Ready for every Barbie and Bluey, ready to share in the fun, and ready to continue being a part of this beautiful community we call home!

We could just envision a simpler life that placed emphasis on our family and the ability to spend as much quality time as we could with one another.

It was freeing to be able to rearrange our entire day for no other reason than to make memories.

This is real life and is the life we are living.

And as we were reminded of that little girl playing pretend, we were so grateful for this time with our growing-up-way-too-fast-preteen.

Yes to fun, yes to working together, yes to creating a day we all will never forget!

We are finding that the longer we are here, the more unbinding we do.

Days like today make us grateful for where we live and the opportunity to embrace our community.

The truth is, the unbinding we did a few years ago was just the precursor to prepare us to dig deeper and find the next layer below that was in need of unbinding.

I believe it is not about looking for the good in things, but seeing things as good.

Today, we have far less than we once had but still more than we want. We have found ways to easily take stock of what we have and to part with what we no longer need.

I am thankful for the opportunity to serve our community—to be a part of the place we call home. But I am most grateful just to have this TIME with our kids. Time to visit and time to dream with them.

But now, things are different. We know how to be and how to enjoy.

The truth is, our priorities, our values, and living with intention is what truly allows us to put first things first.

The truth was there staring us in the face and it really caused us to question: What do we actually need and what do we need to let go?

We know well enough that the absolute best things in life are free. We are excited to soak in all of the best things that we can!

Of all of the things we have done, nothing comes close to the memories we have made.

We knew we valued our faith, our family, and traveling. But when we looked at how we spent both our time and our money, those things were not at the top of the list

There are some days that alter our life course, that change our trajectory, days that will forever hold a significance in our life.

When we finally started to dream again, we allowed ourselves to dream in every area of our lives—including what we wanted our marriage our to be.
