Paper & Glam

This site is a gracious alternative to your morning paper, dedicated to the adventure of learning to love and live well, wearing haute pink, and believing love wins. I write about learning to love God and love people, fitness, scrapbooking, decorating my 800 sf Denver Dreamhome, and fitting it all in. My hope is that one day Paper & Glam represents a community of girls leaving a hot pink dent on this world not just with what we accomplish or even who we become, but with the way we have loved. Let our lives be the proof that love wins

I Dare You to Move

I gave my notice at work today, and now it feels real...I'm moving from San Diego, California to Denver, Colorado.

This seems "crazy and radical," to quote my mom, but I know it's the right choice. I've never been so sure of anything. Choosing to leave the people and the place I have grown to love so much these past four years has been a tough decision, but I think it's time...for a new adventure, to experience another seasons besides summer, for new friendships, for a new town, for change and growth.

I was praying for some guidance as I make this decision, and this commercial came on with Switchfoot's Dare You to Move. 

God asked me a question, "Are you going to trust me for the life I have for you?"
That is a question I can only answer with my life.

 

Now that this reality is blogged and even more real, back to watching football, I gotta see if Tennessee can stay undefeated...this is what I love about Sundays!

Welcome

  • Hey there, thanks for visiting Paper & Glam!

    My name is Lisamarie. I'm a California girl living in Denver, a runner at dawn, and a corporate girl by 9. I'm about God, glam, Vogue and Voltaire, wearing hot pink and believing love wins.

    I mainly write about learning to love and live well, with sprinkles of fitness, scrapbooking, literature, decorating my 800 sf Denver Dreamhome, and fitting it all in.

    My prayer is that we represent a community of girls leaving a hot pink dent on this world, not with what we accomplish or who we become, but with the way we have loved.

    Let our lives be the proof that love wins.

    Love wins,
    Lisamarie
