Joy
Heads up! We’re traveling over the next 2 weeks, like so many others, for the holidays. So see you in 2025! The joy of Christmas brings on a completely new feeling as a parent watching your kid experience it. James was born on Dec 21st so, technically, this is his 3rd Christmas, but he was…

You’re Beautiful
Welcome to July! Can you believe this year is halfway over? Each blog this month will reference a song of faith that also connects to creation. I hope you enjoy. The first season I worked in Yellowstone was tough. I was 19 and naïve. It was technically my first job. I’d only done babysitting beforehand.…

Our Foundation
Last week we sang, “Build My Life” by Pat Barrett in church and its been sticking with me through the week. You can listen to it here. I will be using throughout my post today. We are in the midst of a very tumultuous political season in the United States. One presidential candidate is now…
