This Christmas was so special to us. It was a precious time of rest from running hard last year—we moved, had a baby, and Brian attended ILE and was working towards his graduate degree on the side. We sensed the Lord telling us to BE THE SALT AND LIGHT this Christmas. As we celebrated Advent…really…for […]

Thanksgiving 2013.
Wow, I have a LOT of writing to catch up on…and I am looking forward to spending time soon processing, capturing, and reminiscing over the memories we’ve made together as a family the past month. Has it really been that long since I’ve written??? This month has been a bit calmer than last, but so […]

These words began to transform so much […]
Experiencing Autumn in Kansas

The pumpkin patches, the hayrides, the delicious apples, the corn and hay mazes, the wagon rides, the pony rides, the farm animals, the BEAUTIFUL TREES […]

Our little Emma was baptized on the 20th of October….she was baptized into her faith…with a Christian name…she belongs to […]
WALK WORTHY.
Our first camping trip! This was a really fun trip!!! We have been longing to go camping together as a family.
