It’s Been a While

Well hey there, it’s been a minute.

I didn’t exactly plan to take a break from blogging, but life has a funny way of nudging us into slower seasons—even when we think we’ve got big plans. Since my last post, we’ve had a lot going on around here. Most notably… we welcomed a brand new baby to our crew! Annabelle joined us in January and is sweet, snuggly, and has added even more love (and chaos) to our already full life.

Between homeschooling the older kids, running our businesses, and raising 4-H steers out here in the country, this season has been both beautiful and bone-tired. I know so many of you get that.

But in the quiet moments—usually with a coffee in hand and baby girl snuggled up in my arms—I’ve been itching to write again. To share the messy, meaningful moments of this life we’re building. The honest stuff. The helpful stuff. And yes, probably a few “favorite things” lists too, because I’ve got some go-to’s I’ve been loving lately and I just love sharing these things with all y’all!

So here we are—back to blogging. It might not be perfectly scheduled, and it definitely won’t be perfectly curated, but it will be real. And hopefully encouraging, especially if you’re in the trenches of motherhood, rural life, or just trying to make things feel a little simpler and a little more you.

Thanks for sticking around—I’m so glad you’re here.

Until I blog again,

Alex
