1. Meet Fidget:  We have been looking after him this week while my parents-in-love have been in Mexico. Isn’t he the cutest thing EVER?! He is the best little guy & so awesome with our kids. I {almost} want to keep him. Almost. If it weren’t for my girls (mostly our three year old) constantly bugging him, I’m pretty sure I would refuse to return him.

Real Friends

November 9, 2010 by Sara Haynes 11 Comments

Before I started blogging I heard about friendships between people I knew in real life and friends they had met online.
To be honest, I thought it was weird. Like, really, really weird!!!

How can you connect with someone and develop a true friendship if you can’t sit down with them and see them face to face? How can you really know someone if all you know about them is what you are reading off a computer screen?
I guess I thought that in order for a friendship to be real you had to actually meet in the traditional way…. ummm… like in person.

But, now I know better.

I love Jesus, my guy Chris + our four. We seek joy. Homeschool. Adventure together. Mess up and start again.

"And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them."
Romans 8:28

Ok friends! This is your personal invitation to ju Ok friends! This is your personal invitation to jump in with me to read through your Bible in a year. I know that for me, the years I’ve had a “plan” have been the years I have most consistently spent daily quiet time with Jesus. 

The plan I’m following has a portion of the Old Testament, Psalm, Proverb and New Testament to read each day. And it’ll be the best 10 mins you spend each day! 💗 You do not need the specific bible I’m using, I’ll have the readings posted so you can use whatever you have! 

If I’ve learned anything in 2020 it’s that I long for community. Yes, I can read through on my own this year.... but how much richer would it be to do this with friends. The bible tells us “As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.” 

I know I have experienced God in amazing ways through the words & experiences of friends. We were made for community! 

SO-I’ve created a private FB group for us to have the space to encourage, share and find accountability as we dig into God’s word in 2021!

Would love for you to join me. 💗
Fav crew right there. Fav crew right there.
Me no likey the fog. 🤦‍♀️❄️ Pretty to Me no likey the fog. 🤦‍♀️❄️
Pretty to look at, sure, but I like to see when I’m skiing. 🤷‍♀️
A brand new bible for a brand new year. Chris and A brand new bible for a brand new year. Chris and the kids all use YouVersion for their bible plans but I am partial to a physical book- just something about feeling those pages as I read. 
If anyone wants to join me please send me a message! I’d love to spend 2021 in the word with you! 💗

Our first Christmas together in the mountains. ❤ Our first Christmas together in the mountains. ❤️
This moment. I look forward to it every year. Ever This moment. I look forward to it every year. Everyone else is in bed while I sit here in the dark- with only the light from the tree. My heart is so full of anticipation. Wonder. Joy. 

I always think of that first Christmas night while I sit here by the glow of the tree and see the gifts under its branches. I think of all those years ago on that eve of our Jesus’ birth. I imagine how all of heaven must have felt the same as I do tonight- KNOWING the gift we were about to receive on that wonderful night. Dear friends, may all our souls feel their worth tonight as we remember who HE is. 
💗

Oh holy night
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error, pining
'Til He appeared and the soul felt it's worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn'
Fall on your knees, oh, hear the Angels' voices
Oh, night divine, oh, night when Christ was born
Oh, night divine, oh, night, oh night divine
It’s been a fun month with our guy Candycane. I It’s been a fun month with our guy Candycane. I think I will treasure these sweet days of fun and excitement forever. #ourelfcandycane
