Today was absolutely beautiful outside, literally the perfect spring day! Luckily, Nate scheduled some time off to coincide with our big girl's spring break, so we decided to make the most of this gorgeous day. Unfortunately, none of our plans worked out. We haven't seen the National Zoo yet, so that was what we originally [...]
Happy Easter everyone!! I hope you all had a lovely weekend with family and friends and were able to enjoy an encouraging Easter Sunday service at church! We certainly did! We spent Saturday hunting eggs, eating too much candy and preparing for Sunday. Sunday we had a wonderful morning beginning with the BEST homemade cinnamon [...]

On the first day of spring I packed away all of my winter wardrobe. A bit early? Nope. I'm over the heavy fabrics and copious layers. Dark colors, be gone! I'm not the only one who feels this way though. Sweet Lilly, at just 2 years old has eschewed wearing her puffer coat for the [...]
The last few weeks have been pretty hectic. Nate was out of town for most of February, which always makes the girls really unsettled and thus, makes my life extra stressful.
