A lifestyle blog centered around intentional, joyful living that is Christ-centered
It has been a month since I have sat back and poured into this blog. Actually, it's been a month since I've truly taken time to reflect on all that has been going on for our family. We're in a season of chaos... Actually, I feel like mine and Dustin's relationship has always included chaos,... Continue Reading →
In efforts to be transparent, I'm going to share something with you, my friends. I have started this blog post again and again, but I always become a little overwhelmed (or a lot overwhelmed) and I quit. Like, what did I do to deserve such a supportive and loving group to do life with? ... Continue Reading →
We let fear talk us out of doing crazy, exciting things. Sometimes, we even let fear talk us out of doing the small, little things. I want to own my own business. Psh..that's not a real job.

I'll admit to having a certain level of pride in my independence. I enjoy the confidence that comes from knowing I can accomplish something on my own. But like my favorite podcast, Journeywomen, likes to remind me — we don't live our lives in a solitary bubble. Our stories are rich with all kinds of... Continue Reading →
I wish I had something profound to say on this Tuesday evening, but in all reality I don’t. I was young when 9/11 happened. I didn’t understand it then, and I don’t understand it now.

September is self-care awareness month and in honor of that Brently and I wanted to feature the different ways that we implement self-care in our lives. Just as we advocate wellness in our physical and spiritual health, we strongly believe in being intentional about our mental health. We can only run on the dregs for... Continue Reading →
