5 ways I didn’t thrive our first year of ministry…
I’ve shared bits and pieces of our story, but never too much for fear that someone reading would see me on Sunday… but after seven years of diving full into ministry with my husband, some parts of me have grown thicker skin (well kind of). I wasn’t all too keen on the idea of comingRead More
Book Review | Girl, Wash your Face
Since my first experience with audiobooks, I’ve begun to check off my book list again. I love reading, and have had a love/hate relationship with finding and making the time for it. Well more so the ideal time to sit, drink coffee, read, in total (yep you guessed it) silence. But I digress, cause thoseRead More
Quality..quality time
As our Christmas break comes to a close, I’m filled with a lot of gratefulness. Unfortunately everyone was sick the majority of our break, I mean really sick. From stomach flu to RSV it’s been one quarantined holiday. It ended up being a serious blessing in disguise. We laughed a lot, cleaned from top toRead More
It’s Christmas time again!
The holidays have been in full gear, but we haven’t had much time to slow down.

And even after attempting again several months later, I still hadRead More

9 months and counting…
It’s been 9 months of loving this incredible sweet baby boy of ours. Time has slipped by without me fully noticing since Izaiah passed the six month mark. It was as if he was just waiting to cross that threshold so he could dive into life. Everything has been ahead of schedule this time around,Read More

Parenting: I’m not a Manager
I love my kids. Even when I’ve repeated the same thing 37 times and no one listens, I actually love them ha! But I never realized how challenging parenting really is. It wasn’t until recently as our oldest grows in his personality, that I found myself in a rut of just making it through theRead More
