A long while. We had great intentions with this website and life happened and we are so grateful. Since the last time we entered anything on this website Kacey has grown and birthed a beautiful baby girl, we had our second women's conference, and our first gathering night #ForReal along with many other wonderful personal and conference-y (that's a word, right?) events. So, yes, we are still here typing away with kids in the background playing Hulk and Spider man (hi, it's Emily) and thinking of the ladies we will reach this year through the gift God has given us with the conference and Christian Life Church bringing us on board for their women's ministry. It's new, it's still taking shape, and we are all learning so much as we go through this journey to <b>encourage</b> you, to <b>equip</b> you, to <b>gather</b> the ladies in our community together, and to <b>mobilize </b>you to get out there and be His hands and feet. We are in the trenches with you and couldn't be more thankful for the support each of you have shown us as you share our Facebook page, tag friends to let them know about the conference, and volunteer your time so women can be filled to the brim and we can all pour out His great love all over our community.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Stick around, friends. We have another great year planned for you and will bring more information as we get it. <div>

On one hand I love the freshness that a NEW year brings - like somehow all that happened in the year before can get magically erased away, all the yuk anyways, let's keep the good. At the same time the newness offers some sort of relief, it can also bring with it this pressure to CHANGE or IMPROVE…and with that I sound a profound *SIGH* of dread. Don't get me wrong, motivation is good, making a positive change is great but as I stand in the grocery line magazine covers <i>assault </i>my very being. I mean, seriously, am I supposed to give up pizza, get in ridiculous shape by working out 5,026.25 minutes a week, completely organize my house, AND buy new linens all in the same month? <b>Um, NO</b>. Just NO. So I check my momentary panicked crazy while I check out with my groceries and start to thank God that he loves me perfectly in all of my very imperfectness. Whew. Meltdown averted.<br />
<br />
With this fresh new year of 2015, I just want to encourage you a little. When you start to feel tempted to measure yourself against the trumped up version of what the world says is important during this month, or measure yourself against what someone else is doing, let's get a little perspective…<b>God made you UNIQUELY you.</b> You're not going to be in the same season as everyone around you all of the time and that's good. Although we won't always be in the same place as everyone around us, we do need to be honest with ourselves and assess where we are and where we are headed. Let's face it, no matter what happens today - time is going to pass. Each day is going to turn into the next until its 2016 - so we should make the most of the time we have and be intentional. We need to challenge one another, build each other up, but all in a positive way and <u>ALL for God's glory</u> - <b>not out our own</b>. And not only at the beginning of a new year but at the start of each new day. Do you need to make a change? Do you need to reassess your prayer life, your health, your finances, your time management? Maybe you do need to make some changes….but you know what? You won't know unless you get before The Lord, get HONEST and LISTEN.<br />
<br />
So friends, seek Him first….<br />
<br />

By God's grace and mercy alone everything will fall into place as you keep your eyes fixed on the only One who truly matters. In this new year, my prayer is that you see yourself the way God sees you - not defined by your circumstance, your past, your mistakes - or even all of your achievements - but with a love that is immeasurable by our own human standards, and with a grace that drowns every earthly imperfection, and with a mercy that redeems and sets you free not with the start of each new year but with the start of each new second if that is where you are. Friend, you are loved perfectly by a God who knows nothing other than holy perfectness and you are HIS.<br />

We appreciate Evie's talent so much and really value the ways she has helped and supported our mission - so, we figured we should share her with the rest of you….

It really is a small world! I can get a real sense of a family dynamic just by watching them interact together and that’s probably my most enjoyable thing is to capture a connection or feeling in a moment.</span><br data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$7:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /><br data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$9:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /><span data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$10:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>Family photos require coordinating which stresses Moms out - any tips to make this easier?</b></span></span><br />

Pintrest can be a great inspiration for finding clothing options, clients can adapt what they find and like to include things they already have on hand. Family photography has changed and everyone doesn’t need to be matching! Choose a color scheme, go to the closets and coordinate colors! Accessorizing is a great way to throw in coordinating colors too! </span><br data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$13:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /><span data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$14:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">One big thing is just to RELAX and be yourself!! If mom is stressed, the kids can usually sense that and be a little on edge too. I try to talk and get to know everyone a little before we start shooting to help ease those jitters. Kids will be silly and usually always unpredictable but thats what I love and the best images can come when they feel comfortable enough to be themselves in front of the camera. <span class="emoticon emoticon_wink" style="background-image: url(https://fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net/rsrc.php/v2/y7/r/I2KDOKxP-hB.png); background-position: 0px -8075px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; background-size: auto; display: inline-block; height: 16px; vertical-align: middle; width: 16px;" title=";)"></span> </span><br data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$15:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /><br data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$17:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /><span data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$18:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>We have a wonderful city with gorgeous backdrops all over town which you take great advantage of.

There are many other places that come to mind but I have been there and seeing all the endless beauty it has to offer really left an impact on me! The beaches, mountains, jungles, cities and so much more certainly offers so many inspiring places for photo shoots! I don’t think I could ever get bored there!!</span><br data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$21:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /><br data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$23:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /><span data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$24:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>You know we are Southern gals, so you have to give us your favorite southern saying.</b> </span><br data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$25:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;" /><span data-reactid=".2s.$mid=11414518590624=2a7887ee97106b0b277.2:0.0.0.0.0.0.$end:0:$26:0" style="color: #3e454c; line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span></span><br />

<span style="color: #3e454c; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 15px; white-space: pre-wrap;">We had a lot of fun shooting with Evie and she did a great job drawing the kids in, keeping things relaxed and capturing real life. I don't know about you, but for me, that's a pretty awesome combo. As a photographer myself, I (Kacey) really appreciate that Evie was able to capture <i>us</i> - not the super posed us, but the real us. I can look at these photos years from now and know that we had a good time that day.

Around this same time last year The Lord started working on Emily and I, both in different ways and we had NO IDEA. See, Emily and I only knew one another through social media and we had never met in person. Then one day I get an invite to a <a href="http://www.noondaycollection.com/">Noonday Collection</a> Trunk Show at Emily's house. Fine, fine, I'll admit it - I was going to check out the jewelry, but also to check out sister's house in person. I knew she had great style so, I couldn't pass this sneak peek up. ;) We bonded over jewelry and quickly learned we both shared a love for community - locally and world wide, connecting with people, and shopping with companies who inspire and give back. Little did I know that what I thought was just a fun night with mutual friends would be the start of a new friendship between Emily & I. On our <b>first</b> lunch out, we decided to start our sweet girl Oh Magnolia AND start working on a women's conference we felt our community so badly needed. You know, because that is TOTALLY normal. The conversation went something like this:<br />
<br />
Emily: "Nice to see you!"<br />
Me: "You too."<br />
Emily: "What are you planning on doing in 2014?"<br />
Me: "I have no idea but….."<br />
Emily: "But what?"<br />
Me: "You're gonna look at me like I have three heads but The Lord has been giving me ideas for a women's conference."<br />
Emily: "Well, you're gonna think I'm crazy too because I think we should start a blog and put on a women's conference."<br />
Me: "OK, let's do it. Does this place have Pesto?"<br />
<br />
The rest is history…<br />
<br />
Fast forward a few months and we were in official planning stages of the first CALLED Women's Conference.<br />
<br />
I think sometimes in our instant gratification culture, we fail to see the small things that lead up to the big things. Whatever is "big" in your story, whatever that means to you. It wasn't one BIG thing that happened to allow us to serve our community with a Women's Conference. It was a lot of little, teeny, tiny baby steps that led up to it finally coming to fruition. It took Emily & I saying "yes,"it took the support of our church <a href="http://www.clctn.org/">Christian Life</a>, it took rallying the support of local business owners, it took friends who were willing to volunteer. But you know what? The more we said "yes," the more God opened doors we didn't even expect until Saturday, September 27th arrived and that was that. The day we had been working toward was finally here.<br />
<br />
Do you know what I loved most about that day? We had SO MANY different denominations represented in that room where approximately 350 women were. We laughed together, we may have shed a few tears together, and we laid down our hardships in front of the Cross together. How AMAZING would it be if every day, we as Believers, focused on the love we have for Jesus and the Kingdom instead of getting caught up in where we see things differently? How much more could we advance the Kingdom? If we all did our little part?<br />

This September I will have lived in our fabulous home 8 years and when I stop to think of all the things that have changed - furniture and the furniture arrangements, paint colors (no more builder's beige!), the pictures on the walls, etc. - it's actually pretty darn accurate with the seasons of life that we have been through together. You see, we never planned on being here more than 3-5 years. This 2000 square foot house on an acre lot at the end of a cul de sac was a "starter home" in our eyes because at 23 and 25 when we got married and the real estate market was booming all we saw was bigger and better. Now, at 31 and 33 and with a 2 year old son, we see simple and together. But, to be honest, the last few weeks I have had some major issues with contentment and was reverting back to my "bigger and better" days. Days I don't particularly love to revisit.<br />
<br />
Just in case you read that last paragraph and thought about what a selfish brat I am to even think of moving, let me explain. 2000 square feet for 3 people is not small and I know many of you dream about that size home. I will admit that moving into this house as a 23 year old newlywed was quite a bit for me to handle. I came from living paycheck to paycheck with not much budge room and as a very young bride who saw money and things everywhere I looked, I ended up putting very unrealistic expectations on myself and my husband of how I thought our home should look and how we should be living while we were here. I allowed this home and our things to define me...<i>(that is not an easy sentence to type). </i><b>And boy, did we pay for it</b>. And while that is a whole other time and story that I am not going to go into detail about in this post, just know that, sadly, this is not my first time to deal with not being content.<br />
<br />
My husband is a kick butt real estate agent and has been for over 12 years. He has a gift of helping others along with the confidence and knowledge to get the job done. I joined him and my father in law last year in the office 2 days a week to help and really enjoy watching him at work. But with this has also come the plethora of beautiful houses - huge bonus rooms with bathrooms upstairs, walk in pantries, kitchens that may make me want to cook every meal and can fit a beautiful farm table, and a blank slate of all.the.things. I could do to make this house a home that would make us oh so happy! (right? right?!). Before I knew it I began convincing myself that I have looked at these walls for too long, that I wanted a kitchen where I can fit my dream table, I wanted a bathroom upstairs so we can use it as a guest room and not a storage unit like it seems it is now, and well, maybe even a sunroom! I want, I want, I want. But my real issue? It's obvious that I was not content. And I was certainly not being a good steward of what I DO have. facepalm.<br />

Last week when I finished the book The Nesting Place by <a href="http://www.thenester.com/" target="_blank">The Nester</a> my attitude was changed. The last chapter was titled "contentment" and couldn't have come at a better time. Funny thing is I started the book weeks ago and then put it down and started my most recent "not content/miserable in this house" journey only to pick it back up to this very chapter:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Well, shoot. If that didn't get me in the gut. Lord, you know just what I need and when I need it, don't you?<br />
<br />
I can honestly say that with fresh eyes I looked at this last chapter and even went back to read some parts again. I was again reminded that life isn't going to be perfect when I move into a bigger or different home. The world won't be all sunshine and lollipops when I get to look out new windows every day, or open said windows to hear the birds chirping and nothing else. Moving to the country where it's quiet won't make me happy, moving into the city to be closer to all the fun kid things won't make me a better mama, moving into a different neighborhood won't solve my problems of not being social enough with others, and moving into a new home won't make me want to entertain more. I need to do these things now, where I am, with what I have. If I need to ask God to open doors and to make me brave to do the things I need to do, then so be it. I will do them with a joyful and thankful heart.<br />

With the encouragement from these pages I stopped to take inventory of what things would honestly make the next couple of years that we have left in this house feel like a fresh slate. We are long overdue for a paint job - so we will paint. I may even go wild and add gold polka dots in the laundry room because, why not?! I rearranged the living room furniture and it now feels much cozier. I made a huge gallery wall above the couch where I will hang more family pictures and Finley's artwork because that is what I enjoy seeing each day. And no, there won't be a huge sunroom or a walk in pantry or a bathroom upstairs. <i>But, I also won't be wasting my time wanting for more while my life is happening right in front of me. </i></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
NOTE : I wrote this entry about a month or so ago and I hesitated for a long time to post it. Then <a href="http://momastery.com/blog/2014/08/11/give-liberty-give-debt/" target="_blank">THIS</a> wonderful blog came out that I loved and can't help but share with you because I needed it oh so badly. It was so timely because a couple of weeks ago (at the last minute) I decided to open the doors of my home to women and their children to look at the wonderful <a href="http://summerbranch.noondaycollection.com/" target="_blank">Noonday collection</a> for this fall and winter. Toys and kids were everywhere, food was plenty, women were gathering together, and we were in full blown community. And I loved every minute of it. I NEEDED it. To have the rooms filled with love while we supported women all over the world who worked so hard on the jewelry displayed and while I had the chance to support my friends who have taken bold steps to provide for their family through<a href="http://www.matildajaneclothing.com/" target="_blank"> Matilda Jane</a> and <a href="http://erindorn.noondaycollection.com/" target="_blank">Noonday</a> it was clear to me what my heart was missing along with my struggles above. And that was COMMUNITY. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I still have plans to freshen up a few things (and say goodbye to things that we no longer find useful so that others can enjoy them) and then throw the doors back open for baby showers, birthday dinners, and playdates. I am doing my best to be intentional about having a thankful heart for the food in the fridge and cabinets, for the ability to have a home where we are all safe and can pray together each night to the God that gives us each other, and to remind myself daily that this home is our gift from Him to use for His glory. I will take my eyes off of what I don't have and put them back on what I do have and what HE has given me to help others. Because, that is where I will find contentment. </div>

People.<span style="font-size: large;"> </span>Sometimes, they test you. They test me - my limits, my patience, my tolerance. Yet, LOVE has been an overwhelming theme for me lately, in my family, with my friends, with my church. Love has met me in most conversations and when I am being irritated or feeling challenged - love - is what comes to mind, like a sword of defense to every negative thought. God is doing a work in me.<br />
<br />
In the last year I have walked through a couple of very difficult situations. At one point, like some I imagine, I asked God "<b>why?</b>" WHY? I couldn't even articulate beyond this simple three letter word. When hard times hit - no matter the situation - don't we all wonder that on some level? I asked God this question with a heart searching for wisdom, direction, and understanding. And I had to keep asking… I didn't get any immediate answers. <b>I had to keep asking - keep seeking - keep OBEYING</b>.<br />
<br />
It's been a little over a year since I began asking my simple one word question and just now has He given me a glimpse of understanding and I wanted to share it with you in hopes it may encourage you in whatever you may be facing….<br />
<br />
Through the <b>sadness,</b> He has taught me to <b>communicate</b> and to <b>trust in Him</b>. Through the <b>hurt</b>, He has <b>shown me compassion</b>. Through the <b>struggle</b>, He has given me a <b>desire to help</b> advance the Kingdom through women <b><i><u>like never before</u></i></b>.<br />
<br />
Before the walk of this year, I was comfortable. Knowing what I know, doing what I do, pressing in how I press in, serving how I serve. Was I doing anything wrong? Bad? No. BUT God was able to take circumstances that I wish were different, and grow me in ways I couldn't have done before. In ways I cannot deny or be distracted from. I know my place in the Body of Christ is to serve women and I was doing that. But now, I have a desire on my heart <i><b>like never before</b></i> to help women discover the transforming Power of Jesus. Through these trials I've been <b>strengthened</b>.<br />

<br />
We are excited to announce that we will be hosting, along with our home church <a href="http://www.clctn.org/">Christian Life</a> and local community sponsors, the <i><b>Called</b></i> Women's Conference!<br />
<br />
Now, we know the word "Conference" is the type of word that (let's be honest) can leave you desiring a little more…so let us challenge you to not think conference, but think CONNECTING, COMMUNITY, ENCOURAGEMENT and EQUIPPING. We have been burdened for quite some time to put together an event that will encourage and equip women of all ages to walk fully in their salvation so that they/we can LIVE OUT their/our God given CALLING.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>"He called you out of darkness into His beautiful light." </i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>1 Peter 2:9 </i></b></div>
<br />
<br />
Author <a href="http://preorder.anniedowns.com/">Annie F. Downs</a> is going to be one of our wonderful speakers. She will remind us all that we are all made on purpose and that we are made to be BRAVE by our Heavenly Father. How encouraging is THAT?! We will also have Christy Sanford from <a href="http://www.greenhousemin.org/" target="_blank">Greenhouse Ministries</a> and <a href="http://branchesrecoverycenter.com/our-counselors/" target="_blank">Debi Russell from Branches Recovery Center</a> speak about our callings and how to live fully in the salvation given to us from our wonderful maker.<br />
<br />
We are beyond excited to be able to offer an event that is focused on women as a whole - whether you're a college student, a mom, a wife, a grandma, or all of the above - this event is for YOU!<br />
<br />

When someone in the family is the one holding it all together, being the peacemaker, making things work despite the circumstances - they are the <b>gorilla glue</b>. B & I look at each other and just say those two words and call it out. It's a compliment, I promise. Although, it may not always feel like it…<br />
<br />
As Mamas, I think that especially during the Summer months our gorilla glue abilities are seriously tested. I can at least say for myself I know this is true, and if I'm not careful, all I will remember about this Summer is how many times I refereed my children, how many times I had to ask them to stop "Mommying me to death," how I may have let a friend down, hurt a family member's feelings, how there's simply just NOT ENOUGH OF ME to keep a house clean with five tornadoes living here….I mean the list could go on. I wonder, do you ever let yourself feel like this too? If so, I have <b>earth shattering news…</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There <b>isn't</b> enough of you to go around, you're <b>not strong enough</b> to handle everyone's problems, and here's the catcher - <b><i>you aren't meant to be</i></b>. Jesus said <span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." In Matthew 11:28 Jesus is giving us a direct command - He is telling us again to seek Him, to give Him our burdens and he will give us REST. Can we all all do a collective *SIGH* of </span></span></span></span><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">relief? Thank you Jesus! </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">When I find myself overwhelmed and feeling like I'm letting everyone down, I have to do an honest assessment of how I've been handling the days. Usually, its my own fault - I've taken everything from the day IN but not let anything OUT. I've not GIVEN any of it OUT <b>to Him</b>. </span></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: #001320;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="color: #666666; font-size: x-small;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">Image: <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/search/pins/?q=psalm%2055%3A22">Pinterest</a></span></span></span></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; line-height: 20px;">The Psalm 55:22 continues that The Lord will "not let the righteous be shaken." When I find myself shaken - I have to check myself and turn to Him. After all, I am not the answer, </span><b>He is</b>.<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"> I don't know it all, but <b>He does</b>. I am not strong enough, but <b>He will sustain me</b>. I cannot fix anything for anyone, but <b>He can</b>. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">So what are we to do? When we feel like we ARE the gorilla glue for so many? I think it all boils down to knowing what our job is vs. what God's job is. It is our job to steward our position - as wife, Mama, friend, etc. But it is not our job to take on ALL of the burden and try to strive in our own strength. When we are stewarding our position well, we must always seek Him for wisdom, direction, strength and - sometimes the hardest for me - REALLY CAST - LET GO of the burden and trust that The Lord is working out all of the details for our loved ones. Whether it's your children bickering, a friend's struggle, or a situation you just don't understand...Our job is simply to be present for those we love. God's job is to handle it/fix it <i><b>according to His divine plan </b>(not my plan, your plan, only HIS plan)</i>. Whatever "it" may be.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">Remember that Jesus said this my friend:</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">"I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. <i>I came that they may have life and have it <b>abundantly</b></i>." John 10:9-10 ESV <span style="font-size: x-small;">(Emphasis mine)</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="line-height: 20px;">Jesus came and died for us so that we, as believers, may have LIFE and have it ABUNDANTLY. Not half heartedly, bound up, stressed, and burdened - that is the thief's work in our life. Don't forget to remind yourself and your loved ones that we have authority and power in the name of King Jesus to live life SAVED, SET FREE, and LIVING in fruit bearing ABUNDANCE…and that's true for the gorilla glue and all. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Believe all ogre again! Based on the Oscar-winning DreamWorks film is the hilarious story of everyone’s favorite ogre brought to life on stage. In a faraway kingdom turned upside down, things get ugly when an unseemly ogre — not a handsome prince — shows up to rescue a feisty princess. Throw in a donkey who won’t shut up, a bad guy with a SHORT temper, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you’ve got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there’s one on hand…and his name is Shrek. </span><br />

I hope you all enjoy your weekend!<br />
Get out and do something fun and different - maybe even be spontaneous (as I am telling myself to do the same...) - we live in a great area with plenty of options to do just that!<br />

I have 16 summers left with my son at home (Lord willing) and if they are anything like the past 2 they will fly by. I know it's hot, I know you are tired, I know you get tired of playing referee sometimes but let's put that to the side and make some memories this weekend with family (and maybe if you play hard enough you will get a nap!). If you don't have kids, grab your significant other and/or your friends or do something fun by yourself. However you choose to spend the time - make the most of your summer weekend. "The days are long but the years are short" is a bittersweet truth that is always a great reminder for me :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There are plenty of options here in Middle Tennessee for some summer fun so check out the five that I picked :</span><br />

It's a constant battle when excess is everywhere and kids in 3rd grade have their own iPhones and iPads and mine…well, they don't. Now, I hold no judgement for those of you who may be in that group with littles and electronics, mine are not deprived, they just have to share with me & B. From a young age I've taught them that there are people in this world who are less fortunate, that we should appreciate what and <i><span style="font-size: large;">who</span></i> we have, that we don't just say "yes ma'am" and "no sir" because we are Southern but because it shows respect and <b>appreciation</b>. And yeeeeeess…..I've been known to talk about the starving children in Africa when everyone is complaining about dinner….or the child in India who has to walk a mile for clean water….Just keeping' it real. Needless to say, it's a constant teaching process and we just use our every day for these lessons. Each day with children provides LOTS of opportunity - can I get an "Amen?" ;)<br />
<br />
When the school year started coming to an end I knew we wanted to do something for each of the kids' teacher as a "Thank You" gift. This year was the first year I had all three children in school. Ryder was in 2nd grade and Lincoln & Ruby Jane went into Kindergarten which was the first time they would be away from me AND each other in separate classrooms. Yea, I was kind of a mess the first week, but that is as long as it lasted because everyone was having <b>so.much.fun!</b> The kids were excited to go every day to see their teachers and friends. Let me tell you, if you don't already, start praying for your child's teachers, pray for your children's behavior. I truly believe PRAYER is what made a world of difference this school year. With every Parent/Teacher conference I had a confirming answer to prayer -whether it was my child's behavior, friend interaction or classroom dynamics. It was AWESOME!<br />
<br />
Recently, I was shown the new line of<a href="http://www.tinyprints.com/shop/mugs.htm"> custom mugs at Tiny Prints</a> and I knew this would be a <b><i>perfect fit </i></b>for what I wanted to do for all of the teachers. I know all of our teachers are coffee/tea drinkers so I was already on a hunt for personalized mugs and Tiny prints had just what I had been searching for! Ya'll know we love great finds around here so with all of the fun designs I just have to share! I was able to select a design that really fit each teacher's aesthetic & personalize each one. Once we received our mugs I took this as a teaching opportunity for the kids, I wanted them to think for themselves of reasons why they appreciate their teacher. What does the teacher do that you like? Is she funny? Is she patient? We wrote down all of the things that we appreciate about the teacher on individual pieces of colorful paper, then folded them up to fill the mug. We then added a little tag to each mug that said "Thank you for filling our cup this year." Our teachers fill our little ones with so much goodness - we wanted to give that back in some small way. Once we were finished we wanted the presentation of the gift to be thoughtful as well. So, I busted out the brown paper - <i><b>the best wrapping option EVER</b></i> - and we got to thinkin'….Ryder's teacher always sent notes home asking for pencils for the class so we laughed about attaching pencils as the bow - and we did! Ruby Jane's teacher always sent notes home on her drawings that were so sweet and encouraging, so RJ drew a picture of her and her teacher. Lincoln's teacher is a sassy teacher who loves sparkle so we used glitter crayons as her decoration. Add a little washi tape (hello, I'm addicted) and twine and there ya go!<br />
<br />
The teachers LOVED everything from the mug to the wrapping paper and really enjoyed the notes of appreciation. Gifts do not have to be expensive to be <i><b>thoughtful and loved</b></i>. My most cherished gifts are the rocks and sticks my sons give me and the drawings my daughter creates. I hope as you're wrapping up your school year, no matter your means of showing your appreciation, you take the time to really love on your child's teacher. I'm sure we can all think of at least one teacher we all loved as a child, their job is not easy, but they give so much in caring for our little ones! <span style="font-size: large;"><i>It takes a village friends!</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">O</span>ur <i>Inspired By</i> pick for this month is the amazing Christy Sanford. Does she look familiar? Well, she should because you've probably seen her running all around town either with her sweet family, or at <a href="http://www.greenhousemin.org/" target="_blank">The Greenhouse</a> or maybe it was at the latest Republican Party event? This lovely lady could run circles around Emily & I both combined which is one of the many reasons we've selected her to introduce you to this month…she's a lady you should <i>want to know</i>. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Personally, for me (Kacey), I admire Christy's ability to juggle her roles and her God given calling. While she is fervently committed to her family - immediate and extended - she also balances her commitment to advancing the Kingdom in her roles at church and also in the community with her position at <a href="http://www.greenhousemin.org/" target="_blank">The Greenhouse </a>and within the political realm. Christy admits that the juggle takes organization but she really makes things look <i>easy</i>, she doesn't sweat the small stuff and like me, she's a "pull up your bootstraps" kinda gal which I can really appreciate. I love that she is so approachable and genuinely loves people - whether you are a homeless Mom or a well established political figure in the community - she treats ALL people with kindness and respect. Christy has the innate ability to make people feel <b>SEEN & HEARD</b> - and that is what inspires me most about this Godly woman. I'm thankful for her in so many ways. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">I (Emily) am inspired by Christy for many reasons but mainly because she's a REAL "what you see is what you get" kinda gal. She speaks life and love to everyone she comes across and you always leave a conversation with her feeling like she was very present - listening and loving on you - and who doesn't admire that?! Christy's life balance is inspirational to me and I admire her honesty that it's not always sunshine and lollipops but it does take work to balance a relationship with God, work, family, extracurricular (for all!) and fun on a daily basis. I am thankful for Christy's willingness to serve in all capacities and shine Christ's light wherever she goes. I absolutely love this lady & I'm so glad you all get the chance to know her better! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">That's <i>our</i> take on Mrs. Sanford, now why don't we go ahead and let you hear from<i> her</i>….</span></div>

<div class="im" style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>1) <u></u>Tell us first what one thing people may not know/or be surprised to learn about you?</b><span style="color: #1f497d;"><u></u><u></u></span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="color: #1f497d;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Many people do not know that I lived in Italy for a year as a nanny and I also taught English. I was there to help set up youth programs for several evangelical churches.</span></span></div>
<div class="im" style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><b>2) What phrase/quote/verse is your go to during hard times?<u></u><u></u></b></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; margin-left: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="color: #1f497d;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I love the verse Romans <span class="aBn" data-term="goog_181595091" style="border-bottom-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); border-bottom-style: dashed; border-bottom-width: 1px; position: relative; top: -2px; z-index: 0;" tabindex="0"><span class="aQJ" style="position: relative; top: 2px; z-index: -1;">8:19</span></span> “All creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed.” This verse reminds me that even creation knows that people all have callings/ gifts that have been given to them. I love watching people discover what those are for them. One of my passions is working with people in this discovery process!</span></span></div>
<div class="im" style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><b>3) Tell us some of your favorite places and/or events in our community.<u></u><u></u></b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; margin-left: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1f497d;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This is a tough one for me since I absolutely love Rutherford County!! Being part of an amazing network of service organizations and non-profits has me spoiled by the cooperation in this county! I love being able to go local events and see people of all socioeconomic levels, race, gender, age mingled in with the public servants and elected officials all enjoying the events together side by side.<u></u><u></u></span></span></div>
<div class="im" style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><b>4) What fills your cup so you can pour life into others?</b><span style="color: #1f497d;"><u></u><u></u></span></span><br />
<div style="color: #500050;">
<br /></div>
<div style="color: #500050;">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: inherit;">I have to have quiet time in the mornings. I have a routine that gets me going each day. I listen to the daily audio bible, which is a reading through the bible each year by a gentleman named Brian Hardin. Then as I get ready and stand in front of my mirror, I have index cards with names of people I pray over each morning. I also ask for grace and wisdom from God, and I ask Him to open my mouth when it needs to be opened and shut it when it needs to be shut. I also love to read, therefore I am constantly reading books that teach, train, and entertain me. I usually have 3 to 4 books going at a time. </span></div>
</div>
<div class="im" style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /><br /><b>5) You have a great husband, four children ranging in age from 9yrs-15yrs old and are very active outside of your day job in church and in the community with The Republican Party - what keeps you on track/motivated/organized?</b><span style="color: #500050;"><u></u><u></u></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; margin-left: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1f497d;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I live by my calendar!!! My husband and I each evening before bed try to go over our schedules for the next day. I will say that my laundry is usually behind and piled high. Our life style is not like most so when we are all 6 at home together, you will more than likely find us playing cards or a board game instead of our chores. I remember my mother saying to me when my first two kiddos were very little “your laundry will be always be there but your kids will not.”<u></u><u></u></span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; margin-left: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; margin-left: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1f497d;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">We try to do things as a family unit, we call ourselves the Sanford 6. One reason is because there are 6 of us. But the main reason is because Drew and I live by Deuteronomy 6:6 -9 where it states to teach your children as you go, as you lie down, etc… This is the philosophy we live by.<u></u><u></u></span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; margin-left: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; margin-left: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1f497d;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">One thing I have been able to do is to assign days for different areas in which I am involved. For example, I have one day that I dedicate to focus on Republican Party, one day to focus on my church leadership activities, and 3 days that I work at Greenhouse Ministries. And of course I keep a few pockets of time for extra fun things that come our way.<u></u><u></u></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">A</span> few months ago I was asked to second shoot a wedding in Memphis. I am the epitome of the reluctant wedding photographer. I really didn't want to do it if I'm just being down right honest, but I didn't say no, instead I was saying yes before I even realized it. I rationalized all the reasons I don't like doing weddings - but kept going back to the fact that it would be a good learning experience. The wedding went well and a learning experience it certainly was…but not in the way I expected.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">I had some down time while I was there so I caught up on the Nehemiah study that <a href="http://www.shereadstruth.com/">She Reads Truth</a> is doing right now. It's awesome ya'll and if you're not currently reading any type of devotion, you really should check theirs out. The current study on Nehemiah is so good….but <a href="http://shereadstruth.com/2014/05/16/and-so-and-so-and-so-and-so-and-you/">one post in particular</a> kept bothering me. Messing with me….Jessi is covering Nehemiah 3:1-32 and encouraging us to pick up our bolts, our beams, and get to building! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Huh?</span> What?<span style="font-size: large;"> </span><i><span style="font-size: large;">I'm not building anything</span> </i>- I love a good DIY but I seriously doubt anything <i>I build</i> is going to be a setting for any miraculous happenings…How does this apply to ME? To YOU? My spray painted dining room chairs aren't going to be a setting for a blind man to be healed…or my little herb garden a place where a crippled man will begin to walk…Or will it? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I had a four hour ride home from Memphis and this question kept bugging me. None of my friends or family would answer the phone, I wasn't feeling any of my music (which is NOT like me) and it was quiet. <b>Very quiet.</b> So I started talking this out with God. {Funny how when no one else was available to talk I finally started talking to the ONLY ONE who could really get this right for me.} As I was talking this through, God in all of His graciousness, set me at ease. The drive from Memphis to Nashville is beautiful, I'm sure not every engineer or construction worker who built the roads between here and there were expecting any holy experiences to happen there as they were building - but on those roads is where God set a lot of things straight for me and I'm thankful.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm not building anything brick by brick, I'm not building a physical altar for anyone to see. But my job, in my place as a woman, wife and as a Mom, <span style="font-size: large;"><b>I am building something</b> </span>for miraculous kingdom-sized work for generations to come. I am setting a firm foundation in my children with the knowledge that The Lord loves them, that God created each of them for a special purpose. With every encouraging word I give them I build their confidence in who they are becoming, who God created them to be, with every kiss, hug, snuggle I am telling them that they are loved and as much as they feel that I love them, God loves them even MORE. With every meal given, clothes washed, chore checked off, discipline given, I am helping to build character and integrity. I have been given three little people to train up - <b><i>to BUILD </i></b>- and what I am able to do will help prepare them for their own kingdom sized work. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In my spray painted dining room chairs is where we talk about our day, build relationships, ask questions about faith and family, in our herb garden is where we talk about how things grow and why God made things, in our front yard is where we play and find joy... So, no, I'm not building anything brick by brick, but I am building something word by word, hug by hug, not only in my family but also with those who God brings into my life. The setting I create in my home and in my relationships is one that God could use for generations to come and the same goes for you my friend. As you're building, here are your instructions - <b>don't get stuck on the "what" you are building instead focus on the "who" you are building. </b>Only God knows what He has prepared for them to do and what we build up in those around us could help give them the confidence to fulfill His purpose and will for their life. That is kind of a big deal. </div>

You're going to get the truth here….the truth about mini vans - what no one will really tell you and maybe an apology. First things first, I need to set some things right with some of you. So...if you have 1 or 2 children and are currently driving a mini van, <span style="font-size: large;">I'm sorry</span>. I was secretly mad at you - you and your family of 3-4, begrudged you for perpetuating the "Soccer Mom" stereotype when you clearly could still be driving a rad sedan or small SUV, I mean, after all, tiny humans can only take up so.much.space. right? I may have even rolled my eyes<span style="font-size: x-small;"> (OK I TOTALLY rolled my eyes)</span> during your excitement of proclaiming you fully embrace your brand new "swagger wagon." I'm sorry but "swagger" was not intended to be used in referring to a MINI VAN. Ever.<br />
<br />
Why the apologies? Why am I calling myself out? Well friends….I have joined your club. I am now a mini van owner. Yes, its true. After months of GRUELING vehicle shopping, the mini van beat out all of its competition - even my super fab Subaru dream car. And I'm not kidding when I say the car shopping was grueling - the entire process was very revealing too. Apparently, I can be <b>blinded</b> by leather and gadgets and completely overlook blatant body damage and rust, I am very awkward when I get stressed out and say awkward things to Sales Reps like<span style="font-size: large;"> "Jesus does not want me driving a mini van."</span> Yes, I really said that. So what happened to change my mind? What lured me to the mini van and made me give it my seal of approval? It's really simple.<br />
<br />
My kids.<br />
<br />
When we test drove a mini van their little faces LIT UP. It didn't matter if it had this or that, what they loved is that they all had their own space, they weren't crammed on top of each other three wide in their booster seats - they could lay claim to their own little spot and it made me realize something….<br />
<br />
This season of life - full of booster seats and school schedules and snack time and bickering and play dates…will all be over in a flash. If I picked my "dream car" over the mini van, I felt like I'd be stealing some joy from my sweet little people and I certainly don't want to rob them of that. Let's be real, I'm not going to be driving a mini-van later in life by choice so this is kind of a one shot deal. We want our kids to be balanced, to not place too much value on material things - but this feels more like an <span style="font-size: large;">experience</span>. The <i>mini van </i>experience if you will...While we know we can't put the responsibility of<i> joy</i> on any earthly things, there are some things that just make life a little easier, a little more fun, a little more manageable. I avoided the mini van successfully for 6 1/2 years, but I'm telling you my friends - if you have more than 1 kid and are vehicle shopping - go for the mini van, just go for it! <span style="font-size: x-small;">(And yes I'm holding firm to the belief that a mini van for 1 kid is overkill unless you run some sort of after school program or something - just sayin'.)</span><br />
<br />
<b>The truth about mini vans</b> is that they are, in fact, absolutely fabulous. Even the Mom or Dad who is a reluctant mini van driver is lying if they say it isn't. If you're in your mini van season, let me <span style="font-size: large;">encourage</span> you - don't begrudge it - don't feel like you're losing some of your swag - because you're not. If you're able to roll around in a mini van - giving your kids that fun experience, focus on that because <span style="font-size: large;">nothing can replace that kind of fun</span>. Finding joy in the everyday small things is what its all about, and if that includes driving a mini van, then bring it on! This season of motherhood is going to go by in a flash and I want to enjoy every morsel of it - mini van and all....<br />

<br />
One last thing, if you're local you know Emily & I like supporting our local businesses, so if you're in the market for a pre-owned vehicle (mini van or not) let me spare you some distress - <b>Joe Ben Arney</b> at <a href="http://www.cityauto.com/">City Auto</a> is AMAZING in Murfreesboro, he will take great care of you! And <b>Jake</b> at <a href="http://www.providenceautogroup.com/">Providence Auto Group</a> in Franklin really ROCKS. I had the BEST experiences at both of these places and its because of these guys. I couldn't recommend them more highly. Providence also has an awesome program where they help families in need of transportation - they are definitely a dealership that likes to give back and worth checking out!<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">O</span>nce my brain started to really work this morning (about 2 hours after we all woke up and my hubby and son left if I am being honest) I started thinking about Mother's Day this Sunday. It is a lovely day isn't it? You know, the picture perfect version where there are bouquets of flowers, gifts, lots of smiles and not a single temper tantrum, long naps for mama and kids, and an overdose of sunshine & lollipops. But since we don't live in that world, we live in the real world, this day may be filled with hurt because of expectations that aren't met, finances that don't bend for gifts, pain for the women who are praying that one day they will finally be a mama, and those who long to talk to the mother they miss so much. In this REAL world, <b><i>sometimes Mother's Day can be HARD</i></b>.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br></span></div>
<br>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Today marks the second year that my Mother In Law will spend mother's day thinking about her own sweet mama's death just a few days before this holiday. It came out of nowhere. We all grieved knowing that she would never meet her grandson who was just a few months old at the time, how the trip she would take to see us all that summer would not happen, and how we just didn't have enough time with her. And that makes Mother's Day hard. If that's you this Mother's Day, longing to pick up the phone and hear your mother's voice, our hearts hurt for you. </span><br>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">On Mother's Day especially I think about the women who may want to bury their heads under the cover and never come out because they have been trying. <i>and trying.</i> <i><b>and trying</b></i> to become a mama and it hasn't happened yet. And today is just a reminder of the baby they so desperately want. We pray with you as you seek Him and wait patiently for His great plan to be unveiled in your life. Your struggle is not ignored.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">For the mamas whose babies live with Jesus, who had to say goodbye far too soon. The pain you have felt on this earth is more than you ever thought you could bear but you take each day as it comes, trusting God to carry you. Your sadness and hurt doesn't go unnoticed. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">To the women who have been rejected by their own mother, who have a hurt that is hard to heal, your pain doesn't go unnoticed. If you think of Mother's Day as a reminder of the hole in your heart that longs for acceptance, nurturing, and redeeming love - take it from a girl whose dad left that hole - stop trying to fill it on your own. The only one who can heal your heart is the best parent who will never let you go. Seek the grace, love, and redemption that only your Heavenly Father can give.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;"><br></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">And to those who are doing this mama thing day in and day out - packing lunches, changing diapers, answering "mama" what feels like 1 million times an hour, and so much more - who so desperately want one day to be simply "perfect". A day with no whining, no fighting, long naps with the spring breeze coming in through the windows, no stains on the new clothes the children put on 5 minutes ago, and every gift mentioned or pinned on our pinterest board nicely wrapped and a handmade gift made with love thrown in for good measure (with someone else taking care of that handmade gift for all the other relatives that need one so we don't have a meltdown) - let go of that expectation. It's only going to disappoint you because, LIFE. It happens. Let today be the day you embrace the imperfect and appreciate that life - like the house, the clothes, the dishes - gets messy. It's up to you to find the joy in it all. </span></div>

Whatever you do, let them know they are loved and that there is HOPE. </span><br>

<br />
I thought since decorating is one of our favorite Spring time activities (or anytime, let's face it) I'd put together a little design board to hopefully inspire you to spruce up your living space. Spring time is full of pops of colors which is why we love it so much. But color everywhere isn't for EVERYONE, so I thought I'd show you how to do a little sprucing up in a more understated way, instead of pops of pink, aqua and orange all in the same room - but don't be fooled, we LOVE that too. Ha!<br />
<br />
Navy has been on my radar for a while now and I think it is a fun neutral that really works with any color. If you're wanting to spruce up an area in your home I would choose one new furniture piece that has a pop of color and build around that - you can even just paint something you currently have. Trust me, spray paint is your friend. Then choose a great patterned accent pillow and pull some other colors from there and blend in classic accents like frames and fresh flowers. Trays are a favorite - I believe everything should be corralled. Things placed separately can look like a hodgepodge but place it all in a tray and suddenly it all works. Remember to have fun - mix metals and wood….if something catches your eye - grab it. As long as YOU love it, it will find a way of working in the space.<br />

I really love gifts that are thoughtful and serve a purpose, either with my every day life or when purchased benefits someone else. This pick below does all of that and then some. This is a great bag that could go everywhere from the grocery to the coffee shop with your laptop or to the beach with snacks. Plus, it is from a really great company:<br />

You can really never go wrong with earrings and when it comes to Mother's Day, right ladies? I like to receive something I would wear a lot because the kids get really excited about that. These are made of up-cycled artillery from Ethiopia. For $34 they are wallet friendly, handmade, and beautiful to boot!<br />

I know this piece isn't an every day wear but you could go the other direction and ask for something you wouldn't typically get for yourself, so when you do wear it it feels really special. This piece is handmade in India and all of the colors makes it work year round. </div>

Minted offers a variety of styles of beautiful stationary. Personally, I'm a journal girl and you can either buy these "as is" or you can personalize them. Personalize them with a name, a special photo, or maybe even a favorite scripture or quote….For $16 you can even afford to buy a bouquet of flowers that triple in price just because they can… ;)</div>

If you're looking for affordable, stylish work out gear you may want to check out <a href="http://www.fabletics.com/">Fabletics</a>. I recently stumbled upon them trying to find some gear for <a href="http://barre11.com/">Barre</a>. If you sign up with them, you can buy your first outfit for $25 - sometimes that includes THREE pieces! Crazy right? Dads - only get your lady work out gear if this is her thing. No Mama needs you t suggest she go work out, but for some of us who are already in to it would really dig this as a gift. And if you're going to guess on size….go for a MEDIUM. MEDIUM will never get you in trouble. Promise. </div>

<i><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When I think of Easter...</span></i><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">Easter is a story of redemption. It's a reminder that my God is <span style="font-size: large;">for</span> <span style="font-size: large;">me</span> and not against me and that He died so that I could be free. While I think this can be viewed by some as a very basic answer let me break it down a little deeper for you.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;">Jesus - who never did any wrong, had committed NO SIN AT ALL, and who was definitely not a criminal who deserved the public torture he received - went to the cross for me, for you, and for those who shouted "kill him!" not long after they were lining the streets for him to walk by and shouting "Hosanna!". That is beyond comprehension for me. He knew what was ahead and yet He still did it. And do you know what that means for me? He took my "stuff" with Him on that cross: </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The best example of love - EVER - will be the sacrifice that He made on the cross. To lay down His life for me. For you. He did it and He conquered the grave - - - - > Let that sink in. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Because of His sacrifice on that cross (His blood) we are healed. He has come to set us FREE. And in our broken places (that we all have, because we are still sinners) He gives us hope, mercy, grace, love, and redeems us from all of our STUFF and makes it beautiful. That, to me, is the story of Easter.</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So I walk out of the darkness and into the light. From fear of shame into the <b>HOPE</b> of life. Mercy called my name and made a way to fly out of the darkness....and into the LIGHT.</span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">...Because when you are hiding all alone your heart can turn into a stone...and that's not the way I want to go. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: red; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There's no place I'd rather be. Your light is marvelous. You have come to set us free. You are marvelous, your light is marvelous to me!" - - - - <span style="font-size: x-small;">Marvelous Light by Ellie Holcomb</span></span></span><br />

I've been planning in my head all of these fun things to do with the kids and then BAM! It's Wednesday and Easter in SUNDAY. Like, THIS SUNDAY! Who knew? My three are really excited about Easter this year. Whether you do Easter bunnies or not, search for eggs or don't, I'm pretty sure we all agree that we want our children to know the true meaning of the holiday.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We've discussed the true meaning of Easter with our children, but I've found that they listen more, and we are able to engage in more conversation about it if we are doing something together. So, I've found a few crafts that would easily accommodate several age ranges. Nancy, over at <a href="http://www.dosmallthingswithlove.com/">Do Small Things With Love</a> rounded up a <a href="http://www.dosmallthingswithlove.com/2014/03/christian-easter-crafts.html">great list of 30 different crafts</a> centered around Easter. Here are a few that jumped out at me….</div>

Ruby Jane would especially love this one. I think this is a great craft for all ages and one I would keep for years and years to come. I also saw a really simple version with finger paints. How precious would that be to pull out every year? </div>

We hope you enjoy a little crafting fun with your family in preparation for Easter. Keeping things simple means more fun in my home and I hope these activities help to generate great conversation about the true meaning of Easter. </div>
