This is one of my favorite pictures from my wedding day. I have several but for some reason I love this one. Never mind the soap dispenser and the feminine hygiene product dispenser next to the paper towels.  This was taken long before Photoshop and I Continue reading →

Celebrating Thanksliving Every Day of the Year

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional, Thoughts, Writing/ 35 Comments/ 1282

Thanksliving.  Isn’t that a great word? Our pastor preached a sermon about Thanksliving.   Autocorrect keeps trying to change that word to Thanksgiving but that’s not what I am talking about . Thanksliving is a way of living every single day as a thankful person. Continue reading →
