New Site

Please contact me if you'd like the link to our new private site. I'm happy to share it with our friends and family!

The End

Sadly, I’ve made the decision to stop blogging here.

The password concept was working for a while, but wasn’t ideal. Lately, really awful comments about our children have come through again. I’ve had enough.

For the past eight years I’ve truly loved posting on this blog, as a way to share our life, but it’s time to move on. I’m not sure if I’ll look for a secure blogging platform, or simply continue to post pictures now and again to my Instagram feed.

I'll keep the recipes and patterns here for anyone that might need them (me included!) but, unfortunately, can no longer post photos of our family.

Thanks for sharing our stories.

Texas cousin time

After a few days at the river, Kyle's brother and is family drove to the west side of the state to spend a few days with us. It was a great visit. The girls played in the tree house and woods, caught frogs (many frogs) and Wednesday we spent the day at the beach. So much fun together!

Allison's frog actually let her do this, over and over

Fourth of July Weekend 2016

Another great weekend at the river. (I realize this is an overwhelming number of photos, but really it's the best way for us to document our fun weekend with the cousins.) Until next year!!
