This morning was the first time K and I sat across the table from each other in a long time. He’s been in the thick of summer camp busyness since early May, and as such our time together is usually either very early in the morning or very late at night. But today, on his […]

As you might know, we’re in the middle of a huge life transition right now. A quiet day at the creek was just what I needed in this season. There’s something about munching popcorn while watching minnows eat algae and listening to a creek run that just makes a heart quiet down for a little […]

Kenton and I have been praying to root ourselves in one spot for a long, long time. Years of renting homes and moving around a lot has led us to value and desire the idea of staying in one place for a long, long time. We think it’s wise and we think it’s good. When […]

Dripping Springs, Texas, here we come! I can’t believe I’m even writing this post because this is truly such a crazy surprise!! After a lot of thought and prayer, Kenton has accepted job at an incredible church in Dripping Springs, Texas (which is just outside Austin) and we’ll be moving there mid summer! His […]

There are some patterns in marriage that are good, and there are some patterns in marriage that are bad. One bad pattern we used to have was slurpees… like all the time, haha. Okay that’s kind of a joke because being slightly addicted to slurpees probably won’t end your marriage. Butttt, being slightly addicted to […]

Recently, our house had some work done that required us to stay elsewhere for a few days. We (yes the whole Boone clan: bunny, Boo, and all) ended up staying at Cavalry Court in College Station, so it actually felt like a mini mid-week vacay! Just to prove that Howie did indeed come, here’s a […]

Making big decisions is really difficult. Often I find myself paralyzed in the face of major life choices. Or sometimes even little life choices, like chocolate or vanilla, haha. Though I will say, if it’s ice-cream, 90% of the time it’ll be vanilla with cookie-dough and caramel on top. Making big decisions, especially in the […]
