This year brought joy, pain and growth. I am grateful for each of you. Your emails, comments, likes, shares and private messages let me know that I’m not writing in vain. It is my desire for Geeky & Sassy to be a place of faith, growth, encouragement, and fun. Two years ago I would never have imagined that I would have shared so much with you around the world. Through these years God has woven His Truths through the words {Read More}
This month has brought healing, anxiety, peace and surprises. With all of the emotions and feelings flying around I clung to the birth of Jesus. The birth of our Savior, My Savior. The One who I would not make it through the day without. Reminders of His sacrifice for me greets me around every turn in my house. I wait until New Years Eve to take down the decorations. Here are a few images of the past week…. & the {Read More}
My boring cupboards needed a pick-me-up and this weekend I pulled out the Chalkboard Contact Paper and covered two doors. I want to share with you a few tips on how to do this the easiest. I had my cupboard doors off and this worked easily. Clean surface well and allow to dry. Lay contact paper face down and score edge to fit. Line up the manufacturer’s clean edge with one side of cupboard. Mark top, bottom and opposite side. {Read More}
Have I told you how excited I am to be a Tommy Mommy? I get to review amazing books for kids and share them with you. Today I’m sharing Ruth Bell Graham’s One Wintry Night. The illustrations are gorgeous in this short chapter book that follows a boy lost in a snowstorm and hearing the story of Jesus for the first time. The entire story from Jesus’ birth through His resurrection. Although the book is geared for 4-7 year {Read More}
This year’s Christmas Challenge has been a lot of fun. I have met amazing people through my site and Instagram. A month ago I put out a call that I wanted to trade some items I have for American Girl clothing or other items. Within a Day, AdalinesNest responded. A few messages back and forth and we had traded 4 American Girl Outfits, Bath Salts, a Hand Scrub and a Candle for a leather clutch, and cutting board made {Read More}
This post was scheduled for last week, but in light of Connecticut I post-poned. I feel like any post following that tragedy is too soon, but know that I am still praying and do not take it lightly. As I sit in the coffee shop two teenagers sit down near me and the first thing I hear is a question, “Does my hair look greasy?” (I promise it’s not my hair that brought that question to mind. It has been {Read More}
I have been absent after post-poning my post for Friday. I wanted to take time to let us all rest and mourn after the loss of so many innocent on Friday. God, I pray for peace and healing for all affected families and friends in Newtown, and for our nation. With an aching heart and many tears, I leave today with a hug and some verses…. Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give {Read More}
This sweet, tender moment I caught today with my phone. One minute later I caught these as well…. Isn’t that how life goes sometimes! It’s what we do with those moments that makes an impact. Do I flip out, yell and “go all mom” on the discipline? Do I take a moment to explain to them how to resolve conflict, how they are brother and sister for life and will love each other one minute and fight the next. Will {Read More}
An update on my Christmas Challenge in our house….I’ve never been so relaxed around the holidays. I’m preparing my post to share with you what we’re coming up with. In the meantime I thought I’d share some inexpensive gifts you could make at home. Most of them contain items that you probably have around your house or can make for pennies on the dollar. Just click on the photo to go to the photograph’s source and original article. Ok, {Read More}
