By NWA Day Trips I mean anywhere you can travel round-trip on one tank of gas from Northwest Arkansas. There are so many family fun activities available to us! And although NWA is growing at record speed, we don’t have everything. Fortunately, the things we do lack are usually within a few hours and a tank of gas from us. Sometimes we skip over to our neighboring states of Oklahoma or Missouri. I have already shared a couple adventures in Oklahoma, and today I am sharing another Tulsa adventure.

Five Mintue Friday: Change
The one word prompt this week: Change
Five minutes on the clock…ready…set…Go.
“Time is the measurement of change.” That was the definition that Dr. Manor stated during my Survey of the Old Testament class seventeen years ago this Fall. We were discussing Moses and YWHW.
The Measuring Sticks of Self-Worth
Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity. 1 Timothy 4:12
Last summer my daughter turned down every opportunity to go down a water slide. She allowed the fear of the unknown to hold her back. I was so shocked and proud when she had her first chance to try this summer. She boldly marched up the two flights of stairs and made her decent on the winding slide. I have never seen such bridled triumph true to her stoic personality. She repeatedly traveled down that slide with confidence!
MOPS: Because Sometimes You Just Need a Hug
It was Kid’s night at Flying Burrito. Two free kids meals with the purchase of one adult entrée. My family of four can eat for less than $10! Naturally the restaurant was bursting at the seams with young families. Really…how can you pass up such a great deal?
The Great Passion Play
One of my first memories of Northwest Arkansas was visiting Eureka Springs as a child to attend The Great Passion Play. I remember the awe I felt as the stories of Jesus leapt off of the pages of the Bible and came to life.
NWA Women Living in Faith Bible Study
I am excited to announce the kick-off for the next Women Living in Faith Bible study on September 11th! We will be meeting from 8:00-10:00 on Thursday evenings to study Beth Moore’s book David, Seeking a Heart Like His. This is open to all women in Northwest Arkansas.
Five Minute Friday: Fill
I have been so encouraged by the brave leadership of Lisa-Jo Baker. For the past four years she has hosted Five Minute Fridays. She has passed the baton to the amazing Kate Motaung. So excited for this next chapter of Five Minute Fridays!
Solving an Identity Crisis Through Captivating Heart
My sweet friend, Jamie Smith, is guest posting today. I met Jamie years ago at a scrapbooking crop night before I even knew what a blog was. We have became friends through our local bloggers’ meet-ups. She is truly a fascinating person!
Currently {Issue 4} I am Back!
Ah, Friend, I have missed you dearly! I have been on a hiatus for most of July. Being a teacher, I function best on the school calendar. I NEED MY SUMMER BREAKS! But I have to tell you, this break has just about killed me. To withhold myself from getting behind this screen and letting my fingers dance, is like trying to breathe under water.
