Hi everyone! Okay, I created this blog probably a month ago and for some reason have had a hard time getting started! I have followed my sister's blog for a few years and it has been awesome getting to know her on a different level since we don't get to talk all that much but I love her with all of my heart. I am 8 years older than her and much of our childhood was separated by me being at college.
Anyways, she has been my inspiration for starting my own blog and I'm really not completely sure what direction this will take...maybe it will just be cathartic for me to write about stuff going on...then it's out of my head now swirling around anymore. We'll see where God leads me on this! But it just wouldn't be right to start this blog and not give my lil' sis the credit for getting me going!
As you can see, my title is "Don't Save It All...". This is one of my most favorite songs ever by Avalon (my sister definitely loves songs so my title also HAD to involve a song!) and I described a bit of how I chose that title already, but I just have to add that Sis and I were able to go see Avalon in concert in September which was awesome. She frequently (compared to me!) goes to concerts but I don't very much, so it was grand.
Anyways, I'll be back here and there. Have a grand week! Oh, and that's a pic of my awesome sis and her hubby. :)
Oh, yes...I need to also add that my hubby helped me come up with my blog site name, goldenpause. We recently added an awesome Golden Retriever Puppy to our house, Marlie, along with our 3-year-old Shepherd/Lab Mix Dog named Regan. I also am working on taking a few more "pauses" in life and slowing down a bit, although God has done some of that for me because I have not recovered very well from my second of 2 back surgeries and am consequently slowed down a lot more than I like sometimes. Also, that is where "Golden Mommy" comes from. I have wanted to have a Golden Retriever for about 5 years and want to breed her eventually so this has been a big thing in my life. :)
Okay....now I'm signing off....'til next time....

Yay! Great first post :) That is a cute picture of me and Chris. When is it from? LOL. I don't remember! Avalon was awesome to see! I hope that when they come back we can see them again. It would also be fun to see Natalie, Casting Crowns, and FFH too. And you should come along and see Porcupine Tree :P Marlie and Regan are great doggies. Rae is my buddy :) Marlie will be my buddy too when I get to see her more often. When she is older then she can come visit me too!
Hey Sis!
I haven't told anyone else about this blog yet so it's just you and me, gal! :) That pic is from Dad's Jazz Event. I really want to see Casting Crowns...they are so great, and it was a blast going to see Avalon with you. I'm glad you still love Rae even though she chases your kitties...she just can't help it because they're so cute! :)
Rae is my cuddly buddy as long as she doesn't squish baby :)
