Wrapped in Love

My favorite part of having our little monogram business is the opportunity to pray for the people that will be using my products. Because each thing is personalized, I can lay out the designs and choose colors while thinking about that person. I pray that they will be blessed by this gift and that they…

Taco Soup

Some days you just need to throw dinner together. For me, feeding 11 people every night (plus there are often extra people here), can be daunting. So I keep a list of things I can make in a flash that don’t cost a lot and are pretty healthy. If the girls can make it it’s…

Giveaway!

Every stinkin’ year I get caught by surprise. Someone doesn’t have what they need for the cold weather. Keep in mind we’re in TEXAS. You Kentucky,…

Shop 24

It’s up…. It’s ready…… Drum roll please…….. Our etsy shop is up and running. The name of our place is Shop 24. The name is based on Proverbs 31:24, “She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.” The girls and I will be adding and changing our items often, so…

My Homies

More love from the ‘hood. I love these people. There’s a whole other group that comes on Wednesday nights….I love them too! I…
