Hey Friends, I’m so sorry that Thomas and I have been away. We’re super grateful to all of our clients for being so patient. Here’s a little breakdown about what happened. Last Wednesday, I woke up, looked at Thomas and nonchalantly said “My side hurts.” Little did I know, that later that afternoon I would...
Lately, Thomas and I have been thinking very hard about our future. We’ve been making changes and taking risks and trying to figure out exactly what we want for our future and the future of our company. What we’ve decided is- there are lots more changes to come.
My favorite part? “I feel like I’m a kid who started school for the first time, and my mom bought me a whole new wardrobe. I’ve been in school for just a few months, and now I’ve already outgrown all my new clothes, and it’s time to buy new clothes again.” Very well said. I’m right there with you. Here’s to ‘NOT starting over,’ rather- just ‘starting anew.’ReplyCancel
Annie – It was great to meet you too! I hope we can see you at WPPI next year if not before!
Ati- Thanks so much for your kind words. I agree – starting anew is much better than starting over. 😉
Latrice – Thank you! You’re too sweet. 🙂 We’re so glad that we were able to connect with you at MTH2010. I hope we can meet up again sometime in Nashville. Thanks for following our journey. We look forward to following yours too!ReplyCancel
Thirteen days after I graduated from Auburn University, in May of 2007, I was offered a fabulous job. I’d be teaching at a private school and handling the school’s public relations. I was super excited. Then, on the same day, I found out that Thomas had been offered a job in Madison, Alabama. I went from...
Ok, this is my attempt at a video blog and It will be a miracle if I can get this posted and everything to work! 🙂 We were encouraged to put ourselves out there and what better way to do it than to put it in video?? We can’t hide behind pretty words or pictures....
Thomas,
We just watched this video! Thank you sooo much! You guys are awesome! We laughed when you said you were a thinker and a planner, and not so much a doer, we are the same way. I think it’s time for us to step out of the box and start “doing” too! You guys are great motivators!
Yesterday, at the Making Things Happen Intensive, my life was changed. I was humbled, impacted and moved by the amazing group of MTH2010 attendees, Lara Casey, Jeff Holt and Jeremy Cowart. Their honesty & passion revealed things in my heart that I didn’t even know were there. Lara challenged us to go home and record...
You are so right, Sarah! Push through the fear and amazing things will happen. I love this and I love that you were so open and honest. Thank you for having the courage to post this – I’m still trying to gather my own. And I have to add, Mickey is so cute! He looks like the happiest little fluff ball sleeping in your lap!ReplyCancel
Robert – You really have no idea how much that means coming from you. I actually talked to Lara about the awesome skill set you prepared me with. Thank you for helping me find my way. You have been a huge part of my story. 🙂 You’re an awesome professor, and you definitely prepared me to find my way in this oh-so-crazy world.ReplyCancel
So glad that you guys got to go to MTH, and I can’t wait to see where you two go! There is a huge community feeling to this, even with people from other cities, which continues to be the best thing ever. It holds you accountable and keeps you thinking about what you need to in order to make things happen! Can’t wait to chat more about your experience!ReplyCancel
I am so so so so SO thankful that we got to meet at MTH and girl, we are MAKING THINGS HAPPEN this year. 2010 is OUR year to step out in faith and it’s going to be an amazing ride. I’m so proud of you to post your video, isn’t it scary?? But everyone who watches it is encouraged by you!
p.s. Now I know what I was missing in my video, I need an MTH mascot. Fluffanelly is just too adorable!!ReplyCancel
Sarah,
So glad that you all were able to be a part of the MTH-Nashville event! It was neat to be in the room with another husband & wife team, wish my wife could have joined us as well!!
Thanks for the video and I know what it means to you personally to challenge yourself to do this! So you rock it!
So glad you’re feeling better. How scary! I love that you shared what you learned… very brave of you. Rest up and you’ll be back on your feet in no time making things happen all over town. 🙂
so happy and so glad you’re feeling much better!
Thanks Jessica! I am hoping to be up making things happen VERY soon. 🙂
Thank you Lydia. I am SO glad to be better too. Hoping that we’re done with doctor’s offices and hospital visits for a little while!
Sarah- We missed you Saturday and pray you are recovering quickly! You do have a very sweet husband who was SO concerned about you but did a great job for us.
Thomas- Thank you for making the wedding day fun and helping Elizabeth through her stressed out moments. I love that you were with us all day and even got to document a few “surprising” things! We can’t wait to see the pictures!!!! Take care of yourself, too! I know you are taking great care of Sarah!
Thank you so much Teresa! I am soooo very sorry that I couldn’t be there for Elizabeth and Paul’s big day. I was really looking forward to the wedding…I knew it was going to be just beautiful, and from what I’ve seen, it certainly was! 🙂
