How Hockey Nights Have Inspired Me Over the Years

Something special that's been a constant for me since middle school is time spent with my family at hockey games in Wells Fargo Arena, watching the Iowa Wild and other AHL teams play. I've written about them several times on my blog, like here or here and even here, and I've yet to fulfill my goal of going to an NHL game, but I've alread[...]

What I’ve Learned About Fulfilling Your Dreams

The tagline for my blog for awhile used to always have some form of "fulfilling dreams" in it. That's probably still sprinkled throughout some of my copy around here, who knows. I'm okay with that because I do love addressing this topic and encouraging people to follow their dreams in line with following God. It's a good thing to have dr[...]

Waiting for Your Future Spouse: Things You Should Know

Ah, this is another post I've been wanting to write forever. It's no secret that I someday hope to be married and do put a lot of thought into my future marriage/husband; I've written two letters to him here and here. I've only scratched the surface, though, of this topic and my thoughts towards it, and since this is such a big thing man[...]

You Can’t Create the Life of Your Dreams

I wonder how long you've heard this idea and perhaps, more than likely, believed it yourself. That if you want something, as long as you put in the work, you'll get it. That everything in your future and life depends on you and what you do to make it happen. That if you want to change your life, you can go ahead and do it. That if you're[...]

How Designer Fashion Taught Me to Dream Big

Ever since I was a young girl, I’ve had a fascination with fashion. You could definitely say it’s become more of a passion with age, but there was always that spark there. My mom has shown me a lot of pictures of me when I was a baby and toddler, and she always picked out the cutest outfits for me, so maybe that’s what instilled in[...]

Midnight Thoughts on the Meaning of Life

This is quite a dramatic title, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. In fact, I’m not going to lie, when I thought about what to title this post, it just came to my mind, and I swooned. It may seem a little excessive for what I want to share with you, but it’s actually perfect because I want to post some thoughts I typed[...]

Weeks of Reflection

My family took their annual trip up to Canada where they would be fishing for a whole week, and this city-loving-girly-girl took a pass on that last year and did so again this year. I did spend the two years before that going on the trip with them, and while I highly enjoyed the experience of seeing another country and the outdoors in tha[...]

Talking About Dreams and Waiting

We all have dreams, and a lot of us are not good at patience. That's me! Lately I've been wanting to do so much with my blog. I want to start making money through it. 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[...]

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.
