When Life Is Even Harder

I have Crohn's Disease. It is not pretty, but it is my life. Please take a minute to glimpse into the reality of living with an invisible illness.

November Goals // October Recap

My goals for my blog, my life, my marriage, and more!

One of the benefits of being part of the blogging community is finding inspiration from other bloggers.

This weekend, my husband is in Las Vegas with his brothers and their dad. Being the creative, independent woman that I am, I took the opportunity to drive down to Athens, Ohio for a film festival.
