The Nothing and Everything Post

Holy no posts anymore. It's not that I've been lazy or even a lack of motivation - I just chose not to post because I've been working on the design of my blog. Let me clarify that: not the actual blog design - not yet anyway. I'm redoing all the images for my blog posts. They never matched my "brand" so I'm redoing them. As much as I[...]

Back to School

After an awesome week with my Gramps and Grams and cousin Amanda, I went with my good friend to shop for the weekend! We didn't get as much as we normally did, but we got what we needed and wanted most, and that was our most successful trip on those terms!

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[...]

Well today, I don't really have anything intelligent to say except for what you heard yesterday. So I looked at my list of writer's block ideas[...]

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.
