STILL LOLO review



Sometimes you enter a day and you just dont feel like your self, or someone tells you that you are not acting like yourself. The book Still Lolo by Lauren Scruggs and family is about the journey of a young lady who in one fun instance her whole life changed.

Lauren was a normal run of the mill student who was working super hard to have her dreams come true. Like many people, when things are going well you sometimes drift from your beliefs and dont keep them as centerfold. Lauren had realized she was drifting found her way back and then it hit her.
Lauren was visiting a friend during the Christmas season and her whole life changed.

This book covers the highs and lows of the journey Lauren has taken over the past year which includes a visit to a hospital, learning things she already knew, coming to know that she will never be the same but can still be amazing, and family. I would highly recommend this book to athletes, dreamers, Christians that think they are the only ones that push away when things get hard, and someone who wants to know that lessons are learned when things get tough.

*** I am reviewing this book for Tyndale House Publishers and was provided with a free copy of the book**** 
Book can be found on Amazon, Barnes and Nobles, Lifeway Christian stores and so many more.

LIFE: Camp

I have had an awful lot of un published blogs lately. These blogs come from deep routed feelings that have surfaced this year due to one thing or another. Maybe some day these blogs will be unearthed but for today, this blog needed to be written while it was still raw.  I have very vague memories of third or forth grade summer camp at Alto Frio, where I met Nana Pudding ( a christian puppet) and went pogging for the first time in a river. Summer after sixth grade,  I got in church vans and headed to Louisiana for the first time to attend Student Life Camp, then proceeded to go to Angelo State University and Glorieta New Mexico a few times. I spent time serving during spring breaks at Riverbend Retreat Center which lead to an internship over the summer. The week that "Curtis" and I first really got to know each other, we were at Glorieta for Centrifuge camp.  Camp is a special place for me. Camp is a happy place for me.  In 2018, I was able to experience camp through ...

REVIEW: Gratitude: A Prayer and Praise Coloring Journal

{necessary information} I received this book as a try-me from Tyndale Publishers and the opinions expressed in this blog are mine alone and not those of the author or publisher {transparency of blogger} I have worked for preschools and coaching facilities and as a babysitter for most of my life. Sometimes you have an extra coloring sheet laying around while the kids are babysitting ( and sometimes it was on purpose) so you have to sit down with the kids and use the best crayons or color pencils available to color the extra page. Okay, okay, I love to color. There is something therapeutic to coloring.  { review Gratitude} I love all things girly, so the fact that this book came with a flowery firm cover- I was giddy. Then you open up to devotion surrounded with black and white images crying to be colored- I was over the moon. After I read the devotional there is room to journal through my thoughts, taking coloring breaks. I highly reccomend this book for all ages and would b...

love is patient and kind

There is a point in your life when you have to accept that your plan for your family( brothers, sisters, moms and dads) and friends is not your own. I grew up in a family where if I had not accepted their changes, I would not have family and would have grown up sad and alone. I grew up in a family where they did not attend church, so they knew that I was not happy about their changes but I still loved them and prayed for them endlessly. I do not have to agree with people or be uplifted by someone to show them Gods love though loving them. God loves us even when we endlessly try to walk away by sinning. These people may not be doing what God wanted for them but it is not our place to throw it in their faces, once we tell them- we pray for them and keep loving them.
