Hi! Let’s Catch Up
What have you been up to? We’ve been spending lots of time with family and recently took a trip to Fall Creek Falls State Park here in Tennessee with Brent’s family. We had such a good time hiking, swimming, and hanging out.
Here’s the scoop on what I’ve been doing recently and some things I’ve been wanting to share.
A while back I made sugar scrub for my hands. It felt like a mini spa day!
Anyone have a quarantine bubble?
Our library is famous for its marionettes. They created this catchy video about curbside pick up. We’ve watched it at least 10 times. Shout out to libraries for changing how they operate and bringing books to our car!
This Classic Greek salad is a great way to enjoy summer tomatoes and cucumbers.
I love my friends that are black. I’m listening. Hugs to all of you!
The boys recently watched The Apple Dumpling Gang then we made these apple dumplings (we omitted the raisins and nuts). Yum!
This sermon by Louie Giglio on winning the battle of the mind was especially helpful.
Have you tried these self-sealing, super quick and easy to fill water balloons? As a family, we played a few games but Hot Potato was the favorite.
Listen for some silver linings of the pandemic.
For family movie night we all enjoyed the documentary movie, Elephant.
This is how I make hard boiled eggs and it works every time.
Do your kids have trouble sharing a bed while on vacation? My sister-in-law, Meagan, puts a pool noodle lengthwise under the mattress cover then makes the bed as normal. A clear line of division. Genius!
I’ve loved this song since the first time I heard it. Very fitting for today.
I know so many things in our lives are unknown. The Coronavirus is spreading rapidly but I pray you are moving forward with your life as best you can. Living day by day and trying to enjoy the little moments before you.
I’d love an update on your life. No matter how small the detail, I’m interested.
If you purchase from a link on this blog a small percentage of the sale may come back to me. You are never charged more for the product. It’s a way to keep this site going and I’m very selective about the things I list. It’s mostly things we already own and love or things I think you would enjoy. Thank you for reading!
