  • Schools out (for summer 🎶 ☀️)and it feels so good! What a BLESSED YEAR this was! I LOVED my girl’s teacher’s and Cyrus had another great year in Junior high to which, might I add, Eisley will be joining next year! She’s so ready and I believe she will thrive💕 Grateful for how God keeps leading and guiding us as we try our best to follow Him and raise our kids to do the same! For now, no talk of school but all things SUMMER!!!!! I LOVE having my kids home🙌🏻
  • Bexley’s first ballet recital!! She did an amazing job! So grateful for sweet friends and family who came to see her!
  • Andy and I were on our daily walk #oldmarriedcouple and he started talking about something that I didn’t realize (until he shared with me) I actually had the same stirring in my heart over the last few days. Vague but I talked about it in my stories if you’d like it elaborated....I LOVE your sweet, encouraging, ‘amen-ing’ messages- keep.them.coming!!! I walk out God’s calling so much better (we all do!) when The Body of Christ is lifting me up- just being honest/vulnerable over here😉 So I thank you!!! God is saying something beyond what I could say...He wants us to be CAREFUL! to not put ANYONE or ANYTHING in place of Him. Not in our hearts, not in our actions, not in our identity. If we believe Jesus is the son of God, died and was raised from the dead, the most ANYTHING about us, is that we are a child of His, we are made right with Him, we are no longer a slave to sin... What other things do we instead, identify with more than that??? Gender, personality traits, title in the church, our past?? ***adding*** If we are married, if we are a mom, or our business or simply insert what YOU tend to identify with more than Christ at times. If we are called to be set apart (we are) then we need to show it’s Christ in us and what He has done that has saved us and everything good and right and holy flows from that. “When we start to give up our identity as God’s image-bearer and turn it into other things, we find false identities, we become less of who God intended us to be, less human.” -Andrew Holt (my hubby) Random pic from my bible study and the amazing food we had...breaking bread together ❤️
  • I had a really great weekend with my kids and family. My heart is all warm and grateful ☺️ I wrote about the good and the hard on this day. More on the blog (link in profile) “This Mother’s day, I pondered, ‘How many women actually have a really great Mother’s day? Doesn’t pain and loss taint everyone on this day? And if not everyone, it’s not many years before it will. Oh the bliss of having my mother here on earth, my children easily conceived, one by one they came into this world and made my dream unfold without a hitch. Until sickness, death and suffering took grip on my third-born, my Zekey.’” #mothersday
  • Andrew William, you have truly only gotten better with age! You lead well, have always taken care of us...and more gushy love stuff on the blog! But swipe through our fun day first! Link in profile: Search ‘Andrew, 40 Looks Good On You!’ ☺️
  • Oh I’m so grateful for these three. Missed them and so glad we’re all together again❤️ @jenisicecreams 🍦
  • I hear it’s not normal having neighbors that are as close as we all are. We share more than sugar and eggs. It’s not always perfect, but I’m so so grateful. They have loved us in ups and downs, and we have tried to do the same. Asking them a month ago to celebrate Andy’s 40th for the weekend, all of them needing to organize sitters, they all were able to come and meant so much. Day two of his celebration was a hit- @pinsmechco was a blast! I love doing life with this guy is like wine, he gets better with age 😉
  • Day one of the weekend-birthday-celebration for Andy who isn’t quite 40, but will be on May 7th! Had a great time at @topgolf with friends from the hood, got a hotel all weekend to escape the chaos of the kitchen renovation and enjoy Columbus as if we are just visiting! Day 2 is here and it’s going to be so much fun! Still so in love with this man...grateful ❤️
  • Yesterday was kitchen install! I was so so giddy, so so thankful, and kind of in disbelief that this day actually came. I LOVE design, I love the process of making a space something I (or they) love and am inspired by. I also remember for YEARS being one who could barely stand being next to women who said their pantry was too small when we were barely scraping by in an apartment and in full time ministry. A pantry is a luxury, even if it’s small. All of this design, and demo and making a space new is really great and I love doing it but it’s not everything. This kitchen will not bring me lasting joy, or magically make my fleshy desire for more go away. Nor will it cook for us and clean itself 😉 I just want to stress this to everyone who doesn’t have their dream kitchen or dream house yet, what you have now is a gift and worth living in it with love, making it yours, inviting people in, breaking bread together.
