My husband, Brad, and I have taken a move to Thailand and, boy, has it been a long time coming! There have many things to iron out before making the move, and one of those things (the most important, of course) were finding a home for our cats - shown below. There were plans to take them with us on our move, but God directed us to leave them here in their home country. After making that decision, we are glad to say everything else went smoothly. Christ has been in the center of it all and we wouldn't have made it this far without Him.

​

I'd like to share our times traveling through writing and painting (being creative is one of my gifts!) Going from place to place has always been a passion of mine and I enjoyed painting WAY before I decided to start selling my work. The writing, well, I've always dabbled in writing fantasy short stories and created random worlds, and to be honest, I have WAY too many started stories and not enough finished ones. Looking back now, God was always at work in my life, before I even decided to choose Him to be my Lord and Savior. 

​

When I chose Jesus, my life just made sense and the direction I was going led me to all of these wonderful adventures. It led me to marry my best friend, Brad, and move all across Florida to follow His will for our lives. 

​

Once we've moved to our seventh, yes seventh, place to live within five years, we grew our family from zero cats to two - Clip Clop and Ferguson - and our hearts ached for reaching the lost (those who aren't followers of Christ.) We prayed and kept pursuing God, and we landed at our eighth house with a clear calling to go and make disciples (Matt 28: 18-20.)

​

As we go through this process, I want to encourage and inspire you by jotting down my thoughts and sharing my paintings. In the last ten years, we've been to Nicaragua (multiple times), Scotland, England and Thailand and visited many states in the U.S.
