Fire-versary… Five Years Later
It’s been five years since one of the most impactful events to our lives, a day I think I will remember with clarity until the day I die. It was 4:00 in the morning. Both Ryan and I were sound asleep. I was still half asleep when I heard what sounded like breaking glass. I …

Showin’ Some Love: Podcasts
I used to do these Showin’ Some Love posts all the time, but then other things would come up and they’d get pushed to the back burner. So I think it’s high time I brought back another post on things I’m currently loving! Today I want to focus on Podcasts! I’m a big fan of …
