A Giant Hole, Cupcakes, and Being Okay with Failing

We have a giant hole in our yard! This is a good thing, though. It means we are making progress on installing our new hot tub.

The plan is to fill the hole in with crushed limestone and then add pavers on top so the hot tub has a level spot to rest on in the yard. The bonus is that it will extend our patio a bit!

Niva is in heaven with the hole and extra dirt in the yard. I am in overdrive cleaning mode. 😉 (more…)

Life Lately in Pictures

I’ve got lots of photos that sum up our life lately in this post! There’s been a little bit of everything: play, baking, family time, some sickness, and more.

We were supposed to be leaving for Kentucky today to visit the Creation Museum but both Sadie and Mordecai are sick. Poor Sadie girl has a high fever and both kids are coughing like crazy so we are staying put! While I’m bummed to miss the trip, these pictures of all the good stuff in life lately leave me feeling thankful for all of our blessings 🤗
