Meeting Gideon, Coffee, and Customer Service

Thank you to everyone who read and commented on Hannah’s birth experience with Gideon! I’m happy to share that they’re both doing well! Gideon is still in the NICU and is working on growing and regulating his body temperature. Please pray with us that he would be able to go home soon!

The day after he was born, I hightailed it to the hospital to see Han, Josh, and Gideon. It was so good to just hug them and hear about his birth and of course meet my nephew!

Proud aunt over here! Hannah and I figured out since Gideon and Dakota were both born on a Sunday, they’re exactly seven weeks apart in age! Also, we were laughing when we told the NICU nurse we have seven(!) kids between us 😬 (more…)

Miss Laura’s Kielbasa Butter Beans Recipe

We’ve been having Bible studies at our house the past few Friday nights. For each study, everyone that attends brings a side dish or dessert. Last night, we decided to do a dinner of burgers and barbecue chicken. Our group is made up of members from our church, and one of them is Miss Laura. She’s such a special person to everyone who knows her. If I could use three words to describe her they would be gentle, warm, and gracious. I wish everyone had a Miss Laura in their life.

Back to the beans! When Miss Laura texted our group and said she would bring kielbasa butter beans, I was so excited. They’re one of those dishes that, once you’ve had it, you start to hope they show up at every cookout and fellowship meal you attend.

She arrived with the beans. Everyone feasted. I asked if I could share her recipe here on the blog and she said yes! So, without further ado, here’s the best side dish out there! Thanks for sharing, Miss Laura.
