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...

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,...

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...

One Little Word 2011: Home

Each year, Ali Edwards and a bunch of other folks choose a word for the year.  It’s kind of a resolution, a goal, and something to focus on in the coming year.  I usually think about doing it but for the past few years I’ve had a hard time settling in on a word- thinking hard about what that word might be even into January- and never really settling on just one word for the year.  This year, as I’ve had my word for 2011...

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

You know the adage about how no one wants to see hours of slideshow of your pictures from the trip they didn't take. I think of it the same in terms of someone browsing my albums- they don't care to see all those shots either! They don't need to go through page after page after page of the same trip.

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
