Hi There.

My friends call me Ruthie. I’m a wife, mom to my three favorite boys, and bookworm living in Orange County, CA. I believe in the life-giving power of grace and the magic that happens when you gather friends around the dinner table. I write about goals, growth, and faith with the occasional home design board thrown in the mix. Connect with me at ruthie[at]no17blog[dot]com.

No. 17 is an ever-evolving visual journal documenting scenes from my life & loves at the moment, my stories, my city. an avid journal keeper, this is number 17.
