Welcome 2012 with One Little Word: Shine

Welcome 2012 with One Little Word: Shine

Happy New Year everyone!  I’ve been busy catch up on several Big Picture classes that started today (One Little Word, Move More/Eat Well, and Twelve- yikes it’s a lot for one day!)  Cody is, of course, at the deer lease- last day of deer season.  I used to say it’s the last day of hunting season- yes, I was naive.  NOW, oh no, hunting season is year round.  But it does mean it’s time to start thinking about the next...

2011 in One Little Word: Home

2011 in One Little Word: Home

 You may recall that I chose a word for 2011.  Home.  You might even recall that I participated in Ali’s 2011 One Little Word class.  To be honest, while I participated, I didn’t keep up with the album this year.  And, I really didn’t blog about Home as much as I wanted to.  But, the one thing that stayed constant was a focus on Home. In fact, so much of the focus was about Home- especially in the past 6 months that I...

December Daily- December 1st

December Daily- December 1st

It’s December Daily time again.  I enjoyed this project so much last year that despite life’s chaos right now, I’m going for it again.  It brought so much to the holiday season last year.  I knew I needed to keep it simple so I created a basic design to be printed at home on 4X6 photo paper.  This year is all about making these simple for me. I don’t have real internet access these days (hoping that changes next week,...

Mad Cow Disease? Not Enough Beef?

Mad Cow Disease? Not Enough Beef?

The view outside my office window has recently changed. Sadly they cut down the really large tree that was so beautiful earlier this month after it was struck by lightening several months back. Tuesday morning around 7 AM, I saw a loose cow out in the field and had to share my experience with Cody via text. There wasn’t anyone around to share my view outside my window with. Me: LOL! I looked out the window and thought the big tree’s...

At this very moment

- I’m pedaling away at the Rec center (and feeling it.) Please forgive me if I’m not succinct. - I’m listening to the Field of Dreams soundtrack while some college “kids” play softball- the intramural fields are far from a field of dreams though. - in other views, I can see the ag building where Cody and I spent so much time in school. - I can also see the arboretum. I’m reminded of the summer it seemed I...

One Little Word Update, Blog Hop, and Giveaway

January’s Gone, but not my One Little Word.  Home.  In fact, I feel a bit renewed as a new month begins.  This month should mean less travel and more time at home.  I’m already tuning in to developing some better routines here at home.  Some observations from January: 1) I knew this year would I’d be spending more nights waiting for Cody to come home.  But bright and early New Year’s Day, my One Little Word and the...

About Me

Welcome! Hi all! I live in rural East Texas with my husband. I'm passionate about telling our everyday and rather ordinary story through words and pictures here on my blog and on my digitally scrapbooked pages. Geek. Creative. Problem Solver. Traditional. Introverted. Those are all words that you might use to describe me. I love to have fun while stilling keeping it calm and simple.

My thoughts

For me, personally, I don't do hidden journaling on my scrapbook pages. I want my albums to be readily accessible to anyone that comes into my house. I want them to feel safe to peruse and get to read the stories without them worrying about getting to the hidden journaling or worrying about messing anything up. I don't take the time to tell the story for someone not to read it because they missed something hidden.

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26
