Last night I had a dream- a dream that was so vivid, so real. I was driving down a paved road that leads to my childhood home- dark surrounding- my headlights creating sight in the black night. When all of a sudden, hundreds of people filled the road all walking towards me. At first I […]
Your sunrises are there every morning, sunsets every night. The world spins, splits, cries & laughs- & You see it all. As hate & death spews out, Your word stands true. Life & love is in Your words. You are ever near, even when it doesn’t feel so. You care & understand, even when it […]
Trust God. Trust yourself. For years and years I’ve written and spoke the words, “Help me to trust You.” I’ve analyzed, pondered, and researched my life. Always questioning if I’m truly doing what God wants me to do. What areas do I need to improve in? Rules and regulations creeping their way into my heart. […]
I am a puzzle person. Give me a puzzle, a beverage, maybe a snack and I will be good for literally hours. It’s hard for me to walk away from an unfished puzzle, anyone else?! Over Christmas my mom and me spent hours upon hours putting together a 1000 piece puzzle over the course of […]

Why I love design- why creativity brings me joy- for I was made in Your image- the author of creation. It only is right I would desire to create beauty in this world.
Hello friends! Can you all believe next week is Thanksgiving?! Per usual, life is moving at record speed. Last weekend my oldest daughter, Jayde, and me spent the weekend together in Omaha. I surprised her with tickets to Hamilton and she was BEYOND excited! I have never taken a one on one trip with her […]
Today, I spent 11.355555 hours making homemade chili and cinnamon rolls. If you know, then you know. Do you know? After 11.1227277 hours, I couldn’t get the warm rolls out of the pan fast enough and on to plates for the girls to enjoy. By the time I sat down to eat, no more rolls […]
