Mitchel and I have been together for 8 and a half years. That is CRAZY to me. We started dating in October 2010, as freshmen in college. Our relationship was just plain fun. We did fun things on campus together and I thought he was hilarious. Random trips to Krispy Kreme in Greenville at 9pm […]

A few months ago when we found out Mitchel’s dad was going to be in Italy again for work, I knew then, I really wanted to go! I wasn’t sure if it would work out because we weren’t sure how long Charlie would be in Italy. And, Mitchel came to Italy about 12 years ago […]

Let’s be honest for a minute, we are pretty private people. If it were up to us, we would spend just about every evening in our homes, by ourselves. The problem is, we know that it isn’t good for us, our social skills, our spiritual lives, or even our marriage.

Marriage, Personal

2018 was my year of podcasts and audiobooks, as a way to supplement my lack of desire for reading. I have discovered my love for podcasts because they are a great way to learn and grow. But in 2019, I’ve decided to read a book a month. (Which may not seem like a lot to my husband who read almost 50 books last year), but it’s a big deal for me.

Christmas time is here! Tomorrow is the big day, when all of us wake up (sometimes early in the morning – sometimes not so early) and we start opening up all the wrapping and bows which took wayyyy too long to fix.
