We went to see one of our elderly friends this week, a lady in her late eighties whom we’ve known for almost eleven years. She’s gotten to the point where she can’t drive anymore, can’t go out and can’t do all the things she used to do. She’s been like a grandma to our entire family for the longest time, and she never fails to remind us of her love for our family. Time keeps floating by, and as it does her conversation holds more of heaven than I think it ever has before. She keeps saying she’s just waiting…

In Which I Fall In Love With Canon DSLRS
I am just all messed up! I think that’s pretty obvious – I missed Monday Inspiration yesterday, and am posting on the day I normally don’t. But you know what, sometimes change is great, and today I just wanted to write a long-winded blog post about photography and cameras and me. (I also wanted to post tons of photos. You’ve been forewarned. ;) ) I’ve had a Canon Powershot SX20IS for the past three years, and it’s been great. But on Saturday my dad let me use his Canon T1i for the afternoon…and it was awesome. I know it sounds…
Finding My Voice
When I started my first blog in 2010, I really had no idea what I was doing. At that point I signed up for Blogger because the Windows Live blog I had been using wouldn’t allow me to add custom HTML and JavaScript widgets to the sidebar. Blogger would. I knew next to nothing about coding or design – I did know, though, that you could copy and paste some text and get something cool out of it! My focus was on photography (and I’ll admit right now that I wasn’t very good!), and I considered my blog a fun…
Dreams
I want to live quietly. To go back to how it was before modern life came and swept away so much of what people used to know years ago. I want to go back to a time where women listened to the call inside them and made their houses beautiful and loved their families, where you would be criticized for going out into the world on your own but not for living quietly with your husband. I want to go back to a time when girls weren’t bombarded by people asking them what college they were going to or what…
2012
This year has been filled with the unexpected, the hard, and the beautiful. Each year when we reach the end and I look back, it never seems quite right that the new year is upon us. I always find myself wondering where the year went, how it could go by so quickly, and what the next might bring. I’m one of those people who loves to hold on to and remember the past, so New Years is always bittersweet. 2012 was a big year for me in so many ways. I have learned so much about design, about being unique…
