WE ARE brown eyes plus blue

And this blog is where I share a little of our life.

Married to the love of my life and mommy to five great kiddos. I've got the brown eyes, he has the blue.

I'm a small time photographer, full time homeschool mama, cook, chauffeur, activity coordinator and peace negotiator.

We're striving to live our life simply, but with a family of seven it's a conundrum how to make that ideal a reality.

I love to try new things, especially recipes's and unique food,

My favorite way to start my day is with a short mobility stretching routine, then sipping on a cup of coffee reading God's word.

We're currently living in our third home; our first was a traditional ranch "starter" house, the second a fixer-upper farm house, and our current home is one that Clint and I designed and built. I've thoroughly enjoyed turning each house into a home, coming up with creative solutions to problems, and figuring out ways to utilize every space. (I hate wasted space)

I always have an idea or two....or ten....on the back burner. Sometimes they happen, usually they don't, but it's fun just dreaming about it.

 

A good mix of Scandinavian and European design with some good 'ol American farmhouse thrown in is my cup o' tea.
