Super Moon

Well, we took a few minutes to go outside and look at the super moon. It was noticeably brighter and it was fun to be a little bit crazy and let the kids go outside in their pjs. 



Sorry for the grainy photo. It was what we had.

Our Blessing

So I realized I had not posted in such a long time and thought I'd better fix that. 

We were thrilled to find out that we were expecting last year. Lots of anxiety dominated my mind because of loosing Lydia. We didn't share our good news publicly until I was more than 6 months along. I just didn't want to go through that all over again. 

We are pleased to introduce another member of our family, Grace Anne. 

She is a honey and I feel so thankful and blessed to be mothering an infant again. I love her so much!  I find it amazing how I can love each of my children so fully. Gives me a tiny glimpse of how much God loves all of us. 


What's for dinner?

Dinner was in the crockpot before breakfast even started. For me, this is a good sign that it's going to be a good day!

Slow Cooker Savory Pork Roast
4-5 lb. pork loin roast
1 large onion sliced
1 bay leaf
2 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp garlic powder

Place roast and onion in slow cooker. Add bay leaf, soy sauce and garlic powder. 

Cover. Cook on High for 1 hour then on Low for 6 hours. 

Slice and serve. 

This is really yummy and one of our favorites.
