“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…

You Say Goodbye, I Say Hello
Last week, my bestest friend Esther and I went on a road trip with her brother to move her back to her childhood home for a little while. The Lord called her back there and while I’m excited for her new adventures, I’m sad she is so far away. When I went back to work…

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…

Finishing Well

Well, it really means that, for the foreseeable future, I will no longer be enrolling in races like this. The above certificate is from the Plaza 10K event in Kansas City, Missouri. This was my second time…

Death, Adventures, and Birthdays
Today would be my dad’s 53rd birthday, and as I do every Sunday morning, I went to church. Since we’re still in Colorado, my best friends and I went to Legacy Church, pastored by Jeremy Pearsons. The story of how we found the church and then decided it was worth going during our vacation is…

‘Enjoy Yourself’
This year, the Lord told me to make sure to schedule some time off to enjoy my life, my family, and my friends. It started off small; I planned a weekend away with my two best friends. From there, it kind of snowballed. My mom and I are planning two trips to see her parents…

A Snow Day!
Today I woke up to a snow day. As a self-employed person, I have the luxury of taking the day off when the sky decides to dump 6 inches of snow. Thankfully I had cleared the schedule when they began threatening the amount of snow we were supposed to get. I’m really glad I did,…
