"Girl, it's not about you.." *whispers to self for the twentieth time today* I'm sure most of you are aware of self-help books. These books are everywhere on social media and in stores, and in the minds and hearts of the countless women who have read them. Before I begin, I want to preface by… Continue reading girl, it’s not about you.

white lace.
Two years ago on July 29th I found myself feeling so many emotions that I became numb as I laid in the dark quiet of my bed with one of my bridesmaids (hi, Alecia) attempting to fall asleep. I stared at the ceiling for a while, then rolled onto my side to stare at the… Continue reading white lace.
calendar curse.
Last month, I came across something that hit me like a ton of bricks as I was reading my bible.

Now, let me… Continue reading struggle bus.
establishing my steps.
"In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps." - Proverbs 16:9 Throughout my relationship with my husband, Justin, I've always been asked how we met.

We knew at the end of the month we'd be putting on costumes and running around town with our friends to consume as much candy as possible.
