As I mentioned on Friday, we were scraping our master bedroom ceiling this past weekend. So guess what? We also decided to paint the walls while we were at it. I wanted a grey room yet again, but the hubs said no more grey (we don’t even have a grey wall in the house yet!)….

August 13, 2013 by Kara 5 Comments

I have been scouring the earth Knoxville for a serpentine style dresser I could call my own, meaning it couldn’t cost me a fortune. I was in luck when Missy’s Treasures posted a beautiful serpentine dresser in white to her page that was just my size and price tag (cheaper than our awesome Ikea dresser). I…

Seriously, when it’s not INSANELY hot, it’s perfect weather for me to be out in my driveway reliving my youth, or rather, keeping myself young depending on how you look at it. I could be out there for hours at a time….

Trying to be a Christ follower among Christians

July 31, 2013 by Remington 5 Comments

This is a blog post that I have been working on for…well…weeks. I keep coming back to it, deleting sections, adding more, pouring over my words tediously examining my intent. Needless to say, this has been a labor of love. Love. Love. Love. (you’ll get it in a minute) Sooooooooo…… Ask someone if they know…

July 26, 2013 by Remington Leave a Comment

So we wanted to break up St. Thomas into a couple of parts because we got so many awesome pictures of us pulling into port right after sunrise. It was beautiful and quaint just like a painting. So how about our actual day in St. Thomas? Well…just sit right back and you’ll hear a tale…….
