Arizona was a whirlwind! 🌵 We no more arrived a Arizona was a whirlwind! 🌵 We no more arrived and I was driving my grandma to the emergency room. She’s a healthy, beautiful 86 year old but unfortunately, she broke her hip! 🚑  From the ER they took her by ambulance to the hospital and within a few short hours she was in surgery. Of course with Covid, everything felt a bit more escalated. I was alone with my grandma, the rest of my family being in the Midwest and our grandpa being a recently gained angel in Heaven! Thankfully, Brandon was in Arizona with me, waiting back at my grandma’s giving me support the support I needed while I waited in the hospital parking lot. The Covid restrictions were lifted the day before her surgery so fortunately, I was able to visit her for a couple of hours in the ER and the hospital. (Only one visitor per the AZ restrictions) I wasn’t allowed in the ambulance or in the waiting room during surgery but we do realize how fortunate we were that my grandma didn’t have to walk through this completely alone! Even the short time I could enter the hospital was a blessing. All in all she handled everything like a CHAMP! My mom flew out ✈️ on Sunday to take over for me and Brandon and my grandma is on the up and up. Thank you all for your love and support. In the scary unknown, it really was such a blessing! 💗 @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/39xZl #liketkit #LTKunder50 #LTKtravel #LTKshoecrush

Your Heart

March 17, 2020 by Anna Leave a Comment

“Your heart will always pursue what you treasure” Matthew 6:20 This season of life has given me such a reality check! It has given me the opportunity to reset, re-evaluate and figure out what I truly treasure. My list could easily be lengthy but here is what I’ve narrowed it down to. I most treasure: … [Read more…]

Changing the Narrative

May 30, 2019 by Anna 4 Comments

As of lately, weekends here in Grand Rapids are filled with friends, cocktails, food, puppies, photo shoots, lots of fun, sometimes a little work, church and whatever else life might throw out. Most importantly, weekends have been filled with friendship. God has blessed me with the greatest friends here in GR and while they certainly … [Read more…]

Taking Life by Stride in Lilly

May 15, 2019 by Anna 1 Comment

As I sat down to return to the blog after yet another hiatus, I found that my own words weren’t doing anyone any inspirational favors. I find so much personal inspiration in specific people and quotes so instead of an Anna ramble, today, I am opting to share the below excerpt from Shauna Niequist’s book, … [Read more…]

It’s Hard to Fathom Such Boundless Grace

September 26, 2018 by Anna Leave a Comment

I am currently in love with the song, “Living Hope” by Phil Wickham. Toward the beginning of the song, the lyrics say “How high the mountain I could not climb; In desperation, I turned to heaven, And spoke Your name into the night. Then through the darkness, Your loving-kindness, Tore through the shadows of my soul”. The song goes … [Read more…]

Even If…

Can we hold onto our faith, EVEN IF, the outcome looks unfavorable?! I loooooved the questions presented to us at church on Sunday morning! Through scripture and sermon, I was reminded that we cannot put our confidence in the circumstances of life, we must put our confidence in God. 100% commitment and 100% confidence in Him, … [Read more…]

“God Created You to be a Carrier of Hope” -Carey Scott

July 26, 2018 by Anna Leave a Comment

I’ve always said that I don’t want to live in a world that doesn’t believe in the power of hope. And I confess, sometimes I waiver. Sometimes I fall into the trap of believing that hope is synonymous for what Scott describes as, “wishful thinking”. Giving up can often be the easier route. I was sitting at … [Read more…]

Just Listen

July 17, 2018 by Anna 4 Comments

For those of you that don’t know, I looooove Christian music. It’s typically what’s playing in my car or around my apartment. It’s what I play when I’m working on my computer and need some noise in the background. I love the messages and the way they makes me feel. They ignite a passion all … [Read more…]
