I cannot believe it is already another month and time for another booklist! I also cannot believe I am blowing my 23 book goal for 2023 out of the water! I'll tell you, when I switched from podcasts to audiobooks, my book count skyrocketed! HAHA! I am excited to share April's books with you because some of them were really great (and others were not so much ;) ) As you read this post, keep in mind: When Twilight Breaks by Sarah Sundin* My first WWII book of the year and I'm so glad to ... continue reading...
Thorin’s Easter Sunday Baptism
April 9th, 2023 Easter is a special day for the church body as a whole as we celebrate how Jesus overcame death on the cross, bearing the weight of all our sins, and rose again bringing us with Him into new life but it is also a significant day in our little family. All three of our children were baptized on Easter Sunday - counting them as God's people. Hilde in 2019, Millie in 2021, and Thorin in 2023. Something Bruce and I didn't initially plan or dream for our children, but now something ... continue reading...

March Booklist
Another month, another booklist! I'm fighting the urge to not just photograph the pretty books from this month to feature in the header image (like a weirdo.) These booklist photos would look much better if they were color coordinated or themed but I read a whole lot of random each month and that's just the way it is! I read eight more books this month so were at 20 books out of the 23 I'm trying to read this year - I'm onto a great start! Clearly, I should have probably set a higher goal, but ... continue reading...
Three Easter Baskets
One, Two, Three little Easer Baskets all in a row! I'm grateful (in that silly matching mama way) that Pottery Barn still had these adorable felt Bunny Easter Baskets I purchased for the girls two years ago so that I could have all three colors. I got the green for Thorin but it was quickly claimed by Millie whose "favorite color forever and ever is green!" Leaving Thorin with the leftover white one. These felt bunny baskets are not only adorable, but their petite size helps reign in my gift ... continue reading...
