Chasing truth, beauty, goodness, and all things naturally wholistic.

Faith over fear.

Ephesians 2:8-10

I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart since 2003. Together, we have four amazing children, by birth and adoption. When I am not homeschooling my favorite students, I spend my days on our 7-acre property where I try my best to love my family well and experiment with hobby homesteading. My favorite things to do are cultivate my ever-expanding gardens, wrangle chickens, ferment all the things, sourdough bake with einkorn flour, and figure out new ways to use herbs and essential oils. I believe God has tasked us to be good stewards of our spaces in the world, and I guide my children to do the same.

I am a board member of The Sparrow Fund and an Empowered to Connect Facilitator. I love to dig in the dirt, cook nourishing food, capture beauty through my camera lens, watch the sunrise on the beach, and spend time with good literature on my porch while sipping on a hot cup of coffee.

April Showers

April 4, 2018

We certainly are getting plenty of April showers! In fact, just about every day of our spring break has been rained out. I don’t love the days that we can’t get outside, but I do love what the rain does for all of the flowers. Lots of life sprouting up everywhere! I so enjoy watching all of the flowers spring back to life and add color to the outdoor landscapes. I’m incredibly thankful that God is so creative and never tires of diversity. There’s so much beauty surrounding us to shout His glory!
