I could not even attempt to describe Silobration weekend in one word. So, instead, I’m going to use quite a few words and a boatload of photos, and only then will you begin to understand how amazing the experience was.
All in INSPIRATION
summer days
I decided to FOCUS on my family. Deep down I knew I needed to not stress over child care for the Summer but be present for my family.
living rural
Ryan and I live in a small community out of city limits. I may be bias but it's perfect. We have large pecan trees, 5 acres, lot's of flowers and most of all a stunning view of the sunset every single day.
re-brand recap
Now that we are shy of two months into rebrand I wanted to stop in and give you guys a recap and let you know hows it going.
why the change?
The biggest question I get when asked, why did you rebrand? What made you take the leap? What inspired you to refocus your brand?
Well, let me tell you.
big changes are coming.
Hello! I wanted to pop-in and give you a little update. For almost 2 years I've been wanting to make a big adjustment within our business. Unfortunately, due to timing not being right and less than positive feedback, it never happened. But now, the timing is perfect.
floating & lost.
There really isn't any way I could describe the last few months other than feeling lost. At the beginning of January we closed on two houses in two days. We sold our house one day and bought a house the next.
Beautycounter
This post is a good one! I don't talk much about my change in beauty regimen or my beauty regimen at all because I am not an expert in that area. So for that, I bring you a friend, Charity Smith.
get camping

find your word
About two years ago I started to focus on a word. No new years resolutions just one word that would sum up what I would hope for and what I could always fall back on in those times of "overwhelm". I have found it easier to remember and hold onto one word much easier than I can a phrase or unrealistic resolution I set for myself.
embrace the failure
That's hard to read, isn't it? We usually think of a failure as a bad thing, something to hide and quickly move past. I believe there is good in all the bad, all of the failures, those business ventures that left you in at a loss.
dance party
If there is anything that get's me going it's an awesome 90's pop song. I'm giving you our dance party play list. 5 of our go to songs.
what's your word?
New baby, new store, new renovations, new plans and big dreams. So, I chose the word embrace. I knew by the 6th day of 2017 that this year was going to be completely insane. One wild ride I was going to have to hold on for and embrace. I prayed that God would give me what it took to survive.
the seed was planted.
Setting goals and how to accomplish them. Growing up my siblings and I learned to work hard and to not quit until the job was done. We worked from sun up to sun down. My dad led by being the example.
heart of the home.
Food & fellowship, two things I hold dear to my heart. Growing up on a produce farm and working with my hands to tend to the land from a very young age made me appreciate the purpose and value of food. I say the heart of the home is the kitchen table.

finding rest.
I am an anxious person. I like things to move at a fast pace and when I'm made to slow down it hurts my brain. I've done this to myself. Everyone needs rest. I'm giving you my three ways I found more rest and am working to live a less anxious life.
