the grass IS greener (but, not necessarily better)

When we lived in Tucson, I often lamented to Tim about the quality of the grocery stores. "Where can a girl get a decent loaf of bread in this town?" "This produce is terrible!" "Why are the stores so uninspiring?" Then, I started traveling the USA...and I realized that our whole country has some serious […]

here we are in Woodbine, Georgia

We're kickin' it in Woodbine, Georgia (bet you've never heard of it) for a whole week - maybe more. The owners of thisĀ campground are young and from Australia. They have 4 kids and are super friendly - and the rates are among the most reasonable we've come upon. We walk down to the Crooked River […]

She knows what she wants to be

"Do you know what I'm going to be?" my 4-year-old asked me this morning. She didn't wait for an answer: "A nurse and a writer." She continued: AND - I'm going to be a Bible Maker. And do you know what else? A schoolteacher that shows people about God. And a person that helps sick […]

Tim says that I am becoming a hippie

Tim says that my blog is "evolving." It's happening because [I] am evolving - as a person, a mother, a giver, a traveler, a doer. I'm still figuring out how to write about all of these changes in my heart and in my life. I don't want to just write about travel stuff. BUT...then again, […]

wine tasting in sonoita

This past Saturday, Tim and I met up with Jeff and Darcie for an impromptu day trip to Sonoita. We had been talking about going wine tasting for months...and the stars aligned at the last minute. Tim & I both enjoy drinking wine with dinner, but we know very little about the whole thing. Our […]

it's my birthday

I have a birthday tradition of taking a non-spectacular self-portrait with my phone. See left. This year, you'll see a little impatience in my eyes. I was so hoping that I'd be celebrating my birthday in Texas this year, but...we're not quite ready to launch. So many times, I've wanted to just jump in the […]

family photo shoot {final favorites}

Tim's cousins Megan and Lacey recently did a photo shoot for us. They don't have a biz (yet), but they have super nice cameras and a flair for the creative (as you can clearly see). I want to make it a goal to get professional family photos taken at least once a year (and I'm […]

this is my beauty routine {blush}

This is my entire make-up collection. On most days, I just wear a little bit of tinted moisturizer, a quick stroke of mascara, and red lipstick (red is my favorite). You'll probably notice that everything in my collection is the cheap drug store variety {blush}. I'm curious: Is make-up one of those things where the […]
