Another Chicken

When our youngest was little, she and my husband used to run errands after work. They would stop by the bank, pick up a few things at the grocery store, or swing by Lowe’s to pick up something for the latest home project (the youngest really disliked that last stop). It almost became a game…

Seeing Differently

Over the weekend my husband and I did some spring cleaning, so to speak. We moved back into our home after having some remodeling done. It took longer than we expected, which admittedly was frustrating, but we are back home now and getting settled. We spent the weekend putting things away, wiping down pictures, putting…

Yes, there is the event’s pageantry the beautiful attire, derby hats and seersucker suits, the fabulous foods of the south, and of course the traditional mint julep!

Today is the Day

It really is you know. Today is the day for…whatever God wants you to do. This morning as I was thinking about this little blog and asking for guidance on what to share I realized that today is another new day. Father made us to rise to see another sunrise. He will bring people into…

When Music Comes to Life

Last night, my husband and I had a date night. We went to see one of my favorite groups, Mercy Me, in concert. We’ve seen them before, many years ago, and I was just as excited to see them this time. We were supposed to see them last October, but Hurricane Milton forced them to…

The Sounds of Saturday

Ahhh…yes, Saturday morning, it’s my fave morning of the week. I know, newsflash it’s the fave morning of the week for many people for obvious reasons. It’s the weekend, a little later start to the day, hopefully no work on the agenda, it’s just a different feel. This morning as I sat outside and had…

Picture of Hope

Last night our oldest daughter sent us a text message. There was a picture of a young couple, looking as if they were posing for their engagement pictures. You could tell it was an older picture. As I looked at it trying to determine if I knew the couple, (which I didn’t), she went on…
