Playhouse Makeover
Before Christmas 2019, Baker started asking for a “swing set” from Santa. At the time, she was terrified of swinging so we knew what she really meant was a playset with a slide. We already had her big gift so decided to hold off until her birthday since you could find them used all over Facebook. Then quarantine hit. By the end of March, I had suspicions that we wouldn’t be returning to school and knew I needed something else to help us entertain Baker outside other than her water table. So I started looking for a used playset but couldn’t find a decent one for a reasonable price anywhere…
I Scream FOUR Ice Cream- Baker Bea’s Ice Cream Birthday Party
I scream, you scream. We all scream FOUR ice cream! Baker Bea turned four back in July and here’s the scoop on her ice cream birthday party on her very own playground! Now that I’m finally writing this post half a year later 😂, so much has changed. We had no idea that a few short weeks after her party, we would put an offer in on a new house and list ours for sale. It’s bittersweet recapping the final birthday post from our first home because honestly, not living there still stings a little lot. We love our new home- the location, our neighbors, etc. but I would be lying…

However, with Cory working for himself now, it freed up some time for us to take an actual vacation- like a full week of time together not on the mission field, something we haven’t had in years. With Cory able to make his own schedule, we finished with our fundraiser yard sale (we found out about our flights being canceled the day before the yard sale) then headed to Alabama to visit Cory’s mom the second…
Rwanda 2018 | Days 10 & 11
Hi Friends! Happy Friday- at least I think it’s Friday! To be honest, I don’t which way is up or which way is down these days. We’ve been quarantined for 7 weeks and very rarely do I know the day of the week. When the quarantine first started, I thought to myself “Now will be the perfect time to get caught up on all the blog post I want to write” but I have really struggled to find a new normal being at home with Baker all day and trying to get work done for my actual, full- time job. My sleep schedule is way off, my days go by…
