cutest picture ever. thanks for the scripture snack too!
AW! I wake up to find this lovely post...thanks so much Carissa! You're SO sweet. :-)
I love your photo--very precious. Your expression is priceless...so sweet.
Thanks for making my day--and I'm SO glad you joined! This was a wonderful post.
Love,
--Hannah
Really, thank you so much. This really made my day and meant soooooo much to me. You. Are. Awesome. :-)
Just love that beach photo Carissa. Looks so free spirited and full of life! Looks like it should be blown up and hung over your bed or something! A couple questions for you today: 1. I seemed to have stopped receiving your blog on my feed...I hadn't seen any posts from you for days, then I wander over here, and you've been writing and I've been missin' out :-( Any ideas why or how to fix? Also, I'm asking a few veteran bloggers about BlogFrog. Every heard of it? I just started a new community over there (it's a community site that integrates your blog but w/ lots more opportunity for interaction - LOVE the idea) and am looking for some feedback. Do you have any suggestions for making it more appealing/approachable? What do you think would attract people to the concept? I thought it sounded right up your alley b/c you're a huge commenter and get lots of comments back, so you obviously like the interaction of the blog world (not just the stalking) which is what BlogFrog is all about. Anyway, when you get a chance, check it out (you can get to my community via my homepage) and let me know what you think! I'd appreciate honest feedback! Have a great weekend Carissa. Off to get ready for the Tea Tavern!
What a sweet, lovely pic! Happy Friday Carissa!

Are you kidding me??! Cutest photo EVER. You guys are such a cute couple. I need to join in on this! I love Aspire, and recently started following.
Carissa,
Hope you have a wonderful weekend and got a chance to check out that blog link on my blog. Wanted to let you know that even though we're the same age I find myself looking up to you as well. I hope I can eventually be half the mama and wifey that you are so great at. It is obvious even through your blog that it is a God given talent of yours.
And I absolutely love that picture of you and Kelly. I loveee pictures most when they're from when love is young and spontaneous. It is a beautiful picture of you two, I hope you have it framed somewhere.
I'll have to check out Aspire. Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
what a beautiful picture! I love it! Have a great weekend Carissa!!

carissa...thanks girl for stopping by my blog! that's way cool that you grew up in the SF bay area. We've been going back every summer for 6 weeks at a time and each time my heart longs to move back but like you said it's way too expensive. However, God has made it clear to us that Charlotte is where he wants us for the here and now. i have fallen in love with the south, the people and the culture here. but i will always be a california girl!
btw. we'll be heading down to charleston the 2nd weekend of may with some friends! i can't wait! looking forward to seeing the charm of a city charleston is. getting my camera ready for great photo opps!
