Together Herron

Oh, White House, TN. Who knew that we would ever live in a town with such a funny name? "White House, what? I've never heard of it. Oh, north of Nashville, ok." That's how it always goes. Or, we just simply say we live near Hendersonville and that works some of the time. It's been a quick three years, my goodness! I had a feeling that we wouldn't stay in Tennessee very long but you know women, they have a lot of feelings. This whole journey in White House began way back at MTSU where we met Dwayne Gibbs; he started this madness! Dwayne, Blake, and I all had classes together at MTSU and Dwayne and I were even on the debate team together with other friends in 2008. "Debate 08'," we said! We were cool, no doubt! Hahah! Short story, Dwayne married my best friend Kelsey, he invited us to sing at his church, we did, my wonderful husband became the worship pastor, we moved to Hendersonville, then White House, about a year ago we started praying abo...

I miss baking my heart out! It's a great escape you know?! I just love the semi-predictability of mixing ingredients to get a great result! Right now, there are not too many things in my life that I can control especially since our house is for sale and we hope to move to Florida sometime soon. (another blog post to follow on this madness) Of course, only God is in control but I think you know what I mean here! I just wanted to share this quick and easy idea with you! Blake's mom asked me to help her make some fondant hair bows for her granddaughter's birthday party. We found a simple tutorial online and whipped these little bows up after many failed attempts haha. It's not rocket science but it does take a few tries to figure out how to get the right size, thickness, etc. She was making them for these adorable Minnie Mouse cupcakes below. Aren't they just too cute? So simple and beautiful! She did a great job!  So, after we experimented with the origin...

It has been a while but this little guy has kept us busy! We are so thankful for the gift of Jude! You are a mover and a shaker little man! Even though it's definitely not easy, we have LOVED getting to know you and take care of you! You have taught us to remember to take time to escape every once in a while so that we are happier together and individually. Your daddy and I went on two dates in one week and it was awesome! You love to roll all over the place! There have been times where we place you in the den and you roll all the way to the kitchen! Aunt Lea Ann was watching you and she said you rolled under the coffee table and thought it was the most hilarious thing! You've enjoyed your bouncy saucer seat thingy (who knows what it's actually called) and you like your bumbo seat too! You don't like to be cuddled the same way as before; now you want to be cuddled with your head up so that you can see what's going on with those sleepy eyes.  You like momma...
