This week has been crazy, the meal plan I had ended up falling to the wayside on Thursday due to an unexpected science fair right in the middle of 2 soccer practices. Running 5 days in a row causes a lot of chaos. This next week I'm keeping it simple and summary. We also have … Continue reading Meal Plan for March 30 – April 5th

Hey all! It's been quite some time since I've written. My world has been full of chaos, unknowns, stress, a whole lot of breaking down and a newly found breaking free. Following Jesus and taking steps to live life more like Him isn't easy and being humbled every day can be quite painful. The last … Continue reading Breaking Free
