Well hello, my name is Jennifer, and I’m so glad you’ve stopped by to visit my corner of the internet!

I’m a wife to my husband Don, and together we’ve been blessed with a beautifully blended family of six kids and quite a few grandkids. Our story isn’t the picture-perfect, “traditional” path of marriage, kids, and quiet routines. Instead, it’s a winding road of second chances, messy chapters, and God’s redeeming grace.

Don is 18 years older than me, a proud Veteran, and had three children before we ever met—the oldest not much younger than I am. I, on the other hand, had already walked through marriages, divorces, and seasons of deep brokenness. My story includes kids of my own that I brought to the table, addiction, DHS visits, and a whole lot of scars I once thought disqualified me.

But here’s the truth: God never wastes a story.
Even in my worst moments, He was weaving redemption. Today, I adore Him and love digging deep into His Word. In fact, I’m in the middle of editing several Bible studies I’ve written and can’t wait to share them with you.

Around here, you’ll read about our blended family chaos, homesteading adventures, rehabbing an old house, life in our church community, and the little everyday lessons God teaches along the way.

This is more than just a site—it’s a journey of faith, family, and finding beauty in the unexpected. I hope you’ll stick around, laugh with me, learn with me, and maybe even share your own story too.

Welcome to the adventure. 💜
