It’s been a slow process of settling into our new home. Having a baby right after you move doesn’t lend itself to getting much done right away but we’re getting there. I LOVE having a mudroom! This is the large space off the kitchen and garage that we were able to use for Grocery staples, all our seasonal wear like jackets, winter wear, swim wear, swim towels, umbrellas, shoes, backpacks, our washer and dryer, a utility sink and this massive and strange closet.

Nurturing Hearts
Doing my best to keep up our Baptism Day celebrations. A day that is more important than these babies were born is the day they were baptized into Christ’s death and resurrection, given eternal life and marked as His own.

Living Seasonally
Pumpkin patch, creating Halloween costumes, hearing the geese flying South, cooler afternoons, jackets, fire bowl on the patio, pumpkins on the porch and of course the endless rows of colorful trees. Fall.
