Sometimes you start on a journey, taking just a few steps and then you head back to where you were. That’s what the past few months have felt like. And anyone else feel like I keep having to talk myself into staying here? Sigh. Oh well. I’ll keep being honest and sharing this journey, even […]
More Roots – Photos on the wall
Last week I penned a post about how we first walked through our home two years ago. Lots of reflecting on God’s plans and purposes and how coming up on two years it feels more and more like home here. This past Saturday was Arbor Day. The city had free trees so my husband drove […]
April Musings & Reflections
Two years ago today, we walked into our current home for the first time. We didn’t know it would be our home but the Lord did. Thankfully I snap chatted my way through some homes we were looking at so I have our first impressions on video which is kind of fun. I liked this […]
Pond Home – Laundry Room Refresh
It’s March and I’m ready to kick off the first project of 2022 here at the Pond Home! It’s a little project but one I’ve been wanting to do for a while. From the listing off the mls you can see it’s a small laundry room. It was on my 2021 House Goals list but […]
Our Pond Home 2022 House Goals
According to my blog, this will make my 11th year of doing a blog post on House Goals. Say what?!? I never do anything for 11 years. Then I looked back and whew, don’t worry guys, I am still consistently inconsistent. I must have skipped a few years in the middle there. So, I have […]
Review of our 2021 House Goals
It’s that time of year again, where I look back at our House Goals from 2021 to see what we accomplished this year. I will be the first to admit, I really am in a slump with projects. The last thing I did was paint and I hate it. Have I changed it yet? Nope. […]
My word of the year for 2022
My word for 2021 was Connection. You can read more about how that went, here. To be honest, I was thinking maybe I didn’t even want to do a word this year. Some years I really connect with the word and others I kind of forget about. Not super encouraging I suppose but I really […]
A Bright Future in my Kitchen
Well after living in our home for one year, I have now painted the kitchen island twice. Ha! It was white when we moved in and I loved the classic beadboard on the island but I wanted a pop of color amidst all the white. Not long after we moved in, I decided to paint […]
The Pond House Reflections – One Year & Planting a Tree
Today is officially one year since we moved into what I’ve dubbed the Pond House. As an Enneagram 7, I love change. So while moving was definitely sad, there was a large part of me that was ready for change, excited for new places to explore, new people to meet and of course a new […]
Flexing my plans for the flex room
This fall I blogged about our flex room and what I would like to do if we moved my husband’s office out of there. It’s right off the front entry of our home. . The day has arrived and we are prepping to move his office to a spare room upstairs. I will share more […]
