joy in motherhood, homemaking, faith & simple living
Ohhhhh, my goodness!!! There is nothing like being sore after not exercising for __ months. Yeah, I know I shared a lot yesterday, but if you haven’t figured out for yourself how long it’s been, I’m not giving you any clues!!! :) I was so utterly exhausted yesterday evening that I hardly could stay awake….

I have been feeling really antsy to get outside and stretch my legs, but something has been holding me back. Fear of not being able to keep up with myself? Fear of being too cold? Fear of having sore lungs once I got back in the house? I believe it was fear of simply failing…. [Read More]
Yesterday afternoon I met my friend Nikki for coffee at Biggby’s. While I was paying I slipped one of my business cards on the counter hoping someone would later pick it up, bring it home, and buy out my entire shop. Or, maybe take the time to look at my website? I would have been… [Read More]
You might remember {but probably not} that I wrote four posts on March 11. That was a big day for Gussy. Specifically, you might remember {again, but probably not ;)} that I mentioned I’d be making some bridal clutches for my friend, M. when I wrote this post: {this may or may not be my… [Read More]

It has been a while since I did a post on Etsy and all the cute things I would love to buy or give as gifts. That will be my focus today. I’m sure I’ll have more Gussy-like things to share later on, but right now the focus is going to be on my friend,… [Read More]
Man, I really feel like I’m letting some of you down. I know I haven’t posted much lately, and well… the truth is I don’t go many places these days, so my Gussy stories are a bit limited. For example, I went to the bank, post office, and grocery story today. Isn’t the life of… [Read More]
When Zack and I started dating, just about 5 years ago, he was in a male A Capella group at Central. The group was so good! It wasn’t hard to fall in love with Zack, his big smile, and his amazing voice. {To top it off, he was a big fan of Jesus!} Before we… [Read More]
I have listed this wallet for sale on Etsy again, and you can find it by clicking here. I thought it would be neat to offer customers the option of choosing how many credit/debit card slots they’d like, just like I did with Mandy. This particular sales brings me to #27. Such a blessings to… [Read More]
Almost two years ago I was finishing up my final semester of college. I have a Bachelor of Science degree from Central Michigan University. I majored in my two FAVORITE areas: journalism and art. I love, love, love to write and dabble in photography. My Etsy shop has been a great way to showcase those… [Read More]
