Update: This is Scott here to fill you in. You’ve all been so thoughtful and just wanted all of Tania’s readers to get an update. She went in for surgery Thursday morning at 8:30 am and got out around 12:30. The surgery was a big success! I’ll leave it to Run to Radiance to fill you in on…

How to Survive Without a Microwave
We recently had some friends over for dinner and while we were all cooking they discovered we didn’t have a microwave. I kind of forgot that not having one was weird. Want to know the reason we don’t? Surprisingly it has nothing to do with all the healthy concerns that are floating around the internet!
Choose Joy
Happy Friday friends! Without getting into too much detail, this last week has been really rough for me. I feel emotionally drained, which leads to physical and mental breakdown. There’s a reason Jesus tells us, “do not worry”—it truly is no good! So, in case anyone else is feeling stress, or down, or just could…
Young Living Essential Oils Review + Giveaway
Do you all remember Fla Vor Ice? They were these popsicles in these plastic tubes that came in all these really fun colors. There was an orange one that was supposed to taste like orange, a red one that’s supposed to taste like cherry, a purple one that’s supposed to be like grape. They came…
I’m Officially a Texan
You know those awkward questions? The ones that are supposed to be part of small chat and really only a one-word answer is expected but for whatever reason you have to give a long story of an answer? The one that gets me every time seems so simple, but is so hard for me.
Neighbor’s Table Dinner Party at West Elm Dallas
Lately Scott and I made a resolution to gather with friends, family and food around the table more. We love hosting dinner parties and having opportunities to share meals and conversations with loved ones, and both have felt called by God to spend more time and effort using our home— and our table— to love…
A Day on the Farm
You all know those “would you rather” questions? Some of them can be so gross (and hilarious!) but I feel like I can make a determination fairly easily as to which choice is the lesser of the two evils. Scott and I are huge road trip fans and I have so many memories of us…
Like a Needle in a Haystack
Avoiding Burnout
In today’s go-go-go society, burnout is a prevalent theme. We’re told “if you give it your all, you will succeed” and “success is a measure of hard work”. So it’s no wonder why so many are pushing themselves to their braking point, giving up and burning out. I can absolutely relate to this. Right now, my…
A Springtime Dinner Party
Spring has officially shown up here in North Texas and I am still rejoicing that winter is over! Spring is my absolute favorite season—I love the warm weather, peppered in with Texas thunderstorms. There’s nothing like it in the entire world, watching flowers spring forth where there was once only dried leaves and dead grass,…
A Perfect Day
This past weekend I feel like we must have hit some sort of record for the biggest swing of temperatures in the history of Dallas. On Saturday I spend the day with a dear friend wondering around the Arboretum. We walked for hours then found a patch of grass somewhat shaded by a Crepe Myrtle…
