Story: Politically Correct?

I'm not one for politics. I was in second grade when Bush and Dukakis went head to head. Our school set up voting booths and we were to cast our ballots at lunch time. I was entirely set on voting for Dukakis - he was the more handsome of the two and in my opinion, that was good enough grounds for running the country. However, just before we were excused for lunch, our teacher announced that whoever won the election, their name would be on our spelling test later that week. I quickly changed my vote to Bush. Yes. Fickle. --- It was the morning of June 28th and, from what my husband says, a historic moment for our country. On that morning, the Supreme ... More

The Story of Stephanie + Ryan

I definitely need to get a photo of these two ... because they are as beautiful as their story. Both so sweet, both so in love with the other. We met over the summer and they could barely get their story out they were so excited.  Ryan and Stephanie got married last weekend and shared this story at the reception.

The Story of Stephanie + Ryan In 2006 Ryan bought a home in North Scottsdale. A nice home, in a nice community, surrounded by very nice neighbors... Who were all very old. So when he heard that the person looking at ... More

The Neighborhood Dirt – LIVE

Though the air outside was chilly, the Town Hall was cozy and filled with story listeners - several who have been coming for 12 years to hear the tales. I'll be honest - I would have loved to have told the virginity story again ... however, this was a different kind of crowd. So instead, I decided to debut The Neighborhood Dirt. And since we had a grandfather and two grandmothers in tow, Michael was able to capture it on film (with ... More

The Story of Kristen + Justin

I met Kristen and Justin at Starbucks. When I walked in they were sitting quietly and comfortably together, both reading something... and I don't know what it was about them... they just looked so cozy and calm. We did the "Is that you?" hesitating glance that you do when you meet someone in person whom you only have met via email and I was happy they were the couple I was there to meet. I was touched when Kristen told me she had been reading my blog for a while and her excitement for having their story told was precious. They are both involved in Young Life and both exceptional people with solid hearts of faith. They were just married Saturday ... More
