A while back I had an idea of asking those apart of the Joy Because Grace newsletter to submit any questions they had for me to be addressed in a Q&A format blog post. I love Q&A style posts, and I think this could be a fun way for y’all to get to know me better. At the end of the post I’ll tell you how you can submit questions if you’d like :) Let’s get started… How old are… Read more »
As many of y’all know, I attended my first bloggers conference the last weekend in July. Heading into the weekend I felt very nervous. I didn’t know anyone who was going, I knew I was going to be one of the youngest people there, and I was worried about how I was going to get from the hotel to the church were the conference was held, since I wasn’t going to have a car with me. If you’re a part… Read more »
Hey y’all! I’m going to my first ever blogging conference in a little less than a month and I am SOOOO excited :) :) :) It’s the Declare Conference which is hosted in Dallas, Texas. And since it’s almost time for the conference, and so the Declare team thought it would be fun for us to do a link up to get to know each other. And seeing as how it’s been a while since I’ve done an “About Me”… Read more »
So today I’m trying out something new… A VLOG!!! I have never vlogged before, but it was a lot of fun!

I am the girl who wears mixed matched socks, all the time. I’m the girl who would rather wear socks than go barefoot- even when she sleeps. I am the girl who grew up on Andy Griffith and I Love Lucy reruns. I am the girl who is a complete cat person. Cats are the best pets ever. I am the girl who grew up playing with miniature American Girl dolls instead of Barbies. I am the girl who, as a child, divided up her… Read more »

So, I turned 19 on Sunday. And at some point that day it hit me that I only have one more year as a teenager. Around Pinterest I’ve seen some other people have created a “Thirty Before Thirty” bucket list for themselves. I rather like that idea. However, since I’m not in my twenty’s yet, I thought I would create a “Twenty Before Twenty” list. And, considering I only have one year to complete these tasks, I thought of practical-… Read more »
Silly is better than serious because… 1. Silly is better than serious because sometimes your parents want you to take a “cute-Easter-Sunday-picture” with your brother, but you really don’t feel like taking a normal picture. 2. Silly is better than serious because sometimes you and your friends want to lean dramatically from a lamp post…at night…after a movie… 3. Silly is better than serious because sometimes you just feel like dressing up like sailors and making the bathtub be a boat…. Read more »
