Wildsmith Wedding
Our dear friends Tim & Becca were wed this weekend, and I had the pleasure of partaking in their beautiful day. Tim has been doing merch for the guys (Kutless) since last Fall, and we’ve all grown to love and adore both he and his lovely now wife Becca. We are so incredibly happy for these two, and know that as a couple they are going to do amazing things. They have such an ability to...
Gin-O Boutique :: Outfit of the Week
We get so many amazing new pieces in each week at Gin-O, that I just can’t help but share them with you. I’ve been obsessed with this dress, and have been baffled that people haven’t tried it on much. I think people are intimidated by it. So everyone, come try this on, it’ll surprise you! It’s light and comfortable, can be dressed up or down, and is affordable!

Fireflies have captured my heart, as has the south. I absolutely love it here you guys. My husband was my main reason to come, but I think fireflies were another reason God had me come. He wanted to give me a gift and boy fireflies have sure been one. If you haven’t seen them before, get on a plane and come to my house now. They are absolutely magical.
I stood in my backyard for a good...
Maters
I’ve always been intimidated to start a garden, and I still am, but my lovely friend Jenn helped me take a baby step in that goal today. We met for coffee and she brought me a starter kit for tomato plants! I’m so excited. My goal is one day to not have to shop for hardly any produce. So here I go, one step at a time.
Little baby guys in their little soil beds, resting before they...
:: Sunday Adventures ::
Today Nick and I got up at the crack of dawn and drove to Huntsville, Alabama for church. We don’t do this every week, but on occasion our friend Derek (who leads worship at a church there) will ask Nick to play guitar in the worship band. This Sunday it was bass! Nick’s response, “Uh ya… sure… ya… I can play bass!” I was so proud of him learnin the set...

Disclaimer: this may be long and rambly. I apologize in advance.
My best girl friend Chloe and I have recently decided to start holding each other accountable in our walks with the Lord. We are going to begin skyping about what we’re reading, and about what God is revealing to us in our everyday lives. Anyway, I was talking to her the other day, and asked her if she thought about God...
Everlife :: Help me help them!
Hey everybody! Just wanted to clue you in on an awesome opportunity to bless some of my friends. I’ve gotten the privilege of getting to know one of my friends Amber here in Franklin, from the band Everlife. She’s the oldest of 3 sisters who formed the band over 15 years ago as young girls. They are INCREDIBLY talented, and have had quite a run as a band. This year they have decided...
Partee Favors from Georgia
This past weekend I had a full weekend off, which is fairly rare, and it happened to line up with a bus run to Valdosta, GA with my lovely husband. I started off the run with a nauseous tum tum, and was almost going to stay home, but decided that I felt up to it, and went right along south on a cozy bus to Wild Adventure Park! Woo!!:) What an adventure. Here’s some of the...
My Mama :: My Friend
This is an ode to my Mama. To a woman who brought me into this world. To a woman who has dealt with a whole lot of feistiness from me throughout my 26 years. A woman who endured years of my rebellion, and trusted the Lord with my heart. A woman who is beautiful and radiates Christ wherever she goes. A woman who makes me laugh to tears. A woman who expects dependency, and IS the most dependable...

Gin-O Boutique :: Outfit of the Week
So I didn’t stick true to my word about having one outfit post a week. Let’s just be realistic here… sometimes we get busy, and sometimes “we” don’t like having our picture taken:) I am admittedly extremely awkward when posing for photos. I’m workin’ on it. Here is my latest outfit of the week from Gin-O Boutique, where I LOVE working! Let me know...
Knockin' on the wrong door
I read my Proverb of the day today and was struck by the warning against the adulteress. Now this warning could be taken quite literally, cautioning a man to stay away from an actual woman who may be luring him away from his wife, however I fill in that word adulteress with whatever temptation or sin that is taunting me and trying to draw me away from my husband, Christ.
Verse 8 goes on to say,...
