We have moved!! In my last moving post, I shared how things were moving fast, and we were trying to hang on. In some ways it's hard to believe we actually got moved and are now in Indiana! We couldn't have done it without the help of so many friends and family. Last Thursday we emptied our house and on Friday we closed on the house and started our travels north. This house was a part of a very special season in our lives. It is where we began being foster parents and was Continue Reading
Love is Patient (shirts & a coupon code)
The problem with having a creative household is we don't rest well. I guess I should say I don't rest well (in the traditional sense of unplugging from everything and just sitting still for a while). I can thank my grandma for these genes. As long as I can remember, she was always busy pouring herself into something. But the truth is resting to me can look like embroidering a hoop while I watch a show or process my day with Matt. I LOVE creating. It fuels me on, so I do count it as rest. This Continue Reading
The Good Things He Planned For Us Long Ago
Disclaimer: The amazingly talented and beautiful Christina DeVictor with Someplace Wild took these pictures for us. Although she is not accepting family shoots right now, we were privileged to get a shoot with her at the beach. You will love her work.

It may not always look or feel like it in the day to day, but God does have Continue Reading
Be Creative
Creativity is a complex idea. I think most people think of creativity as literally pulling out craft supplies and creating something awesome. Creativity can look different, and that is something I have been learning. I like how Wikipedia defines the word CREATIVE: "a phenomenon whereby something new and valuable is created (such as an idea, a joke, an artistic or literary work, a painting or musical composition, a solution, an invention etc.). The ideas and concepts so conceived can then Continue Reading
Good-bye Summer!
The summer flew by. We start school on Monday, and I can hardly believe it. I know as a second year homeschool mom there is so much I should probably be doing to prepare. There are supplies to gather, a room to set up, curriculum to buy (yes, I still haven't ordered our books), but my mind is fried. Instead, I would like to imagine I'm still at the beach, and take you there with me. I edited a few of the pictures from our trip last week to St. George with my family. Most of you know, but I Continue Reading
