Happy Birthday to the man, my man... BJ Boo Boo Bear

That's right readers... today, YES today, is William Jonathan's (haha!) birthday.  It is time to celebrate, rejoice, and admire the man that God has created in our beloved BJ.  If you know BJ, you know that today is a reason to celebrate him.... if you don't... well, let me give you a few reason why you should:
He looks great in girl shorts..... this is good for a family on a budget.  

He loves his music... it could be classic rock, indie emo ballads, worship, or love songs... this boy will sing at the top of his lungs (and with passion) if he really likes a song. I appreciate that he really does have good taste in music, so this is a endearing quality. 
This picture represents a 2-fold reason to celebrate BJ.  
1. The color orange-- not many people are as obsessed with the color like BJ... he loves orange like a girl loves pink.
2. When he pouts, it is quite ridiculous.... and really cute too.
Um.... sometimes BJ thinks he is hard core... look at this picture.  Who is he trying to scare?  Personally, this disgustach grosses me out, so I am done there.
While BJ didn't play football in highschool, to me, this picture represents a healthy obsession with the game.  Just so everyone knows, if you need to find BJ in the next 4 months on Saturdays and Sundays.... he will be in front of the tube watching the beloved game.  And I, will be right beside him!
He puts up with my ridiculousness.... this picture accurately represents the way we look at things...haha.
He has a massive vertical.  Now I know you can't tell from the picture, but he is actually suspended at least 6feet mid-air.  So impressive BJ.... think London 2012, trampoline.
Um... he is really hot.  I specifically remember this picture because it took place at a wedding of our dear friend (shout out Ruth & Paul).  He had been out of town for the last 8 days and surprised me at this reception.... he looked hot, and pulled off an ultra romantic appearance.
He loves to hug.  He is a boy that is NOT afraid to share his emotions--- and when I say that, I mean it.  He is way better than me.... and makes me want to hug.

I LOVE YOU BJ!!  I am so blessed that I am about to take your name and become your wife.... Happy 3-0.... I know that the BEST IS YET TO COME....  Happy, Happy Birthday.

hey! so i'm a college student and i'm getting married next december. While looking at/for wedding stuff online i came across your blog. First of all your wedding was beautiful. But what i found most impressive is how you based everything around God. My fiance is a Bible major at the college we attend, so we too are basing everything around God. I do have a question though. where did you find your dress? It's amazing-all my roommates and I have been admiring it.

in Him-

12 years later.

Tonight, 12 years ago, I enrolled as a Rodan + Fields consultant. I’ve shared so many times about my journey and how I am still taken by surprise for that level of bravery to embark on a professional journey I was so scared to do. Today, on what should be the celebration of my Rodanniversary, has instead turned out to be one of the most surreal, painful, and grief-filled moments of my entire life. The Rector’s livelihood was taken away in an instant with a restructuring of R+F’s business model… I woke up today having no clue I would be receiving this news and am finishing the day pinching myself to see if I am really and truly experiencing this nightmare.  I have one million thoughts and none at all at the exact same time. Tonight, after processing the reality for myself and with BJ, we chose to sit Eleanor and Tripp down to have the impossible conversation with them - one we genuinely never dreamed could ever come about. And I never want to forget what we talked about around our d...

Where'd You Go, Bernadette?

THE OVER-SHARER SHARES AGAIN   For the very small handful of people who have asked, I’m answering to the masses (err, bigger handful). On February 1, I decided to take a social media fast. Our church was challenging us to a 21-day fast and I chose to fast not from food but from something else I had been looking to for satisfaction, delight or distraction. Here we are at the beginning of summer, and with the exception of popping on to facebook to check in with my business partners, I have found great freedom stepping away from social media (right now). Currently, I don’t have a plan to return, but I also know that I should never say never…. …Watch me pop right back in and eat crow in mere moments if I was to say I would be off of it forever. Honestly, social media has been a beautiful thing for me personally, and professionally, for well over a decade. It has allowed me to authentically and organically share my passions, ask my questions, get and give referrals, build and reconn...

Lynnie Girl goes to Kinder.

Oh good gracious. I sat down to start writing and immediately tears filled my eyes…. WHY am I like this? I truly can’t even believe how sentimental I am even in the midst of celebrating things changing. I just can’t believe we are really here: Dorothy Grace! You are heading to kinder and well, I am still pinching myself that you are ours. I still haven’t gotten over the miracle of your life - and I’m guessing this means I absolutely never will - but how is this little teeny tiny baby now ready to go to school? This is all just so fast.  When you were little we have the funniest memory of you sitting at the dinner table hearing all of us talk and you wanted to be part of the conversation. You lifted up your hands to get our attention and exclaimed: “Moment, Moment, Moment”… and then you kept repeating yourself over and over because we were hysterically laughing. We still reference this as a family all of the time because here you were just trying to be in the mix, bigger than you we...
