Happy Monday and Happy Easter:) Well, happy Easter week. I’m a bit early perhaps but I will be posting my monthly Share Four Somethings on Thursday and, well, then Easter will be officially here. So, I thought I would take the time to not only wish everyone the loveliest of…

Christmas Traditions – Then and Now
My friend, Leslie, has invited (and encouraged) us to share ten Christmas traditions. Sounds simple but ten is actually a lot. But, on Instagram, she encouraged us to give it “the old college try” and so I will:) Traditions around here have changed and some have evolved or others have…
Reflections on Another Birthday
Today marks another birthday. Another birthday that should have been – but will be missed. My sweet Tyler, who has been in Heaven for thirteen years, would have been twenty-seven. Yes, a grown man with, no doubt, a family and home of his own, but we still would have made…
Five Years
Five Years. I type those two words…and then I sit here. Speechless. Overwhelmed. And heartbroken. Can it truly be five entire years since our sweet Tyler breathed his last breath here on earth? Yes, he awoke to breathe new air (“and found it celestial” as the beautiful song goes) but…
A Little Bit of Americana
Already Thursday and I have not been able to blog since Thursday. I guess becoming high-maintenance really does interfere with your computer time….oh, and your cleaning time, making dinner time, and – well, you get the picture. Definitely time to rethink my daily/weekly schedule. But, onto better topics:) We had…
Planning for the Ladies’ Trip
Outside my window…yet another beautiful day!! Really this fall has been gorgeous. I think I am getting lulled into thinking this could actually last. Yeah right. I sure would be thrilled if the nasty weather could hold off for at least another three weeks – the first weekend in December…
August 1st – Four Years…..

Finally…..
Probably my favorite picture of all time…….. My Three Favorite Men!! No, it won’t win any photography awards..but it is priceless to me. My son, Jordan – now the airman – My buddy, Tyler – now celebrating everyday in Glory – and my Hubbie, the rock that hold us all…
Good Buddies, Great Friends
Remember the party – for Tyler’s 13th birthday – I mentioned on Monday….and all of his buddies who are graduating?? Just had to share a quick picture. All of these guys have really grown (for some…literally!! The guy in the burgundy t-shirt is 6’7″ now!) into handsome young men! I…
Morgan and Books – Thankful Thursday
Tyler would have been a senior this year (hard to imagine)! And I knew this year was going to be tough and I have tried hard to protect my heart; however, these last couple months of school are so full of activity and events that I so miss seeing Tyler…
I Serve a Risen Savior
Hubbie and I spent some time yesterday afternoon working out at the cemetery….putting down fresh mulch and some fertilizer as well. Tyler’s tree is not yet in bloom but the dark mulch really looked nice and the afternoon was so beautiful, it really was a balm for our hearts. Another…
Still Making an Impact
I think I’ve finally got this scanner up and running!! Hopefully you won’t get tired of my pictures…I’ve noticed I have a lot of “older” photos that I really enjoy (and spent some time looking through photos yesterday – you know, all those ones that I so desperately need to…
