How was everyone's Easter? I hope to hear that it was full of joy and celebration of our risen King! Last week in my most recent CWS Happenings post, I had shared that I had a very busy Easter week ahead of me. Well, it's officially over! It was a very busy and draining week, but overall, it was even more rewarding. Here are some photos from my awesome week! At PennDel's District Fine Arts, my little dancing mini-me named Autumn made it on to Nationals Fine Arts for her worship dance ...
CWS Happenings // Vol. 4
Happy Hump Day, everyone! How is your week going so far? Mine has been busy and will continue to be more busy throughout the rest of the week, leading up to Easter. Today and tomorrow I'll be a dance judge for District Fine Arts for PennDel.

Brace yourselves, for when I get passionate about an issue like this I am completely straight-up when I address it. Do understand that the tone of this message is not ...
Coffee-Themed Bridal Shower
Over my Spring Break, I had my bridal shower back where Michael is from. Michael's mom hosted it at their house and planned the whole thing. When she originally was planning it, she wanted to keep the details a surprises, but when she found out we'd be there all week before, she had to let me in on the details! She threw me a coffee-themed bridal shower and can you guess where she got the idea from? Yep! My blog. She's lovely and sweet like that. I must admit, the week of the shower I ...
Live Lionhearted
Live brave. Live daring. Live fearless. Live courageous. Live lionhearted. The freedom that comes with living lionhearted is attractive and inviting. It is inspiring and influences a chain reaction of others who are willing to step out into the adventure of being brave and fearless. It is not an easy step to take. Taking on the spirit of one who is lionhearted can be nerve-racking, because it requires an openness to vulnerability and authenticity in all that you do. This attitude of life ...
