Well friends, we made it to June, and I do not know about y’all, but it already feels like summer showed up with absolutely no intention of easing into things gently. The heat arrived, the humidity moved in permanently, and somewhere along the way my motivation packed a small bag and disappeared until at least…
At Home
Pull Up a Chair: May 29, 2026
Well friends, we officially made it to the last Friday in May, and honestly, I feel like this month packed at least three separate years into it somehow. May always starts out feeling fresh and hopeful, and then somewhere around the middle of the month everything speeds up all at once. School activities, graduations, Memorial…
A Quiet Kind of Honor: Remembering on Memorial Day
Memorial Day has always meant something a little deeper in our family. It is not just the start of summer or a long weekend filled with cookouts and sunshine. It is a day that carries stories, memories, and a quiet kind of pride that settles in your heart and stays there. I grew up in…
Pull Up a Chair: May 22, 2026
Well friends, another Friday has rolled around and honestly, I am not entirely sure how we got here so quickly. May always seems to move at two completely different speeds. Some days drag on forever while others disappear before I have even figured out what day it actually is. One minute you are talking about…
When the House Finally Feels Lived In
There is a moment that happens in a house, and you don’t notice it right away. It doesn’t come with an announcement or some big shift you can point to. One day, you’re still adjusting, still figuring out where things go, still noticing everything that feels off. And then somewhere along the way, without really…
Pull Up a Chair: April 24, 2026
Pull up a chair. This week feels like it belongs at the kitchen table. Not in a big, memorable, holiday kind of way. Not the kind where you set out your best dishes or plan something special. Just the everyday kind of table where life happens in between everything else. That is where most of…
Pull Up a Chair: April 17, 2026
Pull up a chair. This week has felt a little more like real life again. Not the kind where everything is perfect or even particularly exciting, but the kind where the days start to blend into something familiar. And after the past few months, I will take familiar every single time. There has been a…
Sunshine and Headphones
I was sitting here today working with my headphones on and just lost in my world when Uncle R came walking through and almost fell over laughing. He asked if my concert was going well. While I got a little embarrassed I realized that for the last five hours I have been sitting working and…
Pull Up a Chair: April 10, 2026
Pull up a chair. This week has felt quieter, but in a different way than last Friday. Last week carried a kind of stillness that asked us to pause. To sit with something heavy and meaningful. And then Easter came, and with it a sense of light that felt both familiar and new at the…
Pull Up a Chair: April 3, 2026
Pull up a chair. Today is quiet in a different way. Not the kind of quiet that comes from a slow morning or a peaceful afternoon, but the kind that feels intentional. Sacred. A little heavier, but not in the same way the past few months have been heavy. Today is Good Friday. It is…
