…buy and sell houses! Oh… what? That’s not how the saying goes? 🙂 Okay fine… I think it goes something like this: Failing to plan is planning to fail. -Alan Lakein Yes, I suppose that does have a bit more wisdom tucked in it.However. In my own life I have observed an obvious progression that […]
From Michigan
Settling Into Durango
Well we made it to Durango, Colorado ~ all four of us together again!I wish I could take you along the journey day-by-day from this past month because in it you would see evidence of God’s grace, providence, and sovereign care time and again. BUT I know that neither you nor myself have the time […]
Living Apart
Most of you already know from Ty’s previous post that he accepted a job as Senior Operator at a natural gas processing plant for Williams Co. in Durango, Colorado. July 1st was his official start date, so with that in sight June flew by as we tried to plan and prepare for yet another move! […]
Here’s what we’ve been doing!
As I mentioned in the last post we have been traveling fools this spring. Starting in the end of March we went on a vacation / road trip that kept us away from home until the end of May! In eight weeks and one day we managed to put on over 9,000 miles!!! Because of […]
What are we doing?

Nya and Elli have always referred to winter as “snowy time”… there are four seasons: Spring, Summer, Fall, and Snowy Time! While Michigan has been a little confusing in that way for them (and a little disappointing for my snow-loving husband), I AM NOT complaining! I am the outcast of the family in this way. […]
Girls WILL be G-I-R-L-S!
I absolutely L-O-V-E having girls! I love my two on Earth and can’t wait to meet the one we have in Heaven! Girls are… well… sugar and spice and everything nice!…+ a sprinkle of drama here and there 🙂(but who doesn’t love a good drama at times, right)Our little Elliana Grace turned four this past […]
Trash or Treasure?
I love that God has placed a few women in my life who seem to have a knack for turning junky old garage sale finds into beautiful pieces of furniture and decor that you’d pay hundreds for in some cutsie downtown furniture store! I am by no means great at doing this myself, but I […]
