Super easy! I made them for our small group vegan taco bar night and we loved them…just a wee bit too small…the recipe makes about 9 tortillas, don’t try to make more or you’ll have tiny tortillas…and the flatter you can roll them, the better…mine were a little puffy…but no matter the size or thickness, they are still yummy and super simple! I left the dough overnight after mixing it  [ Read More ]

When we moved to California, one of the biggest things that I worried about was finding people, community, finding those amazing people who would surround our family with love and encouragement as we walk the everyday life, people who were there in a crisis whom I wouldn’t feel guilty asking for help because I knew that we would do the same for them. We found it and we are so  [ Read More ]

Finally! I feel normal again. It seems like a whirlwind for the last 2 months…being 9 months pregnant to having baby Lucy and bringing her home…traveling to Virginia to say goodbye to my mother-in-law…starting back to work…vacation at the coast…and being sick for a couple days…and then today. Today finally seems normal. I woke up, fed the kids, put Lucy down for a nap and gave Caedmon an Elmo DVD  [ Read More ]

123 05-03-2011 we spent the evening in Fresno, Lucy's first mini roadtrip...with friends visiting Erin in the hospital and then ChickFilA

Tonight was Lucy’s first roadtrip…we went to Fresno with our life group to visit a friend in the hospital and for some ChickFilA. She did great on the way there, but we had two massive screaming fits on the way home and had to stop to feed her once, she’s such a drama queen when she’s hungry! Caedmon had fun checking out the fountain at the hospital…”water!!!”…

Today was Serve Visalia, the annual Sunday where we don’t do church like a normal Sunday morning, instead we get together with other churches and go out into our community to make a difference. Dale joined our life group at Ivanhoe school to decorate for Star Testing Week like we did last year. I stayed with the kids and took them to church for the picnic after everyone finished their  [ Read More ]

We had small group tonight. Caedmon’s the only kid running around with all these adults who love him very much. He has a few buddies in the group. Tonight, he plopped down next to Brandon to watch the Francis Chan video with everyone. We feel so blessed here in Cali with the community we have around us; Caedmon has so many aunts and uncles here in Cali!

I love that Caedmon is so excited to go to church at Neighborhood. There are so many people there who love my boy and have created an amazing community around us since we moved here. It’s such a blessing!
