Killing Monsters: Physical Perfection

8 Apr

About a month ago I wrote a Killing Monsters post but it wasn’t finished. Now, in my defense, it was the first one and I didn’t really realize at the time where it was all going to go. Then God moved and Killing Monsters exploded beyond what Ris and I expected. That first post was [...]

#TBT Redefined

28 Mar

For the last week my head and my heart have been turning one subject over and over. It’s a messy and uncomfortable process of examining my beliefs, where those beliefs came from and holding them up to what God says about the subject to see where they align… and where they do not. While this [...]

Super Quick Starbucks Style Iced Mocha

10 Mar

I am a big fan of chocolate. Duh. I be female. But add it to one of my other great loves, coffee, and you have the stuff of dreams in my opinion. I spent several years getting up at 3:00AM to go work the opening shift at my local Starbucks and that often included the [...]

Killing Monsters: Banning the Beast

8 Mar

Today I have the honor of having my sweet friend, Jacqueline Fox, guest post here on Beautifully Chaotic. I hardly have words for what you are about to read, I’m making a poor introduction… the best I can do is to say: Brave. Beautiful. Bold. Brutally Real.   Last week, a friend explained I should [...]

Killing Monsters: The Profile Picture

5 Mar

There’s a movement happening on Facebook the last two days, I don’t know if you’ve seen it but it was started by a good friend of mine, Heather. She wrote an article for Destinyinbloom.com called Pretty. Go read it, it’s amazing (watch the video too- phenom!). As part of her article Heather asked some of [...]

Throwback Thursday: I’ll Hope for You…

28 Feb

Here is the very first post I wrote for DestinyinBloom.com. I wrote it back in 2009 so it’s a little rough around the edges but then again… I don’t know that all my writing isn’t (and may always be) a little rough! ; ) I thought it would be fun to start re-posting my oldies [...]

Harlem Shake: Motherhood Edition

23 Feb

Haha! From my friend Val and I (and our children) to you…hope it makes ya smile!  

Everyday Supermodels

22 Feb

Last week we had some high winds here in the DFW area. I was running errands and my hair kept whipping around me as I went from my car to the stores and I laughed to myself that this must be how Supermodels feel. The thought caught in my brain and kept turning so when [...]

Chicken and Dumplings

17 Feb

    Chicken and dumplings… one of the ultimate comfort foods. It may not make a very pretty picture but it sure does make a happy tummy! This is one of those meals that takes a while but is very easy and a lot of that time it takes the soup is simply simmering away [...]

I missed it…

12 Feb

It’s not often I regret something but last week I posted a status on Facebook that sitting here a week later and looking back I think I really ‘missed the boat’ on this one…. I posted about how awesome Beyonce’s halftime Show was. The conversation online continued and I mentioned how much I enjoyed it [...]
