Stephanie Ackerman

Stephanie describes herself as …a  “Simply Complicated” girl….A girl who loves the simple things and most of the time complicates them, in a good way.

She is  an ordinary girl living an extraordinary life where she gets to do what she loves for a living.

A regular girl who loves GOD, family, friends, home, neighbors, my kids school & the teachers who teach there & the volunteers who volunteer there.

A simple girl that loves chips & salsa, ice from a bag and Fuji Apples from Costco. She used to drive a mini van & is  not to proud to say she would go back to a mini van any day! (it is easy to haul around bikes, skateboards, boogie boards & skate ramps)

Stephanie has a LOVE of paper, batter, fabric, dough (as in cookie dough) & paint. Probably more than the average person. When someone asks her how long she has been “creating”, she explains that she started at birth. Her very first project was when the nurses stamped her lil’  tiny baby foot in ink and stamped it on something official.  As she grew up, she  made Barbie Clothes, Barbie forts, pot holders and sit-upons. She baked cookies, cakes…pretty you name it, she  has made it at one time or the other.

At any given moment you may find Stephanie . . .praying, doodling, running, baking chocolate chip cookies, watching my boys skate, surf, boogie board, play soccer, or play baseball. She’s been seen helping with homework, doing laundry, coordinating fabrics with paper, doing more laundry, REALLY loving paper, sitting at the local skatepark, volunteering at the kids school, reorganizing my scrap room, turning trash into treasures, sewing, did we mention laundry???

Her self proclaimed mantra is this..

“Creating a Life that reflects my dreams..Living a Life that Defines my Purpose…”

Lori MacMath

Lori's daily mantra includes praying, "I will take it Lord, ALL you have to give," and a commitment to live out Colossians 3:17 daily. It's her prayer that the energy that fills her spirit be with her till her dying breath! She lives in the Deep South with her husband of 21 years and her 3 children, where she seeks daily to be creative and use the gifts the Lord has given her. With the heart of an artist and a spirit to live intentionally missional, Lori strives daily to see Him in all that surrounds her. Encouraging women on their daily walk with the Lord is her passion! She attends Vintage 242 church where she is active in women's and children's ministries. Lori can be found at her own personal website, "All You Have to Give." http://www.allyouhavetogive.com
