This blog is for you, whether you are a fun mom, a messy mom, a tired mom, an overwhelmed mom, or the mom who has spit-up in her hair and old oatmeal on her clothes, because I have been there. My desire is that this blog would encourage you and minister to your heart. But even if you aren't a mom, you will find fun information here too! I love to blog about home decorating, recipes, photography, family and faith.
My two boys are 5 and 7 years old, and I have been married to my husband for almost 14 years. My husband and I work in ministry at a church near Los Angeles, CA. For the last two years, I have been speaking at MOPS groups and churches, as well as writing my first book, which I hope to be released later this year.
But enough about ME, this blog post is all about YOU!

Stopping by from UBP. That garlic set looks amazing!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHello from UBP! I think we are all those moms, though hopefully not all at the same time ;). Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteMessy mom. Tired mom. Overwhelmed mom. Old oatmeal mom. And my kids are 21, 20, and 16! I love the encouragement we all give each other here in blog world! Thanks for sending some my way! Amy
ReplyDeleteIt was great to stop by. I will definitely be back. Thank you for offering such a wonderful giveaway too. :)
ReplyDeleteJaimie, you were correct when you mentioned us having similar passions in your comment on my blog. I've really enjoyed looking around and look forward to reading more.
ReplyDeleteStopping by from UBP, #16! Great giveaways!
ReplyDelete"...whether you are a fun mom, a messy mom, a tired mom, an overwhelmed mom, or the mom who has spit-up in her hair and old oatmeal on her clothes..."
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess this blog is for me because I am ALL of those (except we don't eat oatmeal and now the spit-up has been replaced by boogers!).
It must be so exciting to have a book coming out. I can barely manage to write these comments, it'd take me a decade to write a book ;)
I'm here from the UBP13 now following you on FB, Twitter, and GFC :)

I enjoyed reading your post on social media and I can identify with it (although not in regard to twitter but FB and Blog readers). It is really easy to get caught up in those things and take our eyes off the ministry aspect of what we're doing. Your blog looks fun and I'm glad I found it via UBP. I'd love to have you link up to my new blog hop beginning May 3rd on Bible Love Notes.
ReplyDeleteBless you,
Gail
Love that you're giving stuff away for the party! Good luck with the upcoming book, I will be looking for it.
ReplyDeleteHello! It is very nice to "meet" you. I really like your party post. Your blog is beautiful and clean. I am going to peek around now at more posts. You got me to click more... :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a great week. Blessings!
Visiting from the UBP hop.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to meet you! I'll be following.
