Soon-to-be Harvey Couple

James and Brittany ventured back to the ATL so that we could shower them with love and best wishes before they tie the knot in March. I'm so happy for the two of them, but their current pad in Baston (that's the closest I can get to a New England accent) is just not close enough. I'm excited for them to embark on the best, most exciting, fun adventure of their lives!

I was in charge of games, so of course, I put together a variety of crowd pleasers (* hint: Starbucks gift card prizes always get people interested in playing games!)

"Who of the Two, hold up the Shoe" Really fun game I adapted.
(*warning: can get a little smelly)

I was only a little excited to see my Memphis friend

(L-R) Brittany's sister, Kelly (did a great job planning!), the bride to be,
Lindsey, and of course the coffee-lover herself

I forgot how much I loved LHS until we had a semi-reunion

I hope no shoes were injured if thrown after the results of this game.

It should not be played without my supervision.

Love you Brit and James! And miss you already!

A little color

School has officially started for me, and my teachable teenagers will be booming into my room in two days!

I still have to put it all together, but here's what the finished product will look like with a little more subtle turquoise: I have it all painted and ready to be assembled! More pics upon completion! (may be quite a while though now that school is in session... hope you weren't holding your breath.) ~CC

Break from the blog

As March begins, often we hope for a great thaw in our land. Now Georgia certainly doesn't have any icy soil that needs warming, but our yearning for more light and fresh newness to keep us from numbing appears universal. I have written on this blog for ten years now. From singleness to newlywed to mama of four sickly, but now active, growing boys. It's been a place for me to purge, process, and pray through some of life's biggest changes and challenges. It's also helped me keep distant family and friends informed, but I've felt for some time it's come to an appropriate place for pause. I know that I have many more mountains and valleys to travel if the Lord wills it, and many more personal lessons that I'd love to share and reread to my kiddos one day (and if anyone wants to organize and compile this little landscape into a memoir, please be my guest), but I do not ever want to assume a posture of numbness as it relates to our regular routines.
