Each year seems to go by faster than the last. And as each year passes, I am continually reminded how blessed I truly am and how much I have to be grateful for. 2015 has been a good year — a really good year. Full of experiences, it’s been a year where I am thankful… Continue reading {A Heart Full of Thanksgiving}

{Farm Life + Scenes from the Last Harvest}

October 18, 2015October 18, 2015 AngelaLeave a comment

This weekend was a big moment in my life. It was the last harvest on our family farm. My parents will be moving to town in the next few months, which is so exciting for them. My dad has put in years of hard work, and it’s time for a break and to have less… Continue reading {Farm Life + Scenes from the Last Harvest}

{A Helping Hand}

September 3, 2015 AngelaLeave a comment

Today I was reminded of how important it is to help someone when they are in need. When walking in the East Village over lunch, my friend and I passed a young male. He had to have been high school age, which made me wonder why he wasn’t in school. I saw him ask the girl… Continue reading {A Helping Hand}

Now that I am an adult, I get very excited when it’s time for the Iowa State Fair! Growing up in the far northwest corner of the state, my family ventured to the Clay County Fair every year in Spencer, so it wasn’t until a few years ago that I finally experienced the Iowa State… Continue reading {Just Call Me a Professional Chef}

It has been way too long since I have blogged, so I have to apologize for being so silent on here! The last month has been crazy busy with starting a new job and taking over as President of AMA Iowa, which hasn’t left for a lot of free time to just sit down and write.… Continue reading {Life Lately}

{Embracing Joy}

July 20, 2014July 20, 2014 Angela4 Comments

I have always lived life with the perspective of the glass being half full. Living with this mentality translates into many more moments full of joy that may look otherwise if my perspective was different and the glass was half empty. You can’t always control your situation, but you can always control your perspective! In Thessalonians… Continue reading {Embracing Joy}

{A Weekend Back Home}

May 22, 2014January 4, 2015 AngelaLeave a comment

This past weekend I made the trip to Northwest Iowa for a few big events! The biggest event I went back to celebrate was my (gasp!) ten year high school reunion. I can hardly even believe it! It also happened to be Tulip Festival, which worked out quite nicely as I was able to see… Continue reading {A Weekend Back Home}

{Eatery A}

May 11, 2014January 4, 2015 AngelaLeave a comment

Recently I had the fabulous opportunity to attend the soft opening of Eatery A with one of my girlfriends. And what an experience it was! You can’t go wrong with all you can eat from the menu for free (I think we tried at least five different dishes) and two free drinks. Best. Night. Ever!… Continue reading {Eatery A}

This weekend was completely full of friends and fun, and I absolutely loved it. There is nothing better than trying to soak up every weekend moment surrounded by some of my favorite people.

This Christmas season has been busier than ever as I have been immersing myself in all the fun activities that happen during the month of December. Almost a whole month has flown by, and I haven’t even managed to get a post up. I guess that means I am having fun! It feels like Thanksgiving… Continue reading {Full of Joy: Holiday Happenings}
