Return to Life


For those of you who stuck around, (*crickets*..any one?) you might notice some change. The most obvious? We have a new name!

When I first created my blog, I had the hardest time choosing a name. I could never pinpoint what exactly I wanted so I went with the vague but factual name: "For His Glory"

Don't get me wrong, I love the title but it just never felt like THE one so I was always playing with names in my head while I had this one sit in.

A little over a year ago, we participated in a ministry at our church called Heart and Home. The basic idea was three families gathered together for a meal (each one bringing a dish - main, side or dessert) and invite a guest family. Preferably, the guest family would be a neighbor or even a family who just visited the church the previous Sunday. Or it could be a member family who we all would like to get to know more. 

These families would gather for a meal at one of the families house and share theirs hearts. 

Whatever they wanted. 

The name of the ministry always hung to me. I loved the way it sounded together. Heart and Home.

Heart and Home.

See what I mean, it just has a ring to it.

For months... MONTHS, I wanted to change my blog title to Heart and Home but I don't like taking others ideas so I decided on not going through with it.

As I came back to trying to decide on a name, I played with different words:

Home

Hospitality

Homemaking

Heart

My blog after all was always about sharing life and recipes with everyone but I found another love. Decorating. So I wanted to start incorporating that into my blog plan (even though I haven't wrote a post in almost a year... Oops).

So how the heck do I find a name that talks about homemaking in the aspect of decor and recipes along with life thrown in it here and there??

Heart & Home

AGAIN?!?

This name doesn't want to leave me alone. But I love it! So why not use it and give credit to my inspiration? The name is so perfect for what my blog. 

Sharing my heart. The things I love. In my home.

So the name is here to stay. Welcome to Heart & Home.

Sneak Peek: I have now begun designing a logo for our new look using paint and possibly Word but I don't know yet.

Have you ever struggled with finding a name for your blog? How do you handle when a name stalks you for nearly a year?

I am linking up with A Little R & R.
