Okay, so it’s been what? A year since my last entry? So many things have changed since then. SO many. I met and married my husband Derek and moved to Austin, Texas. Yep, I went from a small California town where everyone knows everyone (and their brother) and you really can’t go anywhere without running…

Sacramento Trip
This post contains affiliate links I was lucky enough to travel to Sacramento, on Wednesday for my 2nd business trip. There’s nothing like waking up and leaving for work before Starbucks is open. I wasn’t as nervous to fly this time around as I have been reading Trusting God by Jerry Bridges which has been…
Morning Stroll Through the Secret Garden
April 18, 2014 Do y’all remember this story from childhood? I felt like I was there when I went running/walking this morning. I have today and Monday off of work and have packed the weekend full of plans with loved ones and while it should be a time to rest and relax I woke up…
My Week in Pictures // Spring Break Edition
My roommate Court and I decided to be “spontaneous” and went to Oceanside one night. Sunset surf I heart peeps! Court and I bought some flowers and decorated our porch. I definitely took advantage of the free Pantone paint samples at Lowe’s I am in love with these bulbs that are growing right outside my…
Baltimore Trip 2014
Since a picture is worth a thousand words, here a few to highlight my first business trip to Baltimore (which was also my first trip to the East Coast. . . I don’t get out much) that occurred back in November. I went to Baltimore, Maryland for a conference and was so nervous about flying….
My Week in Pictures September 30, 2013 – October 6, 2013
This abandoned property is simply lovely. I sure will miss these views when I move out of the plex. How fun is this? Why yes, I do take random pictures in the grocery store. I listed to this message from the Redemption Church podcast and was very encouraged! Thursday I went out to Yard House…
My Week in Pictures
I take my lunch breaks in my car and was working on some home work when I noticed the light and shadows here.So pretty! I’ve been drinking loose leaf tea and realized that I don’t have to strain the tea in a bowl and then pour it into my cup. I can just use the silver…
Farmer’s Market Fun
I’ve been trying to post this since yesterday, (well I’ve been trying to post for months but had to wait for the inspiration to come) but other things have been taking up my time. I also wanted the re-design to be complete before I posted anything (I may or may not be a perfectionist). I…
Tune in Tuesday
Let’s be honest with ourselves here – as dignified American citizens, there would be nothing worse than having to publicly admit we listen to Country music because after all, listening to music about tractors, alcohol, dogs and just plain evil revenge plots, is a little – well, silly. Most of us don’t spend our days…
A Theology of Tragedy
In light of recent events (the shooting at Sandy Hook, the Dorner shooting and today’s explosions in Boston) I believe that I have a responsibility as one who follows Christ to shed light on why tragedy happens and what your response should be whether or not you follow Christ. I would like to begin by admonishing you…
