A Prayer About 7th Grade

Dear God, Well, there's only a few weeks of summer left. I'm ready for school this year. Some of that is just excitement, but some of that, also, is a let's get this first day over with attitude. Why? Well, here are my concerns. I'm really nervous about friends. You know my situation right now, God, and You know what I fear with my[...]

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! Summer isn't officially over yet, but it's close. School starts soon, and m[...]

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[...]

Those Christian Bloggers

I feel like Christian bloggers take a lot of crap in the blog world. Which big surprise - they take crap in the real world too. I feel like it always comes from the "big bloggers" too. You know, those lifestyle bloggers who write about their life, blogging, fashion, and just about anything with that sense of humor lots of them have.[...]

Peace

Last night Hunter, Amanda and I walked my fave gravel road and took some more pics! I like having my picture taken, okay. Enjoy the backgrounds that I made Amanda include, and then I'm going to talk about other random things like why I am carrying two water bottles. They were for Amanda and Hunter. I don't drink water. ;D I do, but o[...]

It’s a Beautiful Life

There's a post idea I've had in mind for awhile, but I didn't come back to it until tonight. My cousin Amanda came down to my house with Gramps and Grams, and they'll be here until Friday. Tonight Hunter, Willy, me, and Amanda (who is now the new recruit of my photography team, that's not a good thing) went out to take photos. I saw[...]

Yay for August and Checking in on This Year’s Goals

Wow, August already! This summer has gone by really fast, and it's been a lot of fun with its fair share of trials. Today I thought for a post I would look all the way back at my goals for 2015 and see how they're doing. I'm past the half year mark anyway, so it's about time to check in! Get Published: no I've been slower on the edi[...]

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[...]

What I Really Don’t Like

I'm very thankful to all the people who read yesterday's post and Dad for giving me a shout out on his Facebook. A lot of you found it to be really good, and thank you for your nice comments. 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.
