The Gym Wants You to Know…
Some have said that working out, just like other routines in life, can become easier and easier to do as time goes on. I’ll be honest, I never bought into this thought. It’s exercising: I’ll be sore for days, tired, and let’s face it, an excuse will come up that’ll make me “forget” to put […]
It’s More Than Just a Cupcake Tin
They’re warm, gooey, and I have to control myself in eating just one: Cupcakes! For my personal obsession to them, I have to really thank mi amiga Ashton, who actually has a bigger love for the my-size cakes that create a buzz. And it wasn’t until I moved to northern CA for a few years […]
Saving that Doesn’t Make you Squirm
Right under Jesus, Me, and his family, the hubby could probably spend every day talking to Dave Ramsey. I promise you, Nathan’s not a crying guy, but I have a feeling he would probably shed a tear of joy if he met the man! And yes, I would at least take a mental picture of […]
Surprise With a Sundae!
They go and they come, back and forth, on the same bus with the same kids. It’s the everyday school routine that, if you put yourself in their shoes, would feel as monotonous as it sounds like. You wouldn’t think the same-day routine would get old for your kids, but just ask them, “Did you […]
Sometimes it’s a matter of putting down what lifts you up.
One of the things I’m trying to learn in my new place in life is that you cannot reach out and take the gifts God is trying to give you if you are clutching all of the old stuff YOU think you should have or need. You want to be open to what God […]
The Drinks Hurting Your Exercise
You’ve been a running machine for the last 30 minutes, and for 30 minutes everyday the last few weeks. But what you’ve been seeing is that your clothes are fitting tighter than ever, “tired” is your common feeling most days. Have you taken a look at what you’re drinking lately? I know, it’s something so […]
What’s a Slumber Party Without…
Cookies, candy, a few tummy aches, and maybe, just maybe, some pancakes in the morning. It’s a moment of childhood that almost every person has experienced once: a slumber party (or for guys, a “sleep over”). Whether you went to only one, or every weekend your parents got a break while you jumped from house […]
Volunteering 101
There’s an itch that keeps growing, a pull on your heart strings that won’t go away: the need to volunteer! I can tell you this, I’m VERY familiar with this feeling, and once it gets you it won’t let go. But that’s not a bad thing. In fact, to be more and more like Christ, […]
A Letter To My Lovely Wife and Life Partner Lois
Tomorrow morning when you wake up, and the future is unclear… I will be here. Thirty four years together, and we’ve seen so many changes. Changes in jobs, changes in health, changes in cities, changes in family, changes in each other. One thing that will never change is my intensely held devotion to you as […]

It’s not winter-y weather without a few delays and even closures here in East Texas. Sorry kids, for most schools you’re still expected to be there tomorrow…but most are delaying things by a few hours. And look out for a few evening meetings that are wanting you to stay safe and inside tonight […]

Some Extra Spackle on the Marriage
We live in a world of fragile marriages. It’s a hard thing to think about, and it can get even harder for many to discuss, but it is the reality right in front of us. Human nature has taken control, selfishness has hurt many individuals, and marriages are being started and stopped faster than you […]
Cutting Costs and STILL Enjoying Your Food
Food is seen by most as a necessity that your body would die without. Honestly, I don’t see food as just that–I see it all as a beautiful variety of tasty morsels that God has blessed us with. I know, maybe a little dramatic! But you can ask Nathan: I am a FAN of […]
Exercising…When Injured
Not sure if you think the same thing as me, but when I hear the word “injury,” the last thing I think about is exercising. In fact, this is the exact thought process going on: INJURY = EXCUSE FOR NO WORKOUT SICK = EXCUSE FOR NO WORKOUT REALLY COLD OUTSIDE = EXCUSE FOR NO WORKOUT […]
Avoid a Choking Moment
Whether you’re a first-time parent, third-time parent, or you spend quite a bit of time around little ones, there are always things to look out for when it comes to protecting the munchkins! One such thing to keep that eye out for: choking hazards. Yes, you already know about the usual culprits — marbles, buttons, […]
Stains Can’t Fight These!
You’ve tried to wear white clothes before, but the inevitable always seems to happen: Ketchup, coffee, and the whole gamut somehow end up on that cute white top you told yourself to just keep in the closet. Or even worse, you’ve stained a friends white carpet and can’t imagine the cost to get […]

Fridge Cleaning 101
Unless you’re like Danny Tanner from “Full House,” loving every moment of cleaning, the thought of cleaning out the fridge makes you already gag. It’s a job that you know needs to get done, but you wish you could volunteer someone else for it. Good News: it doesn’t have to be a dreadful, whole-day project. With the […]
