I’ll come clean–I was going to skip blogging this week. Yes, I had a birthday, but, well…I honestly just didn’t have too much to say about it this year. (I know, I know…which is surprising for this normally long-winded girl…) Until there I was at the gym right before the fitness class started, chatting with… Continue reading New Mercies Monday: Another Year

New Mercies Monday: Receipts & a Penny Horse
I am constantly trying to see the Lord in all that I do in a day. He teaches us all the time, and I don’t want to miss a lesson from Him. So, so often I understand His character through watching my children and taking note of the way my heart, as their mother, responds… Continue reading New Mercies Monday: Receipts & a Penny Horse
New Mercies Monday
This week, I was blessed with double “Jillian” new mercies! My sweet friend Jillian from Tacoma was in town and I was SO blessed to get to grab a quick breakfast with her. Such a treasured friend.

celebrating our won-dough-ful 3 year old!
It’s incredibly hard to believe that our baby girl turned THREE this year!! Here are the highlights from her birthday and birthday party… She went to gymnastics and then Grandma, Grandpa, Selah and I went to go pick out a cupcake from a bakery. For weeks I had been asking her what she wanted for… Continue reading celebrating our won-dough-ful 3 year old!
Selah is 3!
Our darling little girl is growing up so quickly before our eyes, and she brings an exceeding amount of joy into our home every day. Selah lives life as if it were a musical–and we adore it!! She literally sings her way through life…she sings throughout the day, sings herself to sleep, and wakes up with… Continue reading Selah is 3!
