Our Trip

Good Morning!

Several weeks ago we drove down to Ohio and I explained the circumstances here.  

Even through the trying situation we made it an enjoyable trip as much as possible.

Our first rest stop about 2hrs in.  My daughter took this pic : )

We saw many cool trucks on our drive down..

That really makes me happy!  I love this..might have to frame it : )

When we arrived we were honored to have the President of Jane Tv, Jackie Dorman, open up her home for my family to stay.

It was so good to be with them.  There is Jackie getting business done.

She had an interview set up with a magazine in Easton.  I love coming to this place! It has every store imaginable that could meet all your needs.  Check out the site and see for yourself and it is a family friendly atmosphere.

Saw this car there..

STUNNING!

Love the color blue with the camel color interior.  My husband was drooling : ))

While my husband was falling for the car I was dying over this outdoor fireplace.

And of course the obvious question was, "Can you build me one?"  That's me and the other man in my life.

I hope you all enjoy Halloween and stay safe.

How's Your Journey Going?

Hello All!  

A couple of weeks ago around 2am I woke up from falling asleep in my family room and my husband had just finished recording music in the studio when we got the news that someone we knew had passed away.

We were devastated.

He had just got finished speaking and said to his wife, "I love you. I'll see you at home." He never got a chance to make it there.

Corey and I knew we had to go to the memorial service.

We all piled in our car and made the long 8hr drive to Ohio.  It was a lot of time to think.

I thought about how fleeting life is...I thought about my husband..my children.

What kind of legacy will I leave behind?  Will it be something I am proud of?

All I know is this...

I want to be a wonderful wife.  I want to be a place of safety and acceptance for my husband.  I want to stay true to the vows I took.

I want to be a great mother for my children.  A place of assurance and unconditional love.  I want to be an encourager of dreams.

I want to be an incredible friend, one who will sharpen you to become better and tell you the truth even if it hurts because I love you.

This drive was bitter sweet.  It put this thing called "Life" into perspective. The realization that there is more than this.

Yes, Ohio, I welcome you.  I thank you, God, for this dear man and family and for the shift in perspective.

May all of us live a little more purposefully today.

Got Some Exciting News

It's Monday, did you all get your morning coffee?  

I have some really exciting news that has been in the works for months and is just the beginning of many amazing things.  No I'm not pregnant..lol.

There is a new tv station based out of Columbus, Ohio that is called Jane tv, take a look at their promo..

(please press the pause button to your right to shut off music)

The beautiful lady, Jacqueline Dorman, who explains what Jane tv is all about in the video is the CEO/President of this station.  I am honored to be asked by her to be a regular contributor to their website.  We will discuss design and life because I believe the two go hand in hand. 

 Jane.tv will have entertaining and relevant shows and I can't wait for it to hit full throttle.  

The website is being upgraded now.  They will go live later this week but the official launch is September 9, 2011.

Check out their fan page here.  

I hope you all have a wonderful week.
