READ MOREquick takes: award winning Edition!
{One} Remember when I was first nominated for the Liebster? And then when it made its way back to my blog twice in the same week? It is back again! This time the wonderful Nancy over at Joy Alive nominated me for it! At this point it feels a bit like playing telephone because the rules change…
READ MOREquick takes: snowy Edition.
{One} Snow is beautiful. I love snow…in winter. NOT in the spring. I’m so over that I’m getting really cranky because the sun and the mountains disappear, and then I hear friends complaining because it is *only* 75 degrees where they are at. In one day we had 14 inches of snow at my house this…

{One} First, pray for Jen (the host of Quick Takes) and her sweet baby! What a wonderful name Joseph Thomas is! {Two} I totally can’t shake the feel that I’m staring down the barrel of a chaotic gun. The next four weeks of my life include, but are not limited to the following events: three…
READ MOREquick takes: exhausted Edition.
{One} Yup, the exhausted edition. I love Holy Week. I love Easter. It is such a liturgically rich time that I so enjoy…and yet this year it was chaotic. Working for the Church meant that more often than not I was working while I was attending the various services. Call me crazy but it is hard to focus…

Oh, I have three Confirmation ceremonies coming up at two…

{One} WE HAVE A NEW POPE! I literally started bouncing up and down when the white smoke poured out and could not sit down until he came out on the balcony, at which point I started crying! Not to mention the fact that when the “Adopt a Cardinal” website made its way around, I ended up with Cardinal…

{One} I’m a huge fan of countdowns. In case you haven’t noticed, I added a countdown on the sidebar to the release date of the book. I’m saddened that it doesn’t count the days (yet). In all honesty, I’ve avoided counting the days because I think it would freak me out a bit. I’ve got…

{One} Don’t forget to enter for your chance to win a free, signed copy of my book – due out MAY 14th! Also, I have no idea how I managed to blog, write the book, do my job, and maintain a relationship last year. I just started a new job last week so I’m working a few more…
READ MOREquick takes: what a Week.
{One} If you don’t know by now that Pope Benedict XVI has resigned as pope, I’m fairly certain that you live under a rock. I was at daily Mass when the priest said that he wanted to offer Mass for our Holy Father who had just announced his resignation and it took every ounce of…
