A 20th High School Reunion (but…not mine đź‘€)

July 1, 2025 By Tamera Alexander

Happy July 1st! 183 days are left in 2025. You're welcome. When our daughter Kelsey asked if I wanted to travel with her to Colorado for her 20th high school reunion—make it a mother/daughter trip—I purchased my ticket in record time!

$20 Bill from Heaven

March 15, 2022 By Tamera Alexander

Ever had one of those moments when the veil between this world and the next seems to lift ever so slightly, and you feel a "hug" from Eternity?  That happened to me in November 2014 with a $20 bill, of all things. And God kindly reminded me of that gift again when I ran across that $20 bill in my drawer this weekend.

It's been a while since we've played this— Describe the last three photos on your cell phone(it could be a photo you've taken or maybe a screenshot, whatever, just the last three) And no, I didn't go look at my last three pics before deciding to do this.

Colors of Truth Audiobook GIVEAWAY

May 4, 2021 By Tamera Alexander

If you love listening to audiobooks then today's post is for you! I'm giving away FIVE audiobooks of Colors of Truth, a Carnton novel. The fabulous Kate Rudd narrated this book and she does a marvelous job. She has such a great voice and doesn't do weird intonations when she reads the male characters, which some narrators do. A pet peeve of mine. : } How to enter to win 1 of 5 … [Read more...]
