Today, instead of heading to church, we spent the morning at an elderly man’s home where the shrubbery and trees were overgrown and the outside of the home was filled with mildew. I spent the entire morning power washing the house, steps, windows, and gutters of the home. As I sprayed the side of theContinue reading “The Master Cleaner”

Kitchen Reveal!
As I prepare to move in (this Sunday!!!), I have been incredibly busy finishing up some last minute projects. I’ve purposefully waited to post pictures of the kitchen, because it has been the biggest transformation. I realize now that I don’t have very many good pictures of the kitchen. We are putting on the pullsContinue reading “Kitchen Reveal!”
Fire Check
Guys, so much transformation has been taking place at my little home! I’m so so excited! I was talking with my mom today. I think the biggest reason I’m excited to move in is just because I’m so excited about my house. My house. That’s just still so crazy. It’s been my empty canvas toContinue reading “Fire Check”
Time Flys
Wow, it’s been awhile. Summers seem to be incredibly busy no matter what stage of life you find yourself. I thought my summers would look a lot different/be slower since I’m now a full-time working adult, but this summer I haven’t stopped. My life has been consumed with work, free-lancing, renovating my new house, shoppingContinue reading “Time Flys”
Transition

It’s very different from Kenya. In Kenya many are just outContinue reading “The Ugandan People “

Abu Dhabi for a Day
Today we landed in Abu Dhabi, UAE! We have an overnight layover so we planned to get settled and then go out and see the city. After checking in, dad and I went to work out. As I played worship music out loud in the hotel “gymnasium”. I couldn’t help but think about the MiddleContinue reading “Abu Dhabi for a Day”
Reunited with the Red Dirt Roads
In just 2 days, I’ll head out to Uganda. I’ve been anticipating this day since I left Kenya/Uganda 2 years ago. Missions changes you. It shapes you. I left a large piece of my heart with the people, red dirt, and slow paced life of the Kenyans. I cannot wait to join my sister andContinue reading “Reunited with the Red Dirt Roads”
