About 365 days of marriage

I started this blog in April of 2011. At the time, Bret and I were wedding photographers and it was a way to share how marriage is more about the day to day and so much more than the wedding day itself. For about 5 years, I blogged about the joys and sorrows of the Christian walk, marriage, work, family and friends. I’ve blogged every day since a few weeks after I started. In May of 2015, we photographed our last wedding. Now, I have become passionate about simplicity, particularly in marriage, Christianity, business, travel and life. For a number of reasons, we have become minimalists. I’ve found that having simplicity makes life so much deeper, refreshing and joyful. I hope that this blog will help others see the benefits of living simply.

Day 2811 – Little Free Library

I’m a big lover of books and reading (shocker, I know). I love sharing books, so Little Free Library is just the coolest thing ever. There are over 30 locations near me. I’ve passed a few while driving, but have never stopped. Yesterday, I had a few books to drop off and FINALLY got to take a peek inside. How cute is this??

Day 2809 – One Of The Most Important Things You Can Do For Your Business And Yourself…Networking

I’m a big proponent of personal development. One thing I see that’s a big benefit to business owners is networking. Especially certain types of networking groups. I’m a part of a great networking/brainstorming group. It’s filled with like minded entrepreneurs. I always come away with great ideas and ways I can help other people. After I finish this post, I have a list of folks to email with things that I thought of but didn’t have time to tell them about their businesses.

If you’re looking for a good networking group, know that it takes work to find a great one. It takes commitment to making it a priority to attend. It also takes following your gut and leaving one that doesn’t work for you.

Do you agree? Do you think networking is one of the most important things you can do for your business and yourself? Let me know in the comments below!

I got this shot on my way to my car. I love downtown Baltimore. πŸ™‚

Day 2808 – Today’s Library Haul

I got a great stack today! Last night, I finished After The End and had NO idea it ended on a cliffhanger! Ugh! The worst part was that the next book was just chilling at my local library! In preparing to pick it up today, I did a quick scan of my Goodreads to be read fiction shelf and found a few other books to read. I learned from my past mistake and made sure I got all three of The Passage series. I have a few others I’ve been meaning to read for a while. Can’t wait to jump into these books.

What’s in your current to be read pile? Let me know in the comments below!
