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 herbal remedies 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.

Front Porch Sittin’

We had the family over for a Mother’s Day celebration and it was such a nice evening.  Lots of chatting and eating, four-wheel riding and front porch sitting.  All of which led to a few front porch selfies as we fought against the wind.  We’re a funny bunch.

In my heart forever

I’m home.  And I’ve been awake since 3am thanks to jet lag.  I gave up trying to fall back to sleep at 4:30am, and finally got out of bed.  With the children from the orphanage taking over my dreams, and their precious little faces dancing across my closed eyelids, I knew it was a lost...

A bittersweet dichotomy

Christmas Eve marked the two year anniversary of my Daddy’s passing.  Two years seems like a long time, but reliving the minutes and hours of that day still haunt me.  Thinking about all that I haven’t been able to share with him sometimes still brings me to big ugly-cry tears.  Christmas Eve is filled with...

A sweet surprise

I went through some of my picture files (the year 2012 actually) this morning to make space for my China trip.  Because, you know, my macbook is considered an ancient dinosaur and doesn’t work well unless it has at least 100GB of space available.  And with only 500GB of space total … well that’s a...
