books i read in april, may & june 2019
I transitioned from a working-mom to a stay-at-home-mom during these months and I must say it was much harder to find time to read then when I was a working-mom. However, I am still determined to read and listen to books, podcasts, etc. Here are the books I read this past April, May and June. […]
summer blast 2019
Last week was Church of the Highlands’s kids conference – Summer Blast! It’s very similar to the well-known VBS (Vacation Bible School) that lots of churches have, but it’s only 3 days (Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday). Last year I wasn’t able to get the time off work to serve, but since I’m no longer working, I […]

Rylie was full force per usual, learning, running and […]

letters to aaron || happy 5-year-anniversary
Dear Shaver, I never had a positive view of marriage. As far as I was concerned, the “we’re tolerating each other and surviving life together” attitude outweighed any concept of joy I thought was supposed to be there. I remember a couple of my friend’s parents saying that their spouse was their best friend, and that […]
our 5 pieces of marriage advice
5 years of marriage has taught Aaron and I a lot, and I’m thankful to say that we have had far more good times than bad when it’s come to our days as husband and wife. But life has brought us some high highs and low lows in our first 5 years, and through it […]
5-year-anniversary shoot
I had great ambitions. We would do a couple’s photo shoot every big anniversary. But with being pregnant this year, I decided a simple backyard shoot was a good idea. So here you go – our 5-year, not super fancy or extravagant photo shoot. 😛
