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!!

I have the MOST FUN any time I’m in front of Michelle’s camera. She is so fun to hang out with and it ends up being the best girl time + hair and makeup! Y’all know I have 4 kids and I work from home.. I don’t get to feel fancy very often! If you like laughing until your cheeks hurt (your face cheeks) and feeling 🔥 - book a shoot with her! 10/10 highly recommend.

Thank goodness for spring. 🌸 2026 has been kin Thank goodness for spring. 🌸

2026 has been kind of a weird, wild ride so far, but full of good things. I started a new job! And that has taken up a lot of my time (in a good way), so I’ve been a little bit quiet around here.

I’m trying as hard as I can to prioritize myself more these days. Finally went to the doctor and did some blood work. Turns out, I’m severely anemic. I’m hoping I’ll start feeling better and little more awake after I start my iron. 😅 Maybe I can lay off the coffee a little bit. (J/k)

I can’t believe it’s almost April after we went through 3 years of January, but I’m not mad about it! Ready to relax outside on patios with family/friends and enjoy our kiddos running around. We made it. 🖤

And he said this to his social media loving picture taking wife who is finally feeling the sunlight on her face after months of seasonal depression. 🤪 Might just turn this into a Nate appreciation account. Stay tuned.😉

A Cold Monday

I woke up this morning, and it was cold. It was cold in my house, and I checked the temperature outside and it was COLD there too. Okay so, “cold” was about 55 outside… but with a dreary grey sky and drizzly rain- yeah. I put on some leggings, a long sleeve shirt, and slipped into my knock-off Uggs for the first time since last February/March? It felt kind of good. But then, I got to work and realized how out of whack the air conditioning was due to the temperature outside. Luckily I work a job where I can sit in my chair wrapped up in a blanket and not move much- and that is exactly what I did.

Nate and I finally went to the store tonight. Our kitchen and refrigerator were starting to look pretty bare and we pretty much groaned to each other about how hungry we were all weekend. Right after we got married grocery shopping seemed fun and exciting, along with cooking. And lately we’ve kind of fallen into a rut! Hah. But we’ve been better about eating healthier foods- with the exception of tonight’s Kroger Buffalo Chicken dinner- so I can’t be mad at us. ;] My new favorite breakfast = Kashi Go Lean Crunch with fresh raspberries! I’m also obsessed with orange juice. Speaking of healthy– I think I will start a Wednesday blogging segment called, “Wii Fit Wednesday”. Be on the look out for what that entails! And if you have a Wii Fit that you use often or want to start using often (like me) leave a comment and let me know, because maybe this could some how be an interactive thing with other bloggers!

My mind is all over the place, so I think it’s time for bed. Mondays and Tuesdays are long days at work- the fact that I’m blogging at all is amazing!

    That's how I felt Sunday night, I was sitting in front of the TV with the windows open and suddenly, I thought…I need a sweatshirt…and a quilt! And to close the windows.

    I also went to the grocery store to stock up on healthy stuff, it always makes me feel so good. I got in periods of OK eating to periods of good healthy eating. Trying to keep it up!

    I need to use my wii fit more often, so I’d be interested to hear your idea. 🙂

    It’s usually cold where I live, but we’ve been having some nice weather lately. I know all about huddling in a blanket trying to stay warm, even though the air conditioner is on. Why do they do that?
