Back Home and How Are You, Dreams?

I just got home from being with my Gramps and Grams for two weeks. Actually, I came home Tuesday, but I've been busy blog designing instead of writing. Oh... I think we're getting the design figured out. Anyway! I had so much fun with Gramps and Grams. For the first week, it was just me who went up, and then Hunter came up for the se[...]

An Okoboji/Arnold’s Park Photoshoot + Tipsy House

Today I had a great day in Spirit Lake and Okoboji. And I crossed another thing off my bucket list: The Tipsy House! Last year listed here on #4 I went in the Tipsy House, and it was so.much.fun! Last year I also got what would become my new little headshot taken by the lakes, and so I figured I would go again this year and get some[...]

What I’ve Been Up To

I typically don't like to focus strictly on my life in blog posts unless I have a purpose behind it or pictures to show you, but I really need an excuse for a blog post right now, because guess what? I am blogging. IN THE CAR! Squarespace, you've done it again. I just now downloaded their mobile blog app, and it's so clean and so sim[...]

Summer So Far

How is everyone's summer going so far? I'm a week into mine, and while it consists of mostly lazy days, I've done a few fun things! Tomorrow I finally get to go to our local pool, and this weekend we might be going to my Grandpa and Grandma's too. I have so many good memories of summer. Last year was when I really got into blogging,[...]

Florida, Here We Come!

Sooo super excited for next week! I can't remember how much I've talked about Florida or Hunter's wish on this blog, but I find it hard to believe I haven't mentioned it at all. Anyway, thanks to Make•A•Wish we are heading down to Florida next week! It's a lot to get ready for! The purpose in this post is mainly to clarify some t[...]

Spring Break & Everything Else

I'm a little late on this, but happy spring break! Not. Okay, okay. Really, though. I'm curious to see what you all did for spring break. I abandoned my parents and went up to my Grandpa and Grandma's for a week. I always have a great time there and to be honest, it's giving me a lot of inspiration for this new series I plan to write[...]

Something Special: Car Rides | Link Up

Remember that post series I started once upon a time? There were still two posts left. It was over memories and my dreams way back when. And like I said, there were two posts left to complete it. Just because I needed a blog facelift doesn't mean I face lifted these off the face of the earth. I'm still gonna do them, just like Christ[...]

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.
