Our Beautiful Mess bio picture

Welcome.

We are a family of three on the journey of getting to know ourselves and our God. Our life is not neat and tidy. We are learning that it's ok to not always "have it together." Because, in the midst of daily life - the adventures and the mundane, the laughter and the tears, the discipleship and the diapers - God is there. And He is at work. God is lovingly bringing purpose in the chaos and redemption in the struggles. We invite you into our story.  We hope to give you an authentic and honest glimpse of our life as we navigate one day to the next. It is our hope that you can relate to our story, and can better find God and grace everywhere you look. Welcome to Our Beautiful Mess.

 

Happy Birthday Shelby!

Our little Shelbs turned 2 today!

If you would hang out w/Shelby on her 2nd birthday, you would learn that she:

drinks agua, “pop”, “leche de vaca” (milk from a cow), and hot tea
pretends to be a baby lion
sings all of “twinkle twinkle little star” (or rather “tinkle tinkle little star”) by herself
doesn’t like brown crocodiles, but likes purple ones
requests the stories of noah, jonah, and namaan, from the bible
looks forward to watching “Dora” every morning
eats yogurt and eggs for breakfast
enjoys food more if she has “dippy-dippy” (especially ketchup) to go with it
prefers her hair in her eyes rather than clipped up
searches for the moon in the sky at night and during the day
jokes around by putting “nunu” at the end of words (mama-nunu, papa-nunu, puppy-nunu)
asks to play with the “bright-lite” (lite-bright)
thinks blenders are too loud,
and
LOVES her mama!

Shelby, our family is indescribably blessed because you are a part of it. We thank God that He gave you to us. We love you–Happy Birthday!!
