The general consensus when it comes to blogging, Instagram, Facebook, and the like is that it’s a totally edited, candy-coated picture of life. A lot of t...

An Ode to Poor Photography and Tinted Lashes

Most of the time, especially during the summer, I wear very little makeup. Some tinted moisturizer, a swipe or two of blush, mascara, and I’m out the door...

🎶 I want a Sunday kind of love. 🎶 For many 🎶 I want a Sunday kind of love. 🎶

For many years, I thought he wasn’t my best friend. I thought he fit in a different role because he was my husband. And, while hanging with him is certainly different than a girl hang, the last year has certainly changed my outlook on his best friend-ranking. 

I’ll tell you one thing for sure: I’m never disappointed when he comes home or we spend time together or get to do anything or nothing. He’s my favorite partner—for all the highs and lows.
The latest adventure. Part of our story is that The latest adventure. 

Part of our story is that God has asked us to be good stewards of what we have. We discovered a love of kayaking a few weeks ago and then made the best of finding some to meet our needs. 

We snagged some kayaks from our favorite outfitter and set out for our favorite river spot. Adventuring at its finest. (Several years ago that was my word for the year.) 

We had a blast, found a great spot, and learned a few lessons. 

Here’s to learning as you go!
Allow me to introduce {our}selves: I’m Jolie. Allow me to introduce {our}selves: 

I’m Jolie. Wife, mama, teacher, friend, daughter, Aggie, writer, encourager, reader, letter writer. 

That’s the boy. LEGO builder, author, advocate, fundraiser, creative, friend, Type One butt-kicker. 

That that’s Mr. Gray. Husband, father, friend, role model, coach, teacher, learner, discerner. 

This is us! (Except now Mr. Gray cut his hair. 😭😭😭) Sometimes we match when we go out. Sometimes we laugh too loud. Sometimes we overreact. We love and forgive each other. We work together to help others and make the world around us better. 

Who are you? How are you? 👇🏻
