March 12, 2018 by Aprille 1 Comment

We’ve been talking about our 10th anniversary for several years now. We’ve been throwing ideas at each other of where we should go, what we should do, how we should celebrate.

Beauty in the Mess ~ Edition 06.04.14

June 4, 2014 by Aprille 1 Comment

Can I just take a moment and rave about how great the past few weeks have been? I’m not really sure what has made the difference. Maybe it has something to do with warmer weather, or maybe the new supplement my husband is taking, or maybe the fact that we got to take a vacation and … [Read more…]

May 22, 2014 by Aprille 8 Comments

My husband told Ezra that we were going to take Cow on our trip with us so that he could have all sorts of adventures. And that we would take pictures of Cow so that he could look at them when he got back.

Beauty in the Mess ~ Edition 4.26.14

April 26, 2014 by Aprille 3 Comments

Thank you so much for your outpouring of heartfelt comments on my last post. It was so nice to feel less alone – and I was reminded yet again of the power of vulnerability and how it can touch the hearts of others when I least expect it. Now, it’s that time when I share … [Read more…]

March 24, 2013 by Aprille 4 Comments

Is life ever not messy? For the first time in days I actually find myself with a moment of quiet and access to my computer, but words are failing me to fully express the mess that has been my life, our lives, for the past few weeks. All I can say that it’s been messy. There … [Read more…]

It’s been a while, and I really need this post today. January has been a pretty tough month.

How I celebrated our first anniversary when my husband was deployed

March 8, 2009 by Aprille 4 Comments

It was our first anniversary, and my husband was on the other side of the world. I hadn’t seen him in four months. I pretty much spent all of the day in the house, not because I intentionally wanted to or enjoyed being a hermit, it just happened that way. I taught piano lessons in … [Read more…]
