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.

We were. We are. He is.

This past weekend, DH and I gathered with 100 other adoptive, foster, and pre-adoptive couples for our 4th annual Together Called marriage retreat.  (Here is my post from 2015.)  It is always a time we anticipate greatly.  To say that this year was our favorite is an understatement.  We were so blessed to be a...

#Life

My blogging silence is always an indication of a season when life seems to take over.  Spring is still coming up all around us, though I think the blooms are a bit confused with the 29 degree temperature this morning.  We’ve celebrated Christ’s resurrection, taken a brief schooling break, and said goodbye to our old...

Bittersweet

The children ganged up on me and refused to let me out of bed so they could bring me breakfast. Gosh I adore them. They are the sweetest souls and such blessings to me. It was a perfect way to start my birthday, which is an otherwise bittersweet and somewhat difficult day. Happy birthday Daddy,...

1/366

I decided to participate in a 365 challenge this year.  It’s a Leap Year though, which makes it a 366 challenge.  Maybe a reach, but I thought this would be a fun excuse to dust off my camera because I’m not shooting professionally right now.  It’ll be a great way to grow my skills and...
