Dear family, my have you grown. Seriously, it is hard to think back to life when it was just me, myself, and I. You family have taught me so much about life and I am forever grateful. Lane, thank you for being my oldest, my strongest willed, my hyperist, my dressiest, and my most loving little girl.

Juli Camarin is too fun. We spent a beautiful overcast fall day together laughing and giggling at each others silliness. It was such a treat. Juli is a multifaceted woman whom I admire for her devotion to dissecting the Word, for her lovable personality, and her colorful style. Get to know her better yourself by reading below and find about her blog and the book she just wrote. Enjoy! You are a multifaceted woman! You are a designer, writer, blogger, teacher, and wife. Tell me how you juggle all these rolls.  I'm not sure I'd call it juggling, these things are such a part of me that unless I am actively engaged in each one, I struggle and feel boxed in... Designing, helps me to capture the images in my head and assign form to it. My two favorite mediums are websites and verse art. (and well...also creating the occasional bling!) Writing, helps me solidify concepts. I find great joy in studying the Bible, ...
