I finally figured out how to retrieve my iPhone pics without having to actually find a plug and hook my phone up to my computer, and then move my pictures over to my computer and then move them to where I want them to go. Okay, I sorta knew how to do it, but I hadn’t actually done it. But… Read More
Sunday Snapshot: {Third Day}
Had an absolute blast last night. Aimee, Mac Powell’s wife, and I got a chance to meet up at the Created4Care conference in March. And she graciously – and amazingly generously – offered to hook our entire crew up with tickets to the Third Day show in Raleigh. For our family, getting a chance to go to this concert was… Read More
joy
I was so very excited to get this back. My most favorite piece of jewelry. Heck, one of my most favorite things… period. But I was also incredibly nervous. When I received the new charm for my necklace for my birthday last year, I knew it would include the name of our newest little bug, Miss Tallula. But I wasn’t… Read More
a Christmas tradition
I want to share with y’all a Christmas tradition we have around here. Well, I guess not so much a tradition in the literal sense. Because some years I’m just too darned lazy busy to make it. But every time I do make this confectionery delight, I am so. stinkin’. glad. I did. Meet Ellie’s Caramels. So named for the… Read More
a few of my favorite things
I like a lot of things. But there are very few that I love. And, especially at this gift-buying time of year, I can’t get enough of hearing what other folks love, too. In fact, I could be possibly referred to as a review freak… I am much more interested in others’ reviews of an item than what the actual… Read More
just fyi
I thought I’d share what you could win in the Share the Love giveaway. This beauty happens to be mine. All mine. I’ve had it for almost 3 years – received it as a gift for my 40th birthday – and I’ve worn it most days since. Over the years, I’ve had quite a few folks stop me and ask… Read More
inspired
I told her I’d do this because I owe her one for sharing weekly on No Hands But Ours. Actually, I owe her a whole lot more than one, because she’s been rockin’ out some great Whatever Wednesday posts over at NHBO for a loooong time. She never asks for anything in return and now that she has, how could… Read More
a shout out
…to my friend Jessica. She has got some crazy skillz. And she created an outrageous bunch of presets for Lightroom. For jpg picture-takers, like myself. And this Triple Set? It rocks. Why, exactly, am I talking about jpg pictures and post-processing today? Because my sister left. And took her precious kiddos with her. I am in denial. Soooo, to cope… Read More
help me. not really.
Wow. It’s here. And I can’t take my eyes off of it. I am not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing, but for now I’m completely smitten. I so wish you guys could have been here with me when I opened it up. You, however, might be thanking the Good Lord that you were not… Read More
hurry up FedEx man
I finally bit the bullet. And bought it. The thing that my husband wanted to give me for Mother’s Day. And has continued to insist that I buy pretty much every day since. It should arrive today. I don’t know whether to laugh at how ridiculously excited I am. Or cry because it’s so ‘spensy. Or both. Once I’ve got… Read More
