Today is the day of sharing my surprise! Our family loves pets and we have quite a few! An English shepherd, a black lab/collie pup, three outside tabby cats, a cute black rabbit, and a spoiled indoor kitty named Dewey. The thing is, all of these pets belong to other members of my family. Of… Continue reading Never in my wildest dreams… 😴 🥳

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi, everyone! I know this post is several days late but honestly, I was just enjoying the holiday and long weekend and wasn't thinking about posting at all. Our Thanksgiving was nice and quiet.

Hey, Looks Aren’t Everything!

10 Jan 2020 Laura G.

She scrolled through the fifth blog she had looked at that day. Cute pics, catchy post titles, amazing graphics...again. Why did everyone else’s site look more professional? More epic? Discontent pricked at her heart as she longed to have a website that looked breathtaking! She wanted people to be blown away whenever they explored her… Continue reading Hey, Looks Aren’t Everything!

Snow!

25 Jan 2019 Laura G.

Last weekend, we got nine inches of snow! It was beautiful! Although it was fun to see, the snow came along with lots of slippy road conditions. Our Church services were cancelled on Sunday, leaving us at home. Sunday morning was nice. Our family enjoyed sitting in the living room with cups of something warm… Continue reading Snow!
