  1. I love your blog! I grew up in Charleston, SC just North of HHI. I know you had a blast. I too, carry my camera wherever I go, and have since I was in my teens : ) I love your new camera stamp, I want one soooooooooooo badly.

  2. My family always inspires me to be a better person. I am far from where I want to be, but am on the road to get there.

    On a second note, my family & I are on a trip this week. My 2 year old daughter was TERRIFIED of the ocean. She conquered her fear, went in & LOVED it! I am so incredibly proud of her! 🙂

  3. O M G !!
    That sounds like a fantastic weekend! Have fun!
    I can’t wait to see what inspiration comes from the
    sweet ladies who (in)courage me everyday! 🙂

  4. Shine is my word, every day i try to let God’s love and word shine through me to others and be an example to all who see.
    TheRace I pray each day when my time has come to leave this world I can say like Paul “i have finished the race I have fought a good fight”.

  5. Can you believe I’ve never had red velvet cake? I’m going to have to try it.

    The Hilton Head getaway sounds FAB.U.LOUS. So jealous. Have a blast, can’t wait to hear what you ladies cook up for us.

  6. Those two words, Hilton Head. My husband and I met on Hilton Head, we then both lived on Hilton Head for three years,( he lived there longer, he lived there when we met) and now we visit once or twice a year. The South, The Low Country, The ocean. It TOTALLY inspires me.

  7. cute wee bag …perfect for sewing things…as for inspiration…..I think we inspire each other…
    I love the way my son lights up a room~God has a way of inspiring us to be our best by allowing us to be in the presence of wonderful children who can light of a room with their laugh with out trying just `because’ ..then we can relax and go about the buisness of allowing our God gifts to bubble forth…
    I quilt & sew & homeschool & do my best to be present to inspire my family to be their best…

  8. red velvet cupcakes are my favorite!!! but that jar of taffy looks pretty inviting too! 🙂

    inspiring me today? my kiddos & ticking things off the to do list (“spring” cleaning is in full effect over here)

  9. just placed an order thru (in)courage….LOVE that website! have a great time this weekend….can’t wait to see what you ladies scheme up!

    most inspiring to me…..my mom! strong, courageous, beautiful, tender, selfless, intelligent….and always so full of love!

  10. Rain….after a long period of hot dry weather it has been gloomy and dark around here. The change is inspiring. Instead of inspiring me to do a bunch of stuff it is inspiring me to sit still, drink a latte and a look around me. Life is inspiring when we slow down to look at it.

    Another thing inspiring…the leather cuff my pastor’s wife had on the other day from your store. Hello! Didn’t know you could make those for girls! Love.

  11. Your “drawn to pink” really caught my eye, as did your description of (in)courage ladies. What inspires me? The widowed women of Mfangano Island in Kenya who trek to a nearby lake to get water for their homes and to do their wash. I love to see the joy in their eyes when they participate in building a new home! Thanks for reminding us how important inspiration is – and thanks for being an inspiration.

  12. lovely beso bag… LOVE THE FABRIC!
    YUMMY… red velvet cupcakes!
    i’ve been wanting to get back into art journaling… but have had a block… i came across this picture last night and it’s opened up a whole new world for me and completely inspired me… it’s so beautiful and so simple at the same time. The colors are amazing… I can’t wait to start my new journal this weekend.

    Lisa, you have a wonderful weekend with the (in)courage ladies

    peace and love!!

  13. I would like to be inspired by that cherry taffy! No, really, I am inspired by a friend who is handling some challenging times in her life with such grace and calm. I’d like to be like that myself.

  14. inspirations: my daddy, my mama, my sister, my whole dear family, and all my wonderful friends. but also:

    i wouldn’t be surprised if you already know about TOMS shoes and what they do, but if you don’t you should check them out. it’s a really cool business/relief program. and they have the most fun shoes you’ve ever seen. check ’em out and tell other people about them!

  15. 1. I need that sketch me app, that’s so cool!
    2. That bag is darling!
    3. Not feeling very inspired today. I’m kind of in a blah slump these last couple of day. Need to read my Bible.
    4. Will you be at Relevant10?

  16. Hi inspiring me today… The cool weather; the love I feel from dear Friends; and Gods grace!

    Have a great time with in courage! You ladies are wonderful! Blessings for a fruitful and refreshing time together!
