I honestly cannot remember what my goal was at the beginning of 2020 in regards to how many books I would have liked to read. I'm pretty sure I said twelve, but I also might have said 24...soooooo there's that. 2020 has been a crazy year. We moved back to the states, a pandemic happened, [...]

October Photo Dump
What a fun, busy month it was! So fun, that I'm too tired to write words and instead I'll just post a bunch of cute pictures of my children. Started off the month with a trip to the pumpkin patch. Six kids two and under—we survived. Hez is a pretty accurate representation of how everyone [...]
It’s finally fall!
September is over and to be honest, I had to rewatch my one second every day video from this month to remember all that has happened. Nathan’s job has gotten busier now that students are back and school is in session, I have tried to spend as much time outside before it gets too chilly, [...]
August Family Update!
It is officially September! I celebrated a little prematurely by drinking a pumpkin spice cold brew yesterday, and buying some fall decorations from the dollar spot at Target & even though it will still probably feel like summer here in Columbia for a month or two, I am determined to squeeze in every bit of [...]
Naomi McLean
I've been trying to share Naomi's birth story as much as I can the last week so that I can remember it as accurately as possible. Each time I replay the day's events I am amazed at the capabilities of the human body. I am so incredibly grateful for a smooth delivery and a healthy [...]
A week full of thankfulness!
It has been a week since our sweet Naomi girl made her appearance in this world! So much has happened, and yet it all seems to have gone by so fast! Also I’m typing this on my phone, while I feed Naomi and it’s currently midnight, because when else is a good time to write [...]
Social Distancing Week #1—CHECK.
It has only been four days of trying to commit to blogging everyday and I have already failed. Well, it looks like this may be going on for a while so at least I have time to improve? It's crazy to think that a week ago, life was still mostly "normal". Things change quick! How interesting [...]
Our last couple of weeks in pictures!
Since I didn't include one single picture in my last post, I'll make up for it with this one. Here we go! Well, there you have it—some pictures of the last couple of weeks of our life. I'm going to attempt to makes some blueberry-lemon scones on this gloomy, gloomy day, I'll let you [...]
It’s march—here’s what I’m grateful for.
I've been meaning to blog again for about a month and a half. Now that we're staying home the majority of the time, my goal is to blog once a day. I'll see how long it lasts until I run out of words. Again, my life is significantly less exciting now that we are back [...]
We’re back!
We are officially back on American soil! Our blog is about to get a whole lot more boring since we no longer live in a country on the other side of the world. What a journey it has been. Hez and I finally both slept through the night last night, and it's beginning to feel [...]
