​Hello there! I’m so glad you’re here! I’m a Texas girl through and through—born and raised in Dallas County, with a 20-year stint in a country town where we rarely locked our doors or cars. Now, I’m back in Dallas, living life with a patriotic spirit and a love for God and my country. I’m a conservative at heart, with a deep belief in personal responsibility and old-fashioned manners.

​

I’m a creative soul who’s led worship for 20 years—singing in churches, conferences, and retirement homes across the U.S. and in foreign places like Africa, South America and London, England. I’m a crafter, decorator, thrifter, and a lover of old books and antiques. Married to a wonderful man, I’m a mom of four, a proud grandma to eight, and a former homeschooler of 17 years. (Plus, I'm a freelance insurance file reviewer from home.)

​​

At my core, I love people (especially my family) and my plan is to share my life's learnings, some wisdom, and a whole lot of joy on these pages. It's time to start dreaming again!
