Zucchini Lemon Blueberry Muffins – Gluten-Free, Refined Sugar-Free and delicious!

July 25, 2016

We have excitedly harvested quite a few zucchinis this Summer already and have enjoyed spiralized zucchini pasta, sautéed zucchini and a couple yummy soups, but I was inspired by a friend who was baking with her zucchinis today and thought I might make up my own muffin recipe. (She actually sent me a delicious looking … More Zucchini Lemon Blueberry Muffins – Gluten-Free, Refined Sugar-Free and delicious!

Leslie: 10 Things

June 30, 2016

Life has been confusing lately. It’s been full of ‘wait a minute’s’ and ‘did God really say that’s?’ and ‘what if’s.’ God has been gracious to us- so gracious. He’s called us to a couple years full of adventure and change. We knew this part of our life would be brief, and it seems that … More Leslie: 10 Things

kefir & kale popsicles – that my kids love!

May 30, 2016

The hot weather is upon us and my kids have been begging me for popsicles. I’m not a huge fan of all the sugar and other stuff that’s thrown into most grocery-store versions, plus, I can make my own for a fraction of the cost, so here’s my latest “winner, winner, chicken dinner” (as Jeremiah … More kefir & kale popsicles – that my kids love!

Tricia: Journaling is good for the soul!

April 30, 2016

Do you journal? This is something that I’ve done on and off over the years, but haven’t stuck to consistently. In 2015 on my birthday I committed to daily journaling and, of course, giving myself grace for the days that I miss (and yes there have been a few). The days when I am able … More Tricia: Journaling is good for the soul!

Leslie: Tips for Traveling with an Infant – Air Travel Edition

April 19, 2016

Vacations were so easy pre-kids. There was no need to think about nap times or bed times. No thinking about eating needs or entertainment needs or energy outlets. No need to think about extra bags and odd-sized luggage. Traveling with a baby can be extremely daunting. For a first time mom it can seem like … More Leslie: Tips for Traveling with an Infant – Air Travel Edition

Tricia: Let’s Get Outside

April 4, 2016

Spring is finally here!!! I don’t know about you, but I am completely in love with this time of the year (minus the time change, lol). Now that the weather is nicer and the snow is hopefully done and over with, I love hitting the outdoors. There is something so energizing about being outside and … More Tricia: Let’s Get Outside

Leslie: He is my rest

March 30, 2016

My son is a pretty good sleeper, as babies go. He’s gone through the typical sleep-changes and regressions of course (allowing us to experience parenting in all its wake-up-every-hour-or-two-all-night-long glory), but on average he only wakes up once a night. On a good night he won’t wake up until 4 or 5am, eat, then go … More Leslie: He is my rest

[Guest Post] Death by Guilt

March 28, 2016

There are some things that are so powerful they can destroy you. So sneaky that they can enter your mind so quietly that you don’t realize it until you struggle to set your mind on anything else. Let me paint a scene for you. It’s 8:03am and my daughter is sitting in her highchair while … More [Guest Post] Death by Guilt
