Some Faves

Meet some of my favourites!

Kisses from Katie 
A book that will change your life.

What would cause an eighteen-year-old senior class president and homecoming queen from Nashville, Tennessee, to disobey and disappoint her parents by forgoing college, break her little brother’s heart, lose all but a handful of her friends (because they think she has gone off the deep end), and break up with the love of her life, all so she could move to Uganda, where she knew only one person and didn’t even speak the language? 
A passion to follow Jesus. 

While in a huge warehouse style book store looking for children's books, I decided that I wanted a book to read but one that was a great story and would also challenge my heart. I only had a few minutes so I prayed and asked Holy spirit lead me to my perfect book for right now. This is the book he brought me to and oh my, has it ever changed me from the inside out. That was months ago and I still reflect back on Katie's selfless ways and feel inspired to dig deeper and get out of the way more so God can be in the spotlight.

She Does Justice
Shop with a cause.

"She Does Justice is an advocate for those who need one. It is a space where organizations who are working for the good of others are recognized. It is a community of people who want to show love to the 'least of these'; a place where we strive to show those in need that they are known and loved."

"When we started the process of adopting our daughter from Africa, I started selling handmade items as a fundraiser. The shop was far more successful than we ever anticipated and have watched it continue to grow."

I first found Megan on Instagram and just loved her feed. There is something so very genuine and kind about her and all she posts. With her big heart and her passion for adoption, you can't help but be swept up in the beautiful things God is doing in and through her.

Bethel TV
The only TV I need.

I just can't get enough of the message that God is good and He is moving in supernatural ways today. Bethel is full of worship that always lifts Him high! I love learning by watching the conferences that Bethel puts on. I dream of one day going to a conference there!

Edens Garden
100% Pure Essential Oil

After having tried a variety of essential oils brands, Edens Garden is where my loyalty lies. They are kinda a no frills company compared to some of the MLM oil brands out there and I like that. The price is low and the quality is high.

I use essential oils each day for a variety of home uses and also in my beauty products. When one of my boys bumps their head or scrapes their knees, I reach for a roller bottle with oils instead of traditional medicine.

KariO Designs
Inspiring and creative Etsy Shop.

In Kari's shop you'll find a variety of unique and creative products, from hand stamped jewelry to crocheted fedora hats. If you like to create, you will enjoy her patterns, jewelry box displays and crochet hook stands. There is seriously something for everyone in her shop!

Kari is the other half behind Cedar & Honey, our essential oil jewelry shop, which means I get to work closely with this creative beauty! I highly recommend anything this woman makes as I know she stands behind her work and high quality is always a must.

Wonderfully Unusual
life as a single adoptive and foster mom


"I'm a single, Christian, mom. My two daughters - Raine & Athena - came to me as foster children in the spring of 2011. September 2012 we became an official family through adoption."
This is the blog of a uniquely gifted friend of mine. Her heart for the orphan is much bigger than her desire for the regular things in life - what a rare find. When we lived just a short drive from each other and spent time together each week I would always leave feeling inspired, motivated and grounded to the call that is on my life. Bobbie is a dreamer and lives the daily testimony that nothing is impossible for our God. Now we live hrs apart so I must settle for my weekly dose in her beautiful blog where she shares her journey in a raw and humorous way. 
Bobbie's shop, Believe Bistro is where I get my favourite hot drink, Earl Grey Creamed tea!
