The other day I made a quick trip to the grocery store to pick up all those little things that we seem to go through faster than anything else – milk, butter, and strawberries. Let me back up just a second and tell you that that morning, I’d taken both dogs to the [...]

Pin It   Welcome back to Mingle Monday! Are y’all as addicted to Pinterest as I am? I sit down to visit my Pinterest world at least once during the day and then realize that so much time has past since I first sat down. One thing that I’ve learned is that this world is [...]
