Me and Magazines! {OC Family and HomeFront}

Often I write things, and my heart goes into every word, and I’m flooded with tears or laughter.
And no one says a word.
One time I was in a magazine for a hair tutorial.
And I’m recognized at the doctor’s office.
True story.

I had a great time doing this little shoot because I was helping out a friend. And I got some great tips from a make-up artist about how not to look tired when you are exhausted…

But sometimes I get to write from the heart AND lots of people get to see it!
And that’s the story with HomeFront Magazine.
Starting in February I have been able to write my little heart out for HomeFront and the magazine is just filled with awesome ideas for your family! You can view the magazine on their site or

In February I shared this really great family project and craft…

Pretty cute, huh?

To make your own you’ll need…

• Paper mache craft letters F-A-M-I-L-Y
• Drop cloth
• Spray paint
• A permanent marker

Prepare: Grab a drop cloth (we use an old sheet) and spray paint the front and back of your letters. Older children will enjoy painting but if you have small children, you may want to do this ahead of time.

Activity: Gather your family together to brainstorm in the following six categories – one for each letter in the word FAMILY. Use the permanent marker to write your ideas on the back of every letter. You’ll place the finished letters in a prominent area of your home, as a reminder to serve others in your faith community.

For the rest of the activity you’ll have to go to page 19 of the February issue of HomeFront Magazine!

I can’t wait to share more with you.
