When I decided to begin my Master's degree it was mostly out of excitement. I love learning. I love being in the classroom. I was even more excited because the degree program I entered is centered around homemaking. Something I am obviously very interested.However, I never really gave much thought to what I would do… Continue reading Finding Direction
Finding Time Again
I can't believe it has really been since June that I took the time to sit down and write on here. Looking back at the past few months I can't really be all that surprised. There have been A LOT of things that have taken place and, honestly, I don't know that I would have… Continue reading Finding Time Again
Embracing the Adventure

Thirty-One Gifts is a direct sales, party planning company. They specialize in bags, purses, home and office… Continue reading Embracing the Adventure
Don’t Worry About Tomorrow
It has been nearly 2 years since we moved our family to Fort Worth for Seminary. As I look back I remember questions and conversations that were had over and over again. Constantly we were asked how we would pay our bills? Where we would live? How would we survive? And every time we had… Continue reading Don’t Worry About Tomorrow

With just over two weeks left of school for this semester I am managing… Continue reading A bit of an update
Will We Ever Catch A Break

We knew that there would be very little time for us to spend together as a family, even less time to spend as a couple, and that money was going to… Continue reading Will We Ever Catch A Break
Growing Up…

At the beginning of the season, when the contestants audition, they always talk about who they are, their age, and… Continue reading Growing Up…
My path is paved with good intentions….
It never fails. I spend hours and hours putting together schedules and charts and all that ridiculous pinterest-y type stuff in an effort to "get organized" and "make things a little easier."I go at it for a week or so and yes, things do tend to go more smoothly and I even begin to see some… Continue reading My path is paved with good intentions….
Its official: I’m over it!
Warning: This could get a bit long and probably a bit whiney, but I just have to vent sometimes.Let me begin by saying that I know that life probably isn't as bad as I am most likely going to make it sound. I know that. Rationally, I know all that. But that doesn't mean that… Continue reading Its official: I’m over it!
