10 pictures from our day March 10, 2017.

The day started early for me - 1:00AM - a huge storm hit and woke the girls. Thankfully there were no tornadoes, just tons of thunder, lightening, wind and pounding rain.

A verse to meditate on for the day.

Reading before anyone else woke up.

Ava helping fold Ezra's clothes. 

Everyone helping put the beehive together! 

Asher brought these books to my room where I was folding clothes and asked me to read to him. Special memories!

We obviously do lots of reading here. hehe

Lily left this note for me on the toaster. 

Jacob and I ran out for a quick coffee/tea date after the kids were in bed. We ran into some friends and enjoyed chatting with them for a little while before we had to run to the store and get birthday decorating supplies for Asher's birthday the next day.

Sweet Asher on his 5th birthday!

Have a great week!

Guess what?!?

We are expecting another precious baby in late August! We are all excited and I will post more details about the pregnancy soon!

I only managed to get 9 pictures on February 10. Jacob was out of town and it was just a busy, crazy day.

Asher and Ava love to turn on music and then play their "violin" and "cello" along with it.

Yummmm!

My sweet baby man!

Headed out on some errands.

Snack time. This boy loves pretzels!

Lily used a birthday gift card at Hobby Lobby and spent the afternoon crafting. 

Walking to Grammie and Grandpa's for supper. 

Gorgeous sunset!

Nighttime snuggles. Tired mama and tired baby!

Have a wonderful day!

January 2017 edition of 10 pictures on the 10th.

Chai tea latte in my mug from Spokane, Washington.

Asher practices his violin anytime, anywhere. haha

Getting milk at the farm.

With a carrot stick in each hand, he's good to go!

Playing outside on the windy warmish day.

I was working at the computer and Ava spent a long time talking to herself in the mirror.

Lily is participating the the Read Aloud Revival challenge of reading aloud 15 minutes each day during January. She loves it! (photo by Asher haha)

Mama's AIP supper - deconstructed taco :)

Starting the day with prayer and thanksgiving.

Happy Birthday, Ava!!

Birthday breakfast on the birthday plate. 

Morning time while mama eats breakfast. I was running a little late.

Love this precious 3 year old!

3 backyard explorers.

One of the youth orchestras Jacob conducts played at the Christmas tree lighting ceremony. Since it was Ava's birthday he had her come up and help him conduct her favorite Christmas song - Frosty the Snowman. :)

Yaya and her mini-me.

I got to get out in the evening for a scarf exchange party! It was so fun! We learned how to make these adorable paper flowers too!

Love my scarf!!

10 pictures from our day, Monday, October 10, 2016.

Reading my Bible wrapped up in a blanket because it was 62 degrees in the house when I woke up!

While I get ready for the day (before the kids are up) I listen to an audiobook or podcast. This is a podcast I've been enjoying lately.

My breakfast - veggies and chicken sausage. I have been doing the AIP (auto-immune protocol) diet for almost a month now and have seen some improvements in my health. It's just been in recent years that studies have shown that Endometriosis is similar to autoimmune diseases. Very interesting.

We love homeschooling!

The weather has been beautiful and we have been outside enjoying it!

Asher and Ezra.

Our current read aloud book.

Ava helped herself to the leftover mac and cheese. 

He got himself stuck. Ha!

Asher heading to Grammie's for a sleepover. My in-laws were out of town last weekend so Lily and Levi took turns spending the night with their aunt. Even though Grammie and Grandpa are home now, Asher and Ava are insisting they get a turn spending the night too. :)

Have a great day!
