Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend. Aaron and I celebrated the hope and healing that is found in the resurrection of our God. Our Easter weekend was a good mix of family time and time spent outdoors! Friday I worked a half day on Friday, and I as soon as I wrapped up, I power-cleaned…
Happy Friday! Not only is it Friday, but it’s Good Friday: the day that we pause to remember Jesus Christ’s crucifixion – and subsequent resurrection. And a celebration it is – Jesus died for you and me – so we can all live with the hope of Heaven! If you are curious about what this all means – I encourage…
Happy Friday! We made it ya’ll, and that is a big accomplishment in and of itself. My week has felt approximately 500 days long 🙂 I’ve been pulling some long days, and I don’t think it’s going to slow down until March is officially over. But, like I always say, it’s so important to separate work from every day life.…
Happy Thursday, friends! I’m back today after a two-day hiatus. I am going starting my morning off with a meeting – and I’m about to go through allll the emails from the last couple of days that I missed. Aaron and I decided last minute to join two of our best friends in Seaside, Florida for the long weekend and…
Happy Wednesday, ya’ll. I’ve shared bits and pieces of our home renovations that we did as a result of the freeze, and I’m here today to share the final product. If you are new around here, you can read about our new house here, and our subsequent damages during the freeze in February. And, while it was certainly not ideal…
Happy Monday, friends! I’m officially counting down the clock until I’ve got a week off from work. Five more days. I think it’s really important that everyone get away from work every now and then. I consider that time sacred – Aaron and I both do. I always feel recharged, relaxed – and just a better version of myself when…
I hope you all are having a great week. I’m sharing some things that have been on my mind lately, along with some fun things to do during Houston summers. I’m still over here trying to mentally recover from losing Buttercup late last week. It’s hard to believe that we started 2021 with two members of the fam who just…
Happy Tuesday, friends! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and that it was everything you needed it to be this strange year. We were supposed to host Christmas at our house, but our plans changed at the last minute, but it wouldn’t be 2020 if that didn’t happen. Am I right? Christmas 2020 My in laws decided not to…
I recapped the Houston Zoo Lights from years past a couple of weeks ago. They rescheduled the 2020 donor event due to weather, and last night was the rescheduled date. I was a bit worried that it would get rained out again, but the rain cleared out later in the afternoon. In order to maintain the flow of traffic through…
Happy Friday! During the holiday season, I cherish my weekends more than ever. It really gives me the chance to knock a ton of things off my to-do list that I just can’t seem to get done during the week. Before I begin, have you been following along with the Advent readings this week? The theme is faith, and it’s…
