I am so thankful for the hubby’s new job. Lemme just say that again… Sooooo thankful. At his previous job, we really felt like we never saw him. He usually got home with only a half hour or so before the kids’ bedtime, AND he had to work TWO Saturdays a month. Last month we…

A Needed Reminder {& Free Printable!}
Being a wife and mom is a great job, isn’t it? It’s a tough one for sure but often comes with rewards like sticky hugs and adorable smiles. Sometimes we I seem to focus on the part of the job that isn’t so marvelous though… the daily grind of the mostly mundane stuff… wiping faces,…
Sadly a Sparky NO MORE!
I think part of being a mom is the constant nostalgia at milestones our little ones always seem to be passing. {Or is it just me that is the weepy, sappy one?} SOMEHOW today is Haylee’s LAST DAY of SECOND GRADE!!! Our first year in the world of homeschooling is over, and I think it…
Goodwill Hunting!
This is our LAST WEEK of our first year of Homeschooling! Can I get a whoop-whoop? In honor of our last week, I decided at the last minute to try to plan a fun outing or activity for each day of the week! Yesterday’s “outing” was supposed to be story time at the library. After…
From then… to now…
As we face moments of pain in our life, in the midst of them they seem as if they will never, ever end. We can feel like we are in an abyss of hurt that is impossible to surmount. One of my most painful journeys has probably been the journey of infertility and miscarriage. I…
Happy Easter!
In Christ Alone! We sang this Easter Sunday, and it is such an amazing song. It was so moving to sing this on Easter. I am so thankful that we have a Savior who gave His life for us, and ROSE from the grave! Our Easter celebration started on Saturday at our Sunday School…
Homeschool Drama…
It is hard for me to believe that a YEAR has almost come and gone. Our first year homeschooling… not to mention staying home with THREE little ones. The end of this year brings with it lots of questions about the upcoming year. Should we homeschool again? Should we stick with what we did or…
Veggies make you grow Big & Strong, Wade
Recent equally disturbing and hilarious convo with the Wadester that went something like this…. {I’m pretty sure this would qualify as over-sharing, and is not for the squeamish [mom]. I apologize in advance.} Me: You better not be eating your boogers, Wade. Wade: {Sidelong glance with Big & Guilty grin confirming my suspicions.} Me: That…
A-Splishing and A-Splashing
I LOVE vacation! But really… who doesn’t, right? It is something that we’ve always managed to plan for since our first year of marriage. I would say it’s definitely a priority to us. Something important enough to invest time and money into. I think even more so now as the kids are getting older and…
