A Weird Soul
We are in the waiting. We passed all our home study and Saturday we took our policy and procedures class. Because we are open to sibling sets of two or three, it’s likely we’ll get kids quick, but we joke that we probably won’t get any till I’m out of town at my conference in …
Every year I try to do the thankful list for the month of November. Sometimes I’m just finishing it in one day because I just struggle to remember it every day.

This is one of my all time favorite songs. Usually something I play on a down day. It’s just that great reminder that in everything, God is there. The words just ring through the moments. Ginny Owens was also one of if not the first singer/songwriter music I started getting into. She has a way …
Ice Cream Maker: I’m thinking this model but I’m still doing a little research. My main use will be making sugar free fro-yo, but occasionally I’ll want the full-on ice cream experience. Eco Kitchen Supplies: I’ve been wanting to upgrade our food storage to healthy and sustainable options, but the apartment didn’t really give us …
This week is inspired by family, both the one I have and the one yet to come. Family has always been important to me, and these songs embody them a little.
