Our first week home …

Posted in Ramblings on February 03, 2012

Well, we’ve been home a full week and it’s been a beautiful chaos. I packed a suitcase on January 5th and drove to Knoxville, TN for a weekend away with 6 of my best girlfriends. I returned home almost three weeks later with a newborn. I am still processing it all and am anticipating it [...]

The reason I’ve been silent:

Dearest readers and friends, I am so excited to finally be able to share why I have been missing these past few weeks … Tuesday, January 10th I was sitting in a movie (Twilight – during “the scene” no less!) when I noticed my girlfriend’s phone lighting up. I looked over to see Corey’s number [...]

Looking back, looking forward:

{image via apartment therapy} This time last year I shared my 2011 goals/dreams on The Creative Mama. Their website is currently being updated so I’m unable to link to my article, but I was able to find the list still living on my computer. I’ll admit, I revisited the list practically never after February, but [...]

Our Christmas – 2011 (and how I’m currently obsessed with not killing the clutter)

Posted in Ramblings on December 27, 2011

Christmas this year was extra special because the entire Cudzilo family got to be together. When you have 5 boys, 3 wives, 3 different cities, babies, jobs and more it’s incredibly difficult to all be together. This is especially true when one of the brothers (the one I’m married to) works most holidays. But, not [...]

Merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Inspired by me.

(How’s that for a title? Ha! ; ) I still receive comments from the teaching series I did for MCP last summer (6 steps to go from a hobbyist to a professional photographer (which can be read here, if you’d like)). Just this morning I received another comment and I clicked over and read the [...]

Story 1: Weekends at Windy Gap

Posted in Ramblings on December 06, 2011

I’m not sure whose idea it was, but near the beginning of our freshmen year at the University of Tennessee a bunch of us decided to start volunteering during our free weekends at one of our favorite camps. It was a Young Life camp called Windy Gap, tucked just perfectly in the Blue Ridge Mountains [...]

The Stories That Define Me

Posted in Ramblings on December 05, 2011

I’ve been thinking recently about the chapters in my life that have really shaped me into the person I am today. All of the chapters of my life have shaped me into the person I am today, I suppose, but there are quite a few that really impacted me and those are the ones I’ve [...]

A small shift, a lighter load and a bigger impact

Posted in News, Ramblings on November 18, 2011

. If you don’t like how things are, change it. You’re not a tree. -Jim Rohn. It’s late and I am exhausted. My husband is sleeping soundly next to me and I am eager to join him. But, I want to write a little something before heading off to Dreamland. Writing always seems to help [...]

The anatomy of a dada coming home:

Posted in Ramblings on November 15, 2011

Once we’ve received the call letting us know he’s on his way home we typically wait for him in the front yard or the living room. She usually spots his truck first. Then he’ll walk up on the porch. She’ll hear the opening and closing of the mailbox. And, then the jingling of his keys [...]
