I told myself that 2026 would be the year I would I told myself that 2026 would be the year I would get ‘me’ back and I suppose I have been on a mission! ❤️‍🔥

I’ve had this Anberlin tattoo floating around in my brain for yearsss. Finally talked through it with a friend, shared my ideas with @alexandratattoo , and she made them all come to ✨LIFE!✨ Had the best time enjoying several hours of girl talk, good music, and tattoo therapy with her - truly it is therapy and she is the best of the best!!!

I’m not sure I could ever put into words what Anberlin’s music has meant to me over the years. If you feel that way about music in any capacity - you get it. It’s definitely one of those ‘if you know, you know’ things. My Dad was a musician and he certainly passed that feeling down to me. Love that I carry that with me! 

And now I get to carry pieces of my favorite band with me. 🖤🎶
Happy birthday to my SEVEN year old tiny bebe Cohe Happy birthday to my SEVEN year old tiny bebe Cohen! He rolled his eyes at me when I said it’s crazy that he went from 6…to 7! If you know you know. 

Cohen is so sweet, kind, helpful, and smart. He loves building hot wheels tracks, setting up play areas for his little brothers, swimming, NASCAR, baseball, and never sitting still or being quiet… ever. 😆 

I’m so thankful God chose me to be his mom! I love you Cohen!! Happy birthday!!

Our Lovely Trip To Chicago

All of the photos will be up soon, but I really just couldn’t wait to share this video with all of you! I know I’m no pro videographer or anything, but I’m so glad I took enough footage to make something like this. When we went on our honeymoon to Hawaii I hardly thought to take any videos and I really could kick myself for that! We really did have a such a great time and I feel super blessed to be able to remember it through so many pictures and a little video like this!

      Yes, you must make one! It just makes it so much easier to share a piece of what you experienced with other people, I love that!

    Wow that was amazing! How many pictures did you take? Did you make the video clips using your dslr?

    • Stephanie says

      May 12, 2011 at 5:22 am

      Thank you. 🙂 I probably took like 800 pictures or something crazy like that. Haha, but I take a lot "experiment" pictures and forget to delete them so I end up with about half of that. 😉 And yes I used my DSLR.

    Ha, I was gonna say the same thing as Rachie, please make videos of all my trips from now on?!

    And Chicago is such a great song, love it.

    This video was great and a great idea – what did you use to make it? Was it hard? Can I learn?

    […] If you follow me on Pinterest, you may have been wondering what my new obsession with San Francisco is all about – now you know! Nate and I took a little trip (to Chicago) last May and decided that we wanted this to be a yearly tradition. We talked about going a few different places but we settled on San Francisco as a better option than New York and the other bigger cities that we want to visit based on the fact that we only have a three day weekend. I’ve been putting together all kinds of lists of places I want to go. AH, I can’t wait! I’m so excited to make another video like this one. […]
