I have been putting off this post a little bit, and I am sitting here wondering why. I think a big part of it is because I feel like I am all “talked out” about COVID-19 and so I don’t really want to talk about it more. But yet at the same time, Mark and …
Easter Festivities
This Easter was simple. And I actually really loved it. Saturday morning, the kids woke up to their simple Easter baskets. To be honest, I completely forgot about them! Friday I was doing my grocery shopping and realized that I had nothing to put in them, grabbed each kiddos a chocolate bunny, a coloring book, …
Grandma Moldenhauer
Last Friday, my sweet Grandma returned back to our Heavenly Father. Her health had been failing in recent weeks. It felt more difficult given our current world situation since we were unable to visit her in the ways we wanted to. I have been reflecting on my memories with my Grandmother and I have to …
Easter
“[Jesus Christ] gave His life to atone for the sins of all mankind. His was a great vicarious gift in behalf of all who would ever live upon the earth. We solemnly testify that His life, which is central to all human history, neither began in Bethlehem nor concluded on Calvary. He was the Firstborn …
{RECAP} March 2020 Schoolhouse
This March…well, what is there to say? We all feel it. Whatever it is we are feeling…we are feeling a lot nowadays. Despite all of the uncertainty, I was really grateful this month, that despite some extra activities for the kids and church attendance being put on hold, the vast majority of our lives stayed …
Lydia’s 10th Month
This little one is in double digits! I can’t believe we are nearing her one year mark. Lydia is full of lovable, wonderful, chunkiness. She is 20 pounds 4 ounces (64%) and 28.3 inches in length (59%). She is still in nine month size clothes and takes one nap. Her routine is pretty solid right …
First Day of Spring
“SPRING, SPRING, SPRING!” {Please sing in your mind {or out loud – NO JUDGEMENT} to the Spring song from Seven Brides for Seven Brothers} I’m not going to lie – our first week of spring was a little rough. We are all in this totally foreign situation, with countless unknowns, and I feel like I …
Sarah’s First {naturally} Lost Tooth!
This girl is growing up! She has been so excited to lose a tooth and it FINALLY happened. About a year and a half ago, Sarah had to get her two front teeth removed because of an accident. Her bottom front tooth has been wiggling for awhile now and after dinner her and Mark got …
St. Patrick’s Day
Our family loves an excuse to CELEBRATE! The kids live for holidays and they were so excited to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day! We started the day off with a bang with our traditional St. Patrick’s Day breakfast {our holiday menu at the bottom}. I love having food traditions with holidays and we are pretty solid …
Coronavirus
I debated about whether or not I wanted to make this post public because there is so much out there about this. And to be honest, I don’t want to add to the noise. HOWEVER, this is a huge event in the world right now and in our lives, and I want to make sure …
