The electrician trade – as wonderful as it is – has not been kind to my husband’s jeans. I think I’ve patched three pairs within just the last few months! I used my sewing machine at first; however, my machine struggled with the material and when the first patch didn’t hold (it was honestly in …

Providers
I am so thankful for the two providers in my life -- God and my husband Alexander. Last month, Alexander was switching jobs and he took a short break in between to catch up on some house projects. As a result, our budget for the month was a little tighter than normal, including our food …
“NO”
There’s truth in the idea that the hardest word to learn to say is “No.” Really, it shouldn’t be that hard, right? Two little letters, but they can literally carry life-altering decisions in their combined voice. I had to say, “No,” this week. And it wasn’t easy. If you know me in person, you probably …
Food for Thought
Runner Thoughts Some days, let’s be honest, I just don’t want to run. No good reasons and no reasonable excuses. I think that more often than not, I’m just so focused on all of the other things I need to get done – craft projects, writing projects, general house tasks, etc. – that running seems …
And So Summer Break Begins
Long time no write! I apologize to all of my faithful readers, because I have most definitely not been a faithful writer. I won’t offer any promises for the future, but at least I’m blogging today! A large part of my being able to blog is that summer break has started for the Robinson household! …

Life Lately

I shouldn't be complaining because I'm honestly very thankful for how God is using Alexander and I in the church, yet I am definitely ready for a little Christmas break. Craft time, here I come! (Meaning, I still have to finish making Christmas presents....oops!) So …
A Christmas Tree Story
It's starting to snow outside -- a very fine, light, dusty snow. We haven't had much snow here yet this year, so every little bit we get is a treasure. Fall here in Casper was long and gorgeous, but now the colder temperatures have hit and the weather is getting a little more "Christmassy." We …
Weekends in the Wilderness
When Alexander and I first started developing a "more-than-just-friends" relationship, we quickly discovered that we shared a passion for camping and hiking in God's great outdoors, especially in the Rocky Mountains. As we progressed in our long-distance relationship, many of our days together were spent on some sort of hiking adventure -- last May we visited …
Simply Run
Apparently it’s going to take a while for me to get into a good routine of posting on a regular basis. So much has already happened since I last blogged, and I’m not sure where to begin. Beautiful drives, hikes, the new home, exercise, food…. So I guess I’ll start with something that’s been on …
