There was once a time where I hardly ever lost anything or forgot anything for that matter. Life was more streamline, my memory a bit more young and crisp. Then motherhood happened. Life isn’t nearly as streamlined, it’s juggling two kiddos, hearing little requests and just making the best of our days. I have an…
Sometimes it’s hard to be the light or see the light at the end of the tunnel when life gets heavy and busy or the news just becomes too much. I feel like we have experienced that a lot lately – news wise. Sometimes it’s simply that it’s Monday and it’s easy to slip into…
I have been looking for a great board book style bible for my littlest. I was so excited to find this Starter Bible by Tommy Nelson. The illustrations are beautifully done and it’s made up for 20 bible stories such as The Creation story, Noah’s Ark,the Story of Moses, Jesus’ birth, the Ressurection and more…
My Little Prayers is incredibly cute and goes well with our other favorite book Bible Promises that I shared here. My Little Prayers has sections throughout the book for situations such as feelings, bedtime, mealtime, family and friends, favorite things, their day, special time with God and special days. The collection of prayers are short and…
Change is coming. We’ve known it for a while but it’s coming dauntingly close as we’re now in August. As you know, Ryan was gone for the month of June and he’s doing more short stint travels in the coming weeks. We knew what we signed up for when he graciously accepted this career with…
Happy Monday, sweet friends. We got home one week ago from our five day trip to the mountains and it was so good for my soul. We packed up our stuff, our pups, and our sweet babes then headed three hours northwest to the Routt National Forest in to the mountains. The roads we winding,…
We are off to the mountains for an awesome 5 days of camping! We are so excited for this adventure. We haven’t been camping since the summer of 2014 and cannot wait. We are all loaded up and have hit the road with the camper on the hitch of our 4Runner, the kids and dogs…

We love to eat healthy in our house and I’m really lucky that I have two little ones that love a wide variety of fruits and vegetables. Our kids see Ryan and I eat healthy and that makes them more excited to do the same. I’ll share more about how we encourage this another day. …
We had such a lovely weekend. Ryan was at a meeting most of last week but he came home early Friday which was such a nice surprise! The weather was lovely and we spent it outside playing and flying the kite. Saturday we went out to lunch at a great little pizza place called PizzaRev. They…
I love taking a nice long shower. Sometimes it’s refreshing and other times it just helps de-stress. Not to mention how good it feels to be clean. However, I’m convinced there is nothing worse hopping out of the shower and finding yourself with a scratchy towel. Wouldn’t you agree? We have a variety of towels…
One of the things on my summer bucket list with the family was to make some fresh squeezed lemonade. I love fresh, genuine lemonade and I don’t mind putting in a little elbow grease to make sure it’s freshly squeezed and yummy. A had never had lemonade until this year and she fell in…

Changing the calendar to July felt like a giant exhale. You know the one that just give you such a sense of accomplishment and relief? That kind. I was looking forward to July coming before June even started and it’s finally here and Friday night late Ryan came home from our month long travel stint…
This post is massively image heavy but I’m not even sorry about it. Last week we went to the Butterfly Pavilion in Westminster, CO with my mom and got so many photos. This wasn’t not our first trip, by any means but we did get lots of good photos! I’ve been dying to get them…
As B grows older – he’s turning a year this weekend – it’s also means we are starting to hit all of those milestones including him wanting to be more like us and also eating more of the food that we do. He’s still nursing and will be until he makes the choice to wean…
It’s no secret that I love two things – encouraging my children to be creative and encouraging my children to play with an imagination. With A I’m so very that she has a fantastic imagination, as well as, loves to learn. I feel like both are incredibly important traits for her as she grows and…
