I don’t really like clutter or mess but I’m married to a self professed pack-rat so I have to tolerate some level of it. (granted over the 4 years of our marriage he has improved dramatically.)

Jude started at a new school this year, a school which we were…
I love scavenger hunts. For my boys next track out this spring I have a fun scavenger hunt planned around town. This is a selfie scavenger hunt which means you don’t actually have to hide any clues or prizes. All of the items on this scavenger hunt should be fairly easy to find around town….
I can’t believe it’s been 10 years since I graduated from college… And 13 years since I graduated from high school… Graduation from college, high school and even preschool are all momentous occasions for a child. (wish I had a picture from my preschool graduation to put here… it would be funny and cute!)…
There are a handful of Bible verses that I have memorized. Some just from constant exposure growing up in the church (John 3:16) but some are verses that have really impacted my life and just stuck with me. When I was in junior high a friend gave me a card and on the bottom of…
