 I had the opportunity to grab newborn shots of little Miss Evelyn Smith. She is the brand new daughter to good friends Adam and Amy Smith. I love shooting babies within the first week because they are so sleepy and willing to move into different poses. However, this little one refused to sleep. I did…

       I had the opportunity, as did many Northern Kentuckians, to visit the sprawling mansion on Turkeyfoot Road. I’ve driven by this house almost daily and have watched the Tim Burks team build it from scratch, so I was thrilled to see the inside of it. Every May there is a collection of new…

I loved the pictures you took. I too wanted badly to visit the Joey Vista, but was unable or unwilling. I dream too of a day where I can have a laundry room and kitchen like that. Who knows maybe in our mansion in heaven, we will all have “average” homes like that! Thank you for reminding me how blessed we are! We are warm, dry, comfortable,and satisfied. Thank you LORD!  I just finished a great book by Judah Smith, entitled, Jesus is ______. Judah expands on who Jesus is at the core, and scratches a wonderful surface of truths rarely translated so graciously. One particular quote has stood out to me as I’ve been wrestling the ideas of effective evangelism. “Here’s a tip. Jesus…

Great post! I completely agree. So often we are guilted into doing things and hear sermons on what we should and shouldnt do. If we recognize and feel the love from Christ without condemnation and guilt, we will only want to please him. Being told what we have to do, can often times make us want to do the opposite, but feeling love and forgiveness from Christ will open our hearts to what pleases him.  So, per my husband’s request, here is a post dedicated to the food critic in me. Bryan is constantly telling me, “you need to be a food critic.” I’m not altogether buying it, but here is a review on a local restaurant we visit frequently. For starters, I did grow up with a chef…

This was a great post and had me wanting to go back. How about this weekend? I could use a good plate of mussels! Love this post!

You don’t have to ask me twice.  Saturday we woke up to no hot water. So, needless to say I went without a shower because I’m not sure if I could stand a cold shower. At the recommendation of a few people we decided to replace our heating elements in our water heater before buying a new water heater. Thankfully this…

I am frustrated by clutter! But I love my memories. One thing recently that I was faced with, I keep all my cards that people have sent me. Old letters, birthday cards, and love letters fill my old shoe boxes and tupperware bins. But now it was time to purge. I managed to clean up some of the mess, throwing away old cards with simple messages, and keeping ones most precious to me. I was torn between frustration and sentiment. Sentiment won! -eve-

I enjoyed being with you and going through some bins. I’m thankful for Jeff as well! We are very blessed. I love you!

Sarah – I am having the same problem. Trying to purge my closets of materials I haven’t touched in several years. Definitely a hoarder and want to overcome my tendencies. I’m sure it would make me feel better (like a juice cleanse would), but it’s letting go that is so difficult. How petty this seems to greater problems in the world!

Eve-Yes, sentiment wins! I have tried to do the same thing. Thanks for sharing!

Bry-Thanks for your support on this blog. I wouldn’t want to share this life or learn these lessons with anyone else but you.

Laura-you are not a hoarder. But, we do have Nana Goepper tendencies running through our bones for sure. Letting go is difficult. If I let things go, I might forget they ever happened. We can’t all have Marlene type brains who remember even the smallest details. Smiling. Love you.  I got such a kick out of watching Sadie be mesmerized with her great-grandmother (Nene) applying her makeup. These pictures brought so many tender memories of me and my grandmother and makeup, not housed on roles of film, but in my heart. I don’t know if Sadie and I are the only ones fascinated…
