Stonewall Grandon

A year+ ago we tore out a huge stone fireplace that ran through the house. These big rocks were authentically 1970s and we really wanted to keep them incorporated into the house. We've used them to help solve one of the challenges of our location.




One of the tricky parts of our location is the driveway/parking. We've got kind of a long driveway over a bridge to get home, and it's shared with a neighbor on each side.

Earlier this summer we poured a new circle drive in front of the house to add some extra parking.


From digging the trench, setting the foundation, puzzle-piecing the rock, and mortaring it all together, Marta built this whole thing - and it really turned out great.

Two Baptisms


We had a very exciting weekend as Pierce & Cash were baptized! It's one of those milestone days that I've thought about even when my kids were really little.

With so many friends and family out to support them, you could tell these guys felt really special.

We put together this video for our friends to watch while we were changing out of our wet clothes. A lot of really great memories of our sweet boys.
