Revisiting My Honest Post Over School

Ever since beginning middle school, I’ve learned something new each year. Not the type of learning where you figure out how to add negative numbers and what not, but more like the type of learning where I figure out WHO I AM. Cheesy, right? But it’s true. In April, towards the end of sixth grade, I wrote a blog post called “An[...]

More Things I Don’t Like

I had a lot of fun writing about things I don't like, so we're going to do that again for this lovely Friday. Make sure you read the first post too! - When people don't take me or my blog seriously or think I want to do too much with it. - People categorizing other people. That just needs to stop. - When somebody says to snap them, s[...]

I want to get paid to write about products/events I love. I want to make my blog a big thing because people can get book deals that way. The list goes on. Making[...]

Reasons I Love Hockey

I think you all know by now that I really like hockey. Ever since the two games I went to last spring, I've loved it. It also helps when your favorite player is really good plus he's HOT. It makes it all that more fun to watch... Despite my brother saying I only like hockey because of that, that's not true, and here's why based on pi[...]

Let’s Talk About Willy

Back this spring, I did a post all about my "doog" Willy. I thought it was time we did a part two of his life story, what do you say? Yeah, of course you say yes to something about him... First thing you need to know... He's gotten huge and loves to trample the crap out of everyone. Especially in the car. I so appreciate that...[...]

A Letter to Myself About Basketball

Dear Ashlee, This is me to talking to you. Duh. It's a letter to MYSELF about basketball. Why am I writing this? Because I know you, and I know you've had a lot of concerns about basketball.

I Saw “The Martian” and Other Important Life Events

Yes, I redid my blog design. We're just going to go with it okay? Needless to say, I saw a design I really liked and wanted to try something new. Wanna know Squarespace perk #284? Since my old design was on another template it's saved under "Templates", and I can re-activate at any time, and same with this one. I don't even know if I[...]

Let’s Just Talk, Brought to You by Broken Computers

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.
