Growing up, I often said "I wished I had a corner," meaning I wanted a little hideaway where I could get alone and just BE. It got to be kind of a joke in the family, but they understood what I meant - a spot just for me; to read, journal, garden, enjoy music, meditate on life, or pray. The "corner" I longed for wasn't even an actual place, but more, the opportunity to do those things I love. So, welcome and see what is going on in our family's corner!

Springtime is coming!
Our first daffodils are blooming and make such a bright spot in the otherwise dreary days here at the end of winter. Abigail and Elijah posed for me one chilly day, so we could document and remind ourselve that springtime really is coming!
Recently we have had some crazy rainy weather, but a few days of sunshine mixed in, which have helped keep us sane. We're so thankful for that! Last week we had a playdate with our school group, and Elijah taught himself to ride a scooter there at the park. It was amazingly simple looking for our sweet two year old. We were so proud and impressed! We also went to Aldridge Gardens as a family that weekend to soak up some sun and enjoy the beautiful hiking trail. Here are a few photos of our biggest kids. Owen stayed snuggled inside the Moby wrap the whole time, but he enjoyed it too. :-)
Yesterday we experienced a true March weather day in Alabama. We were at the farm belonging to a friend's family, and had sunshine, clouds, rain, drizzle, and wind, but thankfully no snow. It was a fun day despite the mud (or maybe because of the mud!) and the kids especially enjoyed riding the fun vehicles around the pasture. We cooked out over the fire, and generally just enjoyed awesome fellowship. We love the outdoors and spending it with friends and family make it even better!
