We’ve been to 270 cities — and these are the ones We’ve been to 270 cities — and these are the ones we’d go back to again and again ✈️ 🚗 There’s so much of the world to explore, it takes a special place for us to want to return! Tell me which city you’d visit over and over 👇
God didn’t design marriage to run on leftovers. Le God didn’t design marriage to run on leftovers. Leftover time. Leftover energy. Leftover attention. He designed it with intention. Getting away with your spouse isn’t about escaping your family—it’s about strengthening the foundation your family stands on. When you step away from the noise, the routines, and the endless to-do lists, you remember why you chose each other in the first place. Rest restores what routine slowly drains. Connection renews what busyness quietly steals. And choosing time together? That’s not selfish. That’s stewardship. Your marriage matters. And protecting it is one of the most loving things you can do—for each other and your kids. 🤍
✨Just loving the little things in life… Like a kid ✨Just loving the little things in life… Like a kid-free trip. And a summer-long road trip. What “little” things in life do you love?
I really thought @life360 was for parenting. Turns I really thought @life360 was for parenting. Turns out it’s for my kids to ask: “Why are you at Target? Can you get me makeup remover wipes? “Why is Dad at Home Depot?” “Are y’all coming home soon?” Meanwhile, we haven’t checked their location in weeks 😂 Anyone else being tracked by their own kids? 👀📍
Dinner isn’t just about food in our house—it’s abo Dinner isn’t just about food in our house—it’s about formation. These 4 simple questions help our kids: ✨ look for the good in the day ✨ acknowledge the hard (and realize they can handle it) ✨ notice opportunities to serve others ✨ think of opportunities for growth We’re not aiming for perfect days—we’re raising kids who are aware, resilient, kind, and growing. Save this for tonight’s dinner 🤍 What’s one question you ask your kids regularly?
🥰 Date night looks different these days — but God 🥰 Date night looks different these days — but God still meets us in the middle of it. At our first Tampa Bay Lightning hockey game, the loudest reminder wasn’t the music or the crowd. It was three girls holding up signs that simply said: “Jesus loves you.” Marriage. Date nights. Everyday life. God belongs in all of it.
✨ Sometimes your marriage needs something new to w ✨ Sometimes your marriage needs something new to wake up connection again. Tired of the same restaurant, the same conversation, & the same routine? Trying new experiences together: ✅ creates fresh conversation ✅ builds shared memories ✅ brings back laughter + play ✅ strengthens emotional + romantic connection If your date nights are feeling 🥱 - don’t cancel your plans, reimagine them. ☝🏼Follow for more simple, intentional ways to reconnect in marriage.

These are simple, cheap date ideas that help you reconnect. And depending on your kids’ ages, you might not even need a sitter. If they’re little, asking a neighbor or friend to step in for 20 minutes might feel awkward… but what if it’s actually a blessing for them? Your marriage is worth showing up for—even in small, simple ways. 🤍 Which one are you doing this week? 👇🏼

Nearly 19 years + 3 kids later…sometimes date nigh Nearly 19 years + 3 kids later…sometimes date night looks like heels and a show in the city ✨ Sometimes it looks like sweatpants and a grocery cart 🛒 Both count. Both matter. Marriage doesn’t thrive on fancy plans—it thrives on showing up for each other. Be intentional. Even small moments of connection matter. Especially in the busy seasons. 🤍
2025 was a hard one for us. 😑 We’ve been waiting 2025 was a hard one for us. 😑 We’ve been waiting to close on our fixer-upper house for a year. Living there while seeing the vision of what it can be has been a challenge. 🏡We flipped our first two houses in Florida earlier in the year & we are still waiting to sell them. 🩻My husband started seeing patients after 14 months off. He had to start from zero patients in a saturated market. We are praying for God to show up big & grow his practice. 🧍‍♀️The kids have found friends, which is such a blessing. My husband & I are slowly starting to find friends. It can be lonely moving across the country & leaving your people! ✈️For the first time in over a decade, I don’t have a trip booked. This one is hardest for me because travel is such a big part of my life. Praying for God to move through me in my business this year so we can continue to see this amazing world. Even though it was a hard year, there was so so much good. Grateful for our highlight reel to look back on all the fun times. Thankful for God’s grace, provision, and strength!
