Time for a Change

So my blog and I thought it was time for a change! This blog used to be for "The Williams" but it cuddenly occured to me that there was only one of the Williams using it...ME! I can't honestly even tell you if Brant, the dear hubs, has even looked at it before! So, now, this is my blog - just for me - I even changed the name! If you're a little curious about the name, check out the column on the right and you can see what "Grabbie" is all about.

Well since this is all about me, I thought I would give you a taste of me - a glimpse into the inner workings of my soul. I just turned 26 and I've been married for 6 months. I have four nephews and a neice: Mason, Connor, Ethan, Aeson and Kate! I love them all dearly. Brant and I live in Mansfield, Tx. For those of you who don't live in Texas, or don't know anything about Texas, Mansfield is just south of Dallas/Fort Worth. We love our little town of about 50,000 and we're really close to my family (although I don't think hubs always loves being so close to them...oops!).

Some of my favorite things in life are: shopping, spending time with hubs and being a wife, playing with Dax, kids, boating and tubing on the lake, being outdoors, playing the piano, working puzzles, scrapbooking with my mom and sister, playing with my sister's babies, road trips, sitting by a warm fire on a cold day with a great cook and hot cup of coffee, movies, and of course growing closer to my Lord each and every day.

I grew up in Texas in a loving, Christian home, but I've definitely turned my back on the Lord before. But Praise Him that He loved still and welcomed me back with open arms. He saved me from the pits of dispair and from the curses of the life I once led. He is truly my Redeemer and Savior. My biggest dreams in life are to be a Proverbs 31 wife and mother - to serve my family as I serve my Lord. To me, success is measured by joy and happiness by laughter. My ultimate goal is stand before Him and hear "Well done, my good and faithful child."

Much love,
Ashley
