A Great Deception

This picture is deceptive…as it is not in fact me, but Lily, my mini-me! We are all craving authenticity. When I set out to make this blog, that’s all I wanted to offer, an authentic perspective on such important topics of faith and family life…because if we can’t get that right, what do we have?ContinueContinue reading “A Great Deception”

Beauty from Ashes; Leaves from Dry Bones!!

Just a few beautiful blooms are starting to come out in our backyard!! I love it when spring feels near :). Our internet went out.

Anyways…of course I call them back severalContinueContinue reading “Beauty from Ashes; Leaves from Dry Bones!!”

The Best Valentine’s Gift You Could Receive…

Back to the topic of Motherhood for a minute. I’m sure there are many other moms out there who can sympathize with me…motherhood is like being a circus performer at times.

Back in college, I rushed the Christian sorority ADX at San Diego State University. It was a very defining time in myContinueContinue reading “Spiderman Surprise!!”

Cotton Candy and Carnival Lights

Pic from the girls’ Lisa Frank Birthday Party in August! I Just took the girls last night to their very first carnival. It totally brought me back to some of my most magical memories. It’s so funny, how carnivals can be so dirty, so expensive, so seemingly unsafe…but nothing is quite like the feeling youContinueContinue reading “Cotton Candy and Carnival Lights”
