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.

Creative Conversations

I recently received my beautiful Creative Conversations with the Creator package from Kelly.  It’s a guided prayer kit designed to bring you deeper into conversation with the Lord for the fatherless.  All of the pieces in the kit are just gorgeous, and it’s been fun to work through it.  The activities forced me out of...

#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...

It’s coming! Save the date!

I can hardly believe it’s time to start thinking about the next Together Called retreat!  It seems like we just said goodbye the last one.  I am so excited about 2016 though, because Dumpling will have been home for quite awhile, which means hubby and I are going ALONE.  Blessed time together.  Alone. If you...

Building your adoption library

This weekend, I had the privilege of leading a breakout session at Together Called, one of my most favorite weekends of each year.  I’ve written about TC in the past (here and here) and always look forward to the restoring, God-filled time.  The adoptive couples’ marriage retreat is hosted by The Sparrow Fund and is...
