Every Friday I like to join other Christian writers over at Five Minute Friday. Our purpose is to encourage one another through our writing and networking. This week the prompt is Woman. Below is my five minutes of unedited, uninterrupted writing: One of the hardest parts of being a woman is making the choice whetherContinue reading “Woman: Five Minute Friday”

England 2018: Week 1 Review
I cannot believe that we’ve been in the sunny UK for one week now. Packing a year worth of visits into one month really makes time fly. Watching the girls connect with their British family and heritage makes all of the hassle of travel worth it. This first week was spent adjusting to the timeContinue reading “England 2018: Week 1 Review”
Flight to the UK
One of the perks of marrying into a British family–annual trips to England. Each summer since 2008 I have made the journey to England to visit with my husband’s family. This year the trip will last an entire month. We have a lot planned and I’m really excited to share with you some of ourContinue reading “Flight to the UK”
Catching You Up to Speed: Part 2
I took a year hiatus from blogging for many reasons. The major reason behind my break was because I was pregnant and exhausted. And as any parent knows, the months that lead up to and follow the birth of new little one are tiring. I didn’t have the energy or drive to write on mostContinue reading “Catching You Up to Speed: Part 2”
Catching You Up to Speed: Part 1
I’ve been absent for a year for many reasons. To start with…our family has grown by one, beautiful baby girl. Pregnancy made me sick and exhausted and to be honest I just didn’t have the energy to keep up with the blog. I still wrote on a somewhat consistent basis, but blogging was less ofContinue reading “Catching You Up to Speed: Part 1”
Family Adventures in Boston (Part 3)
Day 4: Natick and Framingham After several days of travel in the car, we planned one day where we wouldn’t have to sit in gridlocked traffic entering the city. Since our hotel was in a suburb of Boston we set out to explore the surrounding area. Our discoveries led us to a very nice mallContinue reading “Family Adventures in Boston (Part 3)”
Family Adventures in Boston (Part 2)
Day 3: Boston On the east coast, you can’t drive five miles without running into a Dunkin’ Doughnuts. So after our first night in Boston we loaded up our rental car and made a pit stop at Dunkin’ Doughnuts before heading into the city. The night before, we purchased ferry tickets to Spectacle Island fromContinue reading “Family Adventures in Boston (Part 2)”
Family Adventures in Boston (Part 1)
Before embarking on our annual trip to England visiting with my husband’s family we decided to drive to Boston, Massachusetts for a family vacation. We spent five days in this coastal metropolis and made so many family memories that I couldn’t pack it all into one post. Over the next several days, I will provideContinue reading “Family Adventures in Boston (Part 1)”
Five Minute Friday: Worth
What is Five Minute Friday? It is a link-up (which is equivalent to a Meet-and-Greet in the world of blogging.) Each week, the topic changes and participants are encouraged to take five minutes to write according to the prompt. Because you only have five minutes, posts are raw and unedited. Luckily, Five Minute Friday isContinue reading “Five Minute Friday: Worth”
Life Updates
In life we go through many seasons. Although every journey is different one thing that remains true is that each season has its own ups and downs. For the past several weeks I’ve experienced some of the highest points I can remember, but they’ve been coupled with times of trial. I’ve started new personal projectsContinue reading “Life Updates”
