I’m kicking off my 2019 FMF streak with a late post. In Ohio, I spent my Friday preparing for the imminent arrival of this weekend’s snowpocalypse. After school yesterday I joined the rest of the state at the grocery store stocking up on necessities. If you want to join in on the weekly fun overContinue reading “Better: Five Minute Friday”

Fall Break 2018
The past week was Fall Break in the school district where my husband and I teach (and our daughter goes to school.) We were extremely busy during this week with traveling, hospital visits, big news, and family time. Below is a look at all that happened during the past seven days (it’s all out ofContinue reading “Fall Break 2018”
Coffee Fest and Rob Bell
Date nights don’t happen nearly as often as they should. At this point in our lives we have two girls (one of which is an infant) and they keep us busy. Balancing work and family seems like a farfetched myth. But every so often the stars align and we are able to getContinue reading “Coffee Fest and Rob Bell”

Our First Geocache Adventure
Geocache- the act of using GPS services to locate a hidden package or item. Over Spring break my husband and I found ourselves with some alone time.

“Another Opening, Another Show…”
The Pumpkin Show is an annual festival held in my hometown of Circleville, Ohio. This is the greatest FREE show on Earth and one of the largest local festivals in the country. Each year, the schools shut down, the roads are closed, and people travel from near and far to enjoy some days indulging inContinue reading ““Another Opening, Another Show…””
The New Columbus Library
It’s been a long time coming, but the wait is finally over! Over a year ago the Columbus Metropolitan Library Main Branch shut its doors to begin the remodeling process. Already it was the most beautiful library I had ever visited and I couldn’t imagine what type of work would go into this new constructionContinue reading “The New Columbus Library”
Race Day Snapshots
This weekend I finished the Patron Quarter Marathon in Columbus. My official time was 1:08:57. I ran the race with my friend, Leah. We ran eleven minute miles fairly consistently until mile 5 and then we left all we had on that course and finished strong. In the last mile I passed 97 people!!!! This wasContinue reading “Race Day Snapshots”
Stand In The Place Where You Live
Lately, I’ve been on the prowl to find some unique pieces for a couple of gallery walls in my house. Currently, there is a wall in progress in the living room and one in the kitchen of more themed pieces. Over the weekend, while on a shopping escapade I had a wonderful idea: why notContinue reading “Stand In The Place Where You Live”
