We are in the midst of a crazy month in American history so I thought it was the perfect time to reflect back on our summer and all the fun we had! I’m so grateful for the safe, innocent, unplugged, fun childhood memories we’re able to give our kiddos and visitors. It’s such a gift …

It’s been 3 weeks since we got home to our “new” house and I must say we are truly enjoying ourselves and are so full of thankfulness! The first days were a bit overwhelming as we dealt with all it entails to “start over” in many ways —- but the Lord (as always) was so …
