Though I’m not much of a singer, I have a deep appreciation for music. Over the past year there’s been a change in my music listening habits. Specifically in my ‘Christian’ music listening habits. (And, yes, I think it is silly some music is ‘Christian’ and other music isn’t. See Blimey Cow The Problem with Christian…
Read MoreNo, you didn’t misread the title. I truly met the happiest Walmart worker this week. And I’m not being sarcastic! My husband and I recently made a trip to Wally World to upgrade his iPhone3 (yes, his phone was that old) and the associate who waited on us was just phenomenal!
Read MoreIf y’all remember, at the beginning of the month I did a ‘June Resolutions‘ link up with Kelli from She Learns as She Goes. Time to give a report! Get Through My 1st Trimester! Yes! We did it! lol I’ll be posting a pregnancy update soon(ish), but Ben and I have been thanking God for…

Read MoreI really get into my music. Give me a heartfelt Adele tune or an angsty Mumford & Sons number and I’ll be tapping my toes, swaying my hips, and moving my hands to the beat. At least, as much to the beat as I’m able to follow. You see, while I was given a deep musical…

Read MoreThis month’s ‘5 Things That Fired Me Up‘ has been fondly renamed ‘5 Things You Should Never Say To A Pregnant Lady’. (DISCLAIMER: If you have ever said any of these things to me, or to any other pregnant lady, this is a no-judging zone. I promise. I do love you!) — 1) I thought you…

Read MoreDear Grad, First and foremost, congratulations! You’ve made a huge accomplishment. You’ve finished one chapter and are about to begin another. You’ve studied hard (let’s face it, probably played hard), got your act together somewhere along the way, and made it to the end. Well done! I know what it’s like to graduate. I’ve graduated…
