Restored and Redeemed
I have this beautiful little pair of boots that I wore when I was about four years old. I would not wear any other shoes 🙂 I was obsessed with horses and those boots transported my little mind to places that were filled with horses racing from one field to the...
Time Off

What Would You Have Said?
This past Friday my husband and I celebrated our 22nd wedding anniversary. We actually went to dinner and a show and had a fantastic time. Over dinner we had some great conversation and then my husband, in true fashion, asked me a question that really made me think. ...
