Deja Vu…
Today we had a family dinner. We try to have one about every month or so. I love when we have them on Sundays because Sundays were always the “family day” growing up. We would go to church in the morning and then the rest of the day was usually spent with just the four…

You Don’t Have To Build A Rollercoaster…
Shoutout to all the people who will get the obscure reference that is this post’s title. 😉 I’m not really sure how it happened. Maybe it’s because I turned 35 a few weeks ago. But I’ve really been thinking about the passage time. As Kamala Harris once said, “There is such a great significance to…

“In Everything… Be…”
One of the things I am reminded of every time I go to the mountains is to just relax and be. With our now-annual girls trips and the annual women’s conference, sometimes the desire to do things starts to become overwhelming for me. I can’t speak for anyone else, and that’s fine, because this is…

Keep An Eye Out
This one’s for you, Bekki. 😉 As I was trying to go to sleep tonight, I turned on my go-to “sleeping music,” K-Love 90s. A song came on that was big around the time we lived in Washington State, and it caused me to go through the whole timeline of what happened in the world…

Do I Surrender All?
Happy New Year!The Lord has prevented me from posting until now, and I’m only posting this for my own posterity and not really for anyone else’s. As is usually the case with the turn of a calendar year, I began with some goals in mind. Achievable, but not so easy that I would have them…

Blimey Camp 2024, Pt. 3
Sunday morning, I woke up at 6:52am because all but two other women in the cabin were awake and trying to silently pack. I rapidly ruined that silence by accidentally knocking my plastic travel coffee mug onto the floor. “Well, I guess we’re all awake now,” I muttered loudly. No one responded, but I did…

Blimey Camp 2024, Pt. 2
This is part 2 of 3 about my Blimey Camp experience last weekend. This is going to be the longest blog since this was the only full day of Blimey Camp. Yesterday, we left off with a question: did the Lord wake me up in the morning? What time? The answers to those questions are:…

Blimey Camp 2024, Pt. 1
This post will be 1 of 3, for each day of Blimey Camp. These may just be story posts, or they may have a lesson… I may do one that is an overall lesson after these 3… we shall see… This past weekend, I went to Tennessee to meet up with a bunch of other…
