Hi friends! Summer is seriously flying by... or is that just life in general. It tends to go fast if we're not careful. We are busy soaking in the family time, traveling, but mostly, lets be honest, the just plain relaxing time.

Farewell, 2017
2017 was a year of personal growth, intentional change and so much more for me. This was the year I found a true godly mentor and I grew my faith to a level I had only dreamed possible. The year my babies became 5 and 2. The year I made time for the old friendships … Continue reading Farewell, 2017
Bison & Apple Acorn Squash
Lately, I've been feeling the need to mix up our weekly menu a bit. I always love rotating our old favorites around and adding in a new entree or side here & there.

I have always been great at recording/journaling. But it's usually in the pen to paper form. I have full planners and notebooks of … Continue reading Some feelings about blogging with babes

I swear every single time I would forget we had 2 nets full of newly … Continue reading GoodBye Butterflies
4 days in Iowa
Each year I try my best to visit one of my closest friends from college, she lives in a small town about 3 hours south of the even smaller town that we went to school at. {honestly if I could I would visit a few other college girlfriends too but you know we're all adults … Continue reading 4 days in Iowa
