It’s October and right now in Steubenville it feels like December. Temperatures are in the 40’s and this morning I drank a cup of hot chocolate. These are the things you must do to survive the harsh cold of living in the north. Always keep it festive! Break out the Christmas movies even if you [...]
Well, not really, but I did go to my very first ever drive-in movie tonight with my very first ever and only husband!! I can’t believe we didn’t have one of these where I grew up and that it has taken me this long to have this experience. It may seem that I am getting [...]
Well, tomorrow is my two-week anniversary. I am a married woman!! The day was beautiful and perfect. But I am not writing about it yet. It takes me a while to gather my thoughts on things; which is why I am just now writing about something I have been turning over in my head for [...]
Go ahead and give yourself two points if you know that “Time Marches On” is the title of Tracy Lawrence song (as a hard-core country fan pointed out to me recently). Some kids were listening to New Kids on the Block or Michael Jackson, but I was in love with Randy Travis when I was [...]
So, I just did something really crazy called cancelling my facebook and myspace accounts. And let me tell you: those people do not want you to leave!

I have never considered myself a political person, although I was the president of my eighth grade class AND my fourth grade 4-H club (what did those H’s stand for again??). I don’t want to write about political issues. There are so many things happening in our country that we all have deep concern for. [...]
so here’s the run-down of 2009 in the life of kelly pease (for the millions upon millions who are deeply concerned): i rang it in dressed as my perception of a future girl from the eighties. got up the next morning, put on my new boots and went to mass with my soon-to-be husband (i [...]
So, I have been living on a bus for the past eleven days. In that time, I have played eight shows and have one to go. From the bottom of my heart, let me say thank you to Long Beach, Mobile, Ormond Beach, Jenson Beach, Jacksonville, Tampa, Orlando, and Indialantic. It’s humbling to meet people [...]
This past weekend we did a fall retreat with Dirty Vagabond, St. Alexis, and St. Bonaventure from Pittsburgh. We drove our buses through a massive snow storm to get to the retreat center in Cleveland, Ohio. Did I mention that Dirty Vagabond has recently acquired a school bus…that’s right, folks…Joey (my fiance and an urban [...]
