• Giving It a Shot: VLOGGING!

    Hello Moonbeams! In case you don’t follow on social media, I wanted to share some exciting news about a new venture for Holding Moonbeams…. WE ARE VLOGGING! Since turning my social media focus toward blogging and intentional sharing about our lives as a special needs and blended family, I have really enjoyed connecting with our readers. Reading everyone’s comments makes the internet seem like a smaller place…and I love getting to know people (who I may never have otherwise met) through Instagram, Facebook, and through this blog! But one of my most favorite parts was using Instagram stories to give everyone a taste of life behind the scenes…life behind the…

  • Dear 2008 Hollyce

    Dear 20 Year Old Hollyce, Oh little Hollyce – you are so young but have such an adventure ahead of you! You just turned 20 (2008) and are 1 year out of high school. You are wrapping up your freshman year of college at Baylor University in Waco, TX. You aren’t sure what the future holds or what lessons are ahead of you – so let me give you some of the highlights of your next 10 years. You aren’t going back to Baylor this fall. God is calling you to be closer to home for reasons you can’t know yet – but I’m telling you to trust His plan.…

  • Gigi’s Playhouse LMNOP & New Goal

    Hello my moonbeams 🙂 I know you haven’t heard from me in awhile. Life with a toddler (yes I can actually say that now), 1 preteen, 1 teenager, 2 goofy dogs and a traveling husband has been hectic! With summer around the corner, we will have even more happening…which brings me to my main point….I’m going to be more intentional with blogging. I work 2 part-time jobs and while I prioritize those plus taking care of the fam, blogging gets pushed to the bottom! I am turning 30 years old in a few short weeks. I want to be more intentional with my goals, dreams, and hopes out of this…

    Guest Post – The H is For

    Happy Thursday Moonbeams community! We have just returned from Spring Break in Newport Beach with Grandma & Grandpa and are getting back into the groove and routine of our home life; post to come next week with deets from our trip! The kiddos come back tonight from a cruise with their mom and the other side of their family. Soon we will all be reunited and I cannot wait to celebrate Easter all together this Sunday. I have yet to share my guest blog post on The H is For – although some of you have read it on Facebook. So here it is…follow this link to read! Backstory – I have…

  • last week: stones, sullivans, stroller barre

    Last week …. oooof. It was one of those weeks where I wish I had those Men In Black memory eraser pens. 2 Saturday nights ago, David and I were watching Tyler and Emily play soccer in their indoor co-ed league. Side note – It is so much fun to watch these games – not only do we get to see the kiddos playing their favorite sport together, but indoor soccer is another level of intensity and strategy that you don’t get with outdoor field soccer. Anyway – as we are watching Tyler crush it and Emily play against boys that are 3x her size, David had a huge sharp pain in his left lower…

  • Type A – More Like Type A-fraid

    I used to have a blog…8+ years ago and my oh my how the blogging game has changed! I giggle looking at my college study abroad blog. Think – flowers, quotes, colored fonts, and first world millennial problems so dramatic you’ll laugh. But like I said – 8 years ago. That’s the same amount of time from your freshman year of high school to your last day of college! A lot happened in those 8 years and I’m catching up. I’m afraid to launch this blog. I’m also a perfectionist – which most tout as their “biggest weakness” in a standard interview. But it really is a negative trait!! I’m…
