hey! glad you are here!
this is where i document glimpses of our family's ordinary, crazy life. we believe that in the midst of the mundane and the seemingly out-of-control times, god is here. and beauty is here. and this beauty can draw our gaze toward god and transform dreariness into dancing (or at least into a brief, kind-of relieved, exhale)!

(though upon further reflection, i’m pretty sure the smoke signal was merely my neighbor burning the chicken on his grill. it’s a new grill, so he’s...
several weekends ago i helped my lovely bride set up a Lindsey Kliewer Photography display for a pregnancy/birth fair. I wondered how many people would attend an event like this. I was hoping more than 3. by the time it started, hundreds of enthusiastic “expecting” couples were lined up waiting to get in. and over...
we are not yet speeding off into the sunset, wind blowing through our hair, radio blasting, as the credits start to roll on this drama/action/adventure/romantic comedy that is this season of our life, but our situation has taken an encouraging turn, and we have some breathing room for a little while. we talked with our...
