Making the Welcome Sign for Our Home
We certainly had a different picture for our forever home, but when God spoke a promise about this house and land, it changed everything in 2018.

Goodbye Work, Hello Marriage
There have been a lot of changes for us recently. First thing’s first, I left my job. Before I get to that, I want to clarify a few things.
