The Best (Inspiring) Books Ever, Lately

I really love to read, and one thing I have never really blogged about is some of the books I've found to be really inspiring, great reads. My favorite genre is realistic fiction that has some life lessons, and bonus points if they have faith. I've also been reading some nonfiction stuff over God and different things, so here's some[...]

How to Shop Successfully on a Budget

For the weekend I am going to my friend's and we're going shopping! I'm really excited. My friend and I were talking and we were mentioning how it seems like a lot of times when we shop together we just roam the shops freely and half the stuff we buy we end up not liking, or it breaks or something. We would make documents and put ima[...]

Live from the Mall or Blog Goals

We decided to head into Des Moines, so my dad could get his iPhone fixed, and now I have an idea for a post. I actually think it was on my idea list, but ya know, just writing about your blog goals is boring, so we're going to incorporate a story about a girl who went to the mall and saw her dream laptop. Not that last part, but hey[...]

How Racing is Like Life

Things don't always go as planned. Sometimes the car will flip, or something else just isn't right. You just have to fix it and keep on going, and do the best you can with God. In racing, you can't give up, and it's the same with life. Some seasons are awesome, the car is working great, you're faster than ever, and it is just t[...]

Hi, I’m Ashlee!

Hi, I’m Ashlee!

Welcome to My Blog

I am passionate about sharing and living for Jesus, authentic storytelling, moving design, and all things girly, just because. Here on my blog, I love writing about all the things God is teaching me in my everyday life to inspire, encourage, and entertain for His glory, above all, and to share an honest, raw view of life, faith, and His light, love, and hope that saves. As an aspiring author, I record my journey of trusting God with all my dreams. I pray this space can help you fall in love with God more deeply, make you laugh, and encourage, challenge, and reassure you as you seek to live a bold, abundant life for Him.
