This week I’m inspired by our upcoming move and settling into our new home, as you could probably guess from the title “Soundtrack Saturday Home.” I just can’t wait to make this into our home.
Catching Up vs Chasing
Sometimes It takes a while to catch up. Although I think I’m always in that state. At some point I think becomes more chasing what you want to be rather than catching up from where you were. I think Chasing is better. It propels you forward. Catching up means you still stuck where you were. …
House, Anniversary, and Organization in February
So this month we celebrated our one year anniversary. It seems crazy to think it’s already been a year. We we’re supposed to close on the house on our anniversary weekend so my husband planned an overnight get away for the weekend after. It was a great time of just getting away from all the …

It’s been a while since I’ve done a Top Ten Tuesday (hosted by Broke and Bookish) So I thought I’d jump in on this one and investigate what’s coming out next year. Here are the 10 I’m looking forward to. Blackbeard the pirate was known for striking fear in the hearts of the …
