Baby time is quickly approaching, and I am more than ready to meet my little guy. He’s due to arrive in one week, but the anticipation that goes along with the fact that he could arrive any day is driving me crazy. I just can’t wait to see him and start our life as a … Continue reading »
Favorite Peach Pie
I couldn’t let the summer continue any further without telling everyone about the peach pie I made last month. One day Brian went to Porter, Oklahoma and picked up a bunch of the best peaches I had ever tasted. They were sweet and wonderful and I couldn’t stop just eating them every day.

Two apps that I love and have changed my life
Recently I started reading the Bible in Chronological order using the Chronological plan on YouVersion. If you haven’t ever read the Bible but you’ve always wanted to, I highly recommend doing it in chronological order. So far I’ve really enjoyed it even though I haven’t gotten very far yet. It’s kind of strange how it … Continue reading »

If I had asked myself 10 years ago what I would be best at as I approached 30 I would never have said that fundraising, marketing, or event planning would have been anywhere near the top of the list. Back as I was graduating from high school I thought I was going to work in … Continue reading »

Dear Courtney,

Home-made Vanilla Ice Cream that doesn’t taste home-made
Growing up, I was always the boring kid who only liked vanilla ice cream. I don’t think it was necessarily that I disliked the other flavors as much as it was that I just loved vanilla, and I didn’t see any reason to eat any other kind. I had a friend who gave me such … Continue reading »
Deep Dish Peach Pie with Streusel Topping
This year has been a slow year for the blog, and I’m really sorry about that. I hope that in the months to come I can remember to take pictures of the food I make and tell everyone about it, but it’s been hard. My job got busier (but I love it), and my dog … Continue reading »
