Happy New Year!!!

Hi there,
Can't believe it's 2015!
Guess I'll just jump right in.
My life has been a bit of a roller coaster these days.
I turned 44 this month, and despite the ups and downs of the past number of months,
I'm so thankful for so many things.
I've got an amazing husband of nearly 25 years.
Our oldest daughter just got engaged on New Year's Eve, and she is in Israel for the next few months.
Our youngest daughter is working hard, caring for our adorable grandson, and dealing with her own ups and downs for sure.
The truth is I feel a little overwhelmed.
I'm usually the glass half full kind of person, but lately my glass has felt pretty empty.
Don't really have any answers, just know that my heart is heavy these days.
Most days I'm just trying to juggle a bunch of mixed emotions, and I'm really not that great at juggling.
Anyway, I know we all have our struggles.  Good times and bad.
Through it all, I know that God is with me.
He is my peace in the middle of the storm.
I hope the same for you.
Whatever you are going through.  May you know His peace.
A peace that goes above and beyond our understanding.
Until we meet again.
Blessings and hope for all that is to come.

Long time no blog!!!

Hello All,

It's been wayyy too long since I've posted on here.
Life is good, and we've had lots of changes around our household.
We celebrated 11 years in Nashville in August.  Hard to believe.
Our daughters are doing very well these days.  Our oldest is living in CA,
and is part of an internship program at a church there.  She's really loving it.
Our youngest is married, and working hard, and enjoying life.
My sweet husband of 22 years is working on all kinds of writing projects.
We're looking forward to what's next for us, and so thankful for all the blessings
in our lives.
As for music, I wrote a song with two of my best friends.  It's my first real "cut" on
an album, and I can't wait to hear the finished product.  So excited and thankful.
I'm heading in to the studio to finish a new album.  I've written a number of songs
over the years, but there are quite a few that I've never had the chance to record.
That's what this new album will consist of, and I can't wait to share it with everyone!
Guess that's about it for now. 
Hope you are all doing well, and hope you are enjoying journey.
My prayer is that you find those things that you are most passionate about, and live
each day with value and purpose.
Please comment etc...I love to hear from you!

I've Got to Post Something!!!

Hey All,

Well, life is pretty good right now.

So much to be thankful for.

Please keep in touch when you can.
I love to hear from all of you:)

What Happened to My Blog?

Hey Everyone,

Just thought I would say hello.
It's been wayyyy too long since I've posted anything.
Hope you are all doing well.
I've been busy just living life, and guess I forgot
to write about it...so sorry.
This is such a fun thing to do, but I have to
remember to actually make time to do it, lol.
Anyway, soon I will be the mother of a 16 and 18 yr old!
I'm very proud of my girls.
My hubby and I will celebrate 20 years of marriage in June.
We're looking forward to a special cruise to Alaska in July!
So much to celebrate.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Hello,
Thought I would touch base with everyone.
Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year celebration.
Our family relaxed and enjoyed a very quiet Christmas.
It was really great to wake up on Christmas morning, and just take it slow.
We opened our stockings, had yummy blueberry muffins and coffee...nice.
Next we opened our gifts.
The rest of the day was spent just hanging out together.
We spent some time with our friends later on.
I'm so thankful for all that happened this last year.
Now I'm really looking forward to all that God has planned for 2010!
My hope and prayer for you is to live this year with passion and purpose.
May this year be filled with all kinds of amazing adventures.
Keep in touch when you can.
I always LOVE to hear from you.
Let me know what's going on in your world.

Here's to an outstanding new year!

Long time no blog!

Hi All,

Just thought I should post something.
It's been a while since I've blogged.
Hope everyone is doing well these days.
We just came back from a few days away in Gatlinburg, Tn.
My hubby and I took our two amazing daughters for a family
getaway!
It was so beautiful. We stayed in a cozy cabin.
It was the perfect time to visit the smokey mountains.
Gorgeous colors, and great weather.
I'm thankful for my family, and thankful for His creation.
I'd love to hear how all of you are doing etc...
May you enjoy this fall season, and enjoy your family and friends.
