Us Presslys have officially been at this marriage thing for a whole year! This past Sunday Justin and I celebrated our one year anniversary together. It was a nice, relaxing day filled with surprises, sunshine, juicy steaks and cake! My favorite part of the day was sitting together on the back porch stuffing our faces, […]
This past weekend I needed a heart check, big time. Sometimes I get caught up in the wanting and striving and the always needing more. My mind wants to move through life stages much faster than our bodies or our bank account will allow. I see other couples that Justin and I admire and I find […]
Feeling unworthy of Christ has always been an obstacle of mine. The thought that the Lord of all Creation gave up his son for me nearly brings tears to my eyes every time. Why me? I’m not that great. I can be lazy, I can think ugly thoughts and I don’t put forth enough effort for […]
I’ve been able to learn a lot so far in 2015. Isn’t it crazy how you can learn so much in such a little amount of time? You can literally feel like a whole new person a week from now. It’s kind of a freeing and terrifying thought at the same time. There have been […]

November 17 is World Peace Day. It is also Homemade Bread Day. Today is Rachel McAdams birthday. Most importantly, November 17, 2014 is also officially my six month mark as Mrs. Pressly. The past six months have been a whirlwind of changes; overwhelming and scary, but mostly exciting and delightful. Justin and I have grown […]
So, I am a week into my marriage devotional. I will admit that it has been tough to get up an hour early every day to sit with the Lord. I have had a mental battle every day while I lay in my warm, snuggly sheets over actually how important it is that I get […]
So, it’s no shocker that I haven’t been very good at regularly posting to my blog. I have fallen into the “every day’s so busy” conundrum (it’s really a word!). In all actuality, I have plenty of time to write a blog post! The hours that I spend watching Scandal or the Voice could be used […]
Since returning home, it feels as if Justin and I haven’t stopped! From little projects around the house, to people visiting to taking the boat out- it never seems to slow down. We have loved every second of it though. It’s been so awesome to play hostess to our friends and family as a new wife […]
