If you are new around here I would absolutely love to welcome you to My Life in Pages - My Lifestyle & Journaling blog. I've been blogging since 2015/2016 and it has been such a wonderful experience to share my journey and to connect with my readers and followers. Ever since I was a young girl I loved to write; I would write short little stories in my notebooks or write about my day in my cute, Tiffany-blue diary (it was the cutest! It had a hamster with a big, pink bow and bright, blue glasses on the cover).
This will be such a fun way for us to connect and to get to know each other. 
Like I previously mentioned, writing has just been a wonderful outlet for me ever since I was a young girl. Journaling was a big stress reliever for me in college and later during my season of grief with infertility. I had such an amazing transformation with journaling that I knew I needed to share it with others, and that is when my blog was born. It became another level of healing for my own grief journey and it has helped many women with their own personal struggles as well.
It wasn't until just recently that my blog went through a little transformation of its own. As much as I love to share and educate other women about journaling and personal growth, I felt like there was something missing within my blog and my social media presence. I wanted to bring in more of my lifestyle and adventures with my readers and followers. This is when I went to my journal to brainstorm ideas out on how I wanted level up my blog...what were the next steps, what new things I wanted to share, etc. That's when I got the idea that my blog really needed a name! My Life in Pages: A Lifestyle & Journaling Blog with Jenna was created with the help of some of my sweetest followers over on Facebook.
I love how anytime you embark on a journey, there are always going to be twists, turns, and pivots. There's no straight path; it's winding and sometimes unexpected things throw us off our path. Overall the journey is beautiful though with so many experiences and memories and opportunities. That's what I desire to encompass into my blog for you - a place where you can come and feel inspired and encouraged along this journey of life. If you want to stay up-to-date with my blog, I'd love to welcome you to subscribe so you don't miss out on anything!

One of my favorite parts about blogging is getting to know you, my sweet reader. Share with me in the comments 3-5 fun facts about you! I can't wait to read them!
Here are 5 fun facts about me to get us started:
1. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in February 2024. It honestly was a blessing in disguise as I had been praying over my health for months. It's been a bit of a learning curve, but I've been viewing this new lifestyle as an adventure to learn and to explore new recipes!
2. I love drinking tea. Earl Grey is my absolute favorite. It's even better with a gluten-free raspberry, white chocolate scone, or a gluten-free Vanilla Almond Biscotti (for all my fellow Celiacs out there). I found both recipes on Pinterest.

3. Reading is my absolute favorite hobby. I could read for hours...especially if it is a cozy mystery, historical fiction, or a contemporary romance novel. I'm currently reading the Cleopatra Fox Mystery Series - highly recommend if you love a good, historical mystery series.
4. I'm a dog mommy. I have two English Springer Spaniels - Zoey & Lily. If you follow me on Facebook you have probably already met my girls! They both are super sweet girls. Zoey loves to snuggle on the couch and Lily loves to play with her stuffed animals. We love going to our favorite park every week for a little outing. They are also super obsessed with birds!!
5. I love to travel! The travel bug bit me when I was 14 and I went on a mission trip with my church to southern France. My favorite places I have visited have been Northern Ireland, Greece, North Carolina, and Victoria B.C. My husband and I love to go on road trips together too - our latest adventure was a road trip to Yellowstone National Park.
