UncategorizedI'm Alive, I Promise August 1, 2012Hey y’all! Of course I planned to post much sooner….it’s amazing that I thought I would just be back to normal after a trip like that. We got back late on Sunday night and I was thinking how surprised I was that I wasn’t tired and yet I was pretty much out of commission on Monday. I was very, very sleepy and lazy. Before I knew it the day was gone without a post. First, I need to say a big thank you to all of the ladies who shared their homes with us last week! I so appreciate it and that connection reminds me of why I started this blog. Thanks to those of you who left kind and encouraging comments…that’s always so nice! I will definitely be posting many details and stories from our trip, and let me tell you, there’s a lot to tell. I really didn’t know what to expect, but it just amazed me. God really showed up as I knew He would and I’m still in awe and processing all that we learmed and all that happened. I promise that I’ll have details and photos very soon. If you follow me on instagram (lifeofsplendor) or twitter, you know that we’ve now embarked on yet another journey, so there hasn’t been much turnaround time to gather photos, process my thoughts and get a post done. We’re headed to The World’s Longest Yard Sale!!!! Have y’all heard of it? Its a 690 mile yard sale that runs from Gadsden, Alabama to Addison, Michigan on highway 127. This has been on my goal list or quite a while. We tried to go last year and it didn’t work out, but have been anticipating this trip ever since. I’m sitting in my Aunt and Uncle’s lovely mountain cabin in Tennessee. I’m using my sisters iPad for this post….I ran out of time before we left. We are all so excited about this venture! My aunt and uncle go every year and know all of the hot spots to hit. I’ve heard it’s nothing like you’ve ever seen, so I cant wait to see it and come back and share this with you lovely friends! I will be taking lots of photos. I will do a big recap post next week sharing all my favorite finds, but this week I’ll be posting some of my favorites on instagram, Facebook, and twitter. If you want to follow along, remember my social media icons over on the right. I don’t know how many posts I’ll be around or this week, but follow along to see my favorites and hang in there for yard sale and major trip details next week. I can’t wait to reconnect with you all!

Kelly @ Talk of the House says August 5, 2012 at 4:27 pm Girl, you should be exhausted!!! I am sure your trip was amazing, and we all can’t wait to hear and see more about it. Can’t believe you are doing the yardsale now. My mom would loooooove to be doing that with you. She is one lover of yardsales. I have only been one time and scored BIG – I mean real big, but I have not been back since. Figured I used up all my good luck on that one sale. Have fun and score big on the yardsales. Kelly Reply
