Please Be Spring!

March 30, 2016

This time of year is so hard for me living in Southeast Idaho. We’re still weeks behind many surrounding areas that are seeing the first flowers and leaves of spring. Yesterday, my sister-in-law posted a fun picture of spring in Atlanta, Georgia. The trees were already beginning to show green. I get crocus, and the first…

What This Blog Is All About

March 5, 2015

I truly believe my life is a masterpiece in the works. I love trying new things, learning, growing and sharing what I learn along the way. I believe each of us has a champion hidden inside, the trick is to help unlock it. This blog exists for this reason. Because my masterpiece isn’t a one…

She Just Knew

June 26, 2014

It’s been three weeks. Three weeks since our little Jaimee joined us and every day I am still pinching myself. She is so tiny, so perfect and such a good baby! This 22 year surprise has sure been an interesting mix of complete unknowns, yet at the same time framed with so many instances where I just…

Calisthenics of the Heart

June 10, 2014

If there were marathons for heart growth and work outs, I’m certain I’d be on in it. The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of extreme heart stretching experiences. I watched my daughter (now pushing the threshold of 17 years old), get her own car and start her own job; been on bed rest…

Peace On Earth

December 24, 2013

Nothing speaks peace quite as well as a beautiful Christmas day with white blanketing everything: I’m still adjusting to winters back in the snow. I may never adjust. But I must admit, the fog that rolled in this past week sure made for some pretty trees and winter scenes. Blake continues to wear his shorts…

Pink Crayons, Changes and Gratitude

November 25, 2013

It appears that time continues to march on. This picture is already a few weeks old and the willow tree is devoid of any leaves, but I thought the picture a fitting one for this post. It captures all three things on my mind today: colorful and beautiful pictures, seasonal changes, and the feeling of…

I Just Wanna…

August 22, 2013

Do everything! Have everything done!!! This is my wish today. Well, mostly my wish. It is tempered with knowledge that there is no such thing as “done”, so maybe my real wish is that there could be such a thing as done?! Probably not, as that would mean the end of progress and I’m rather…

Gardening, Weeding and Watering…Oh My!

July 18, 2013

I admit it, I’m a perfectionist. I visualize a Martha Stewart style yard and garden with perfect borders, no weeds, freshly turned dirt around beautiful plants and flowers, etc. I revel in capturing a few photos like this one when things in the yard seem to nearly reach my visual expectations:       This…

Blooming

June 20, 2013

They say to bloom where you’re planted. I don’t think this just happens because all the conditions are right. I think we have to work hard to find what’s missing or imbalanced in our lives and fix the problems so we can bloom. Just a few weeks ago this same flower pot was struggling. Only…

Big Jobs

April 25, 2013

    If you’re going big, dream big right? Just kidding. This post isn’t about big cars but it seemed a fun intro! This post is however about the connection between big jobs/decisions, and the corresponding big requirements and tools. My husband and I are in the process of helping take over the care and…
