It’s almost Christmas so I figured it’s probably time to go ahead and write my Thanksgiving post. Thanksgiving was wonderful. My entire family gets together every year for Thanksgiving, and we just keep growing and growing. This year we had 13 people all crammed into one noisy, messy cabin! The day we were supposed to…
This holiday season, remember that good deeds and random acts of kindness don’t count unless you post about them on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and every other social media outlet you belong to. I was so thankful when November finally ended because I’m not sure how much longer I could handle reading Facebook statuses like “Day 20:…
It has been almost one year since I nervously sat next to a crackling fire in my living room, about to be hypnotized for the first time. I was completely petrified, scared to let my psyche and willpower (or so I thought) be placed in the hands of another person. I wasn’t being hypnotized to…
I rarely post Isaac and I’s little conversations on Facebook, but this one was just too good to hold in. So if you follow me on the ‘ol Facebook, sorry you’re seeing this again.

One of my all-time favorite books is Bossy Pants by Tina Fey. I’m currently listening to the audio book version for the second time and laughing just as hard as my first go round with Queen Fey. There are few sources of entertainment that make me laugh out loud, like really laugh. Not the forced type…
I’ve been struggling a bit with my faith lately. I’m not doubting God’s existence and I’m not wondering if I still consider myself a Christian, because the answers to both are yes and definitely yes. My struggle, or confusion rather, is dealing with The Bible. I’ve been listening to Christian songs, Bible verses, and sermons…
Isaac: I had a long day, I’m exhausted Me: Me too Isaac: I’m going to go get in bed. Want to come up there and get in bed with me while I play video games? But we don’t talk to each other, we just lay there quietly and we just get to be together in…
