Kitchen Help
As the title of this post suggests, I’ve decided to hire kitchen help. Things are getting stressful and I can’t take the whole “3-meals-a-day” thing anymore. I don’t even know what to say after starting off with such a corny joke. Except maybe – no, I’m not hiring any kitchen help, so no need to…

Lies Young Women Believe – Book 7
Before summer began, I decided to do a book study with the Junior and Senior girls from my youth group. I was looking for a book to do with them and was considering studying Lies Women Believe by Nancy Leigh DeMoss. But the more I read it, the more I saw that the illustrations and…

Strawberry Pretzel Salad
Happy Wednesday! Today, I have one of my favorite picnic foods to share with you. I hope you have all tried this stuff. If you haven’t…well, you just need to organize a picnic with your friends or family just so you can make this dish. Or do what I do and just make it for…

A “fun” project for ya…
Hello all! I hope you had a great weekend. We sure did. I went to 2 yard sales on Saturday – they weren’t the best in the world. One of them was advertised as a “Multi-Family Yard Sale in Millionaire neighborhood.” They said they had pottery barn decor and kids’ stuff, so I went with…

Awesome Idea
I think you know I’ve been working on photography – little by little. Usually I carry my camera around in this: You know, it gets the job done and it does it well. It keeps my camera equipment safe and that’s the most important thing, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah…but it would be nice to look…

Vaca Pics!
Hey! I’m home, rested, and my house is a wreck. Seriously – my floor looks like it hasn’t been vacuumed for years. And we had last-minute-company over yesterday. That’s how things roll around here… ๐ We had an awesome time together in Hilton Head! Our fave part was just being together. Summers are so busy…

Encouragement
Hello all! I am on vacation in Hilton Head (in case that wasn’t clear from all my freaking out facebook and twitter updates recently) ;), so this week’s posts will be much less normal than usual because I’m planning to spend most of my time with my family instead of on the computer blogging. See,…

Protecting Your Child Through Prayer – Book 6
Well, folks, I was happily going along my merry little blogging way, and realized I forgot to do a book review post last month. Aaannd the month before that. Yeah. Blame it on the pregnancy. I can blame everything on that, right? Yes – but I already talked about that. ๐ Anyway, I have been…

Scrub-a-dub-dub
There’s a part of homemaking that is not all about creating and crafting beautiful things. It’s the down-to-earth part that makes you sweaty and dirty. But if you don’t do it, your home won’t be beautiful – no matter how much time & $ you put into it. A few months ago, I got on…
