I make most everything from scratch so I don’t think much of it to be honest. Yet, after a half dozen messages requesting our cinnamon roll recipe came in replying to Friday’s Instagram story with cinnamon rolls in the background, I figured I should just share it here instead of continuing to send a photo of my recipe card. Cinnamon Rolls Ingredients:• 1 cup scalded milk• 1 1/4 tablespoons yeast• 1/2 tbsp raw sugar• 1/2 c raw sugar• Two large eggs• 6 tablespoons melted butter• 1.5 … [Read more...]
Colors of the World.
It’s back to school time again and although it looks different for many, it looks the same to us. We’re continuing our homeschool journey and to be honest, I’ve never been more grateful considering we aren’t forced into a new transition like many are. In addition to our schooling style being the same as usual, we’re also using our usual brightly colored supplies from Crayola. Crayola is a staple brand in our home and the kids love nothing more than the fresh supplies for the school year. … [Read more...]
You’re Allowed to Change Your Mind
I know things feel harder right now in a lot of ways. Everyone is dealing with a different challenge right now. Challenges are normal but the current stage of the country makes things feel harder.

They don’t have to be the final choice. You don’t need my permission but I’m going to give it to you anyways: you’re allowed to … [Read more...]

While it’s been different than any of our other pregnancies where we announced it early, there’s been something so sweet and special about just a handful of people knowing. Part of the delay was we … [Read more...]
Real Food. Excellent Flavor.
We have a love for homemade, delicious food in our house. We cook all day every day with fresh ingredients. It feels natural to us because Ryan and I enjoy the craft of cooking - experimenting with flavors and cuisine. Giving our children a variety to eat has, thankfully, given them a diverse and open palette. We’re constantly making new things and they’re always eager to eat. One of our recent dinners was wild caught sockeye salmon that Ryan smoked on his Rectec Grill and marinated in … [Read more...]
Save the Children.
Today is World Day Against Trafficking. Since I learned the depth of this heartbreaking reality months ago and that the US is the capital of human trafficking, it’s weighed heavily on my heart. Part of it is being a compassionate human, the other part is being a parent not being able to fathom a child going through what countless children do every single day. Today, as I shared a lot of awareness in my stories, I could not help but constantly think of the children that would give anything … [Read more...]
