Last weekend we had a "big" date night. My husband is a huge fan of The Phantom of the Opera. He's seen it multiple times in different locations, so he was excited to hear the tour was coming to our town! I beat him to the punch and surprised him with tickets for his Christmas gift.… Continue reading Date Night at the Opera

Happy Memorial Day!
Happy Memorial Day! I believe Americans live in the greatest country on the Earth. It is truly a privilege to enjoy the wealth and freedom of this nation - but that privilege has come at great sacrifice. On Memorial Day we pause to honor the brave men and women who have given their lives for our… Continue reading Happy Memorial Day!
High Five For Friday!
Happy Friday! This week the weather in South Carolina decided it was finally time for some summer temperatures. It was a warm week, but per my usual I spent most of it inside! 🙂 So from the comfort of my AC, here are my Friday Fives! 1. One of my favorite summer perks is the… Continue reading High Five For Friday!
My Cozy Drop Space
I love having a place right inside the door where we can drop our keys, mail and sunglasses as soon as we enter the house. Hence the name, "drop space." I created this cozy area next to the carport door and I'm in love with it! The light from the lamp really warms up… Continue reading My Cozy Drop Space
How to Clean Makeup Brushes
Once every few months, I like to take everything out of my makeup container and clean the contents - especially my makeup brushes. It makes such a difference and I'm always glad I did it.

You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the… Continue reading The Comfort of God’s Word
How to Pack For Vacation (and not forget anything!)
We've all been there. You're halfway to the beach, and suddenly panic grips your heart. Did I pack my bathing suit?!! There's nothing like spending your vacation wearing an ill-fitting $19.98 bathing suit from Walmart when your perfect makes-me-look-skinnier-than-I-am bathing suit is back at home. I've certainly been known to forget things when travelling. Growing up,… Continue reading How to Pack For Vacation (and not forget anything!)
High Five For Friday!
Another week, another set of high fives! Here they come... 1. My sister's wedding was a fabulous event! I loved being with family and friends, as well as spending a few days in the hills of East Tennessee. Such a great time! 2. Earlier this week I got to spend some time with the "Golden Agers"… Continue reading High Five For Friday!
Turkey Meatloaf
I've been cooking with ground turkey a lot in the past several months. Right now, I can get it for almost a dollar a pound less than I can get ground beef! I've found that it's a pretty good substitute for beef in things like tacos, chili and spaghetti. My husband is a huge fan… Continue reading Turkey Meatloaf
