The Mennonite Mom

Real. Not Perfect. Just a mom with a camera, embracing and celebrating the beautifully imperfect journey of life. My videos can be as random as my personality. Whether Iโ€™m cooking, tackling a challenging project, embarking on a family adventure, or having front porch chats about faith, my hope is that Jesusโ€™ light shines through us in our everyday moments.

Videos posted on Fridays 2 PM EST. (normally every other week)

The Mennonite Mom

No, nothing bad has happened to us ๐Ÿ˜€ but I do apologize for dropping off without much word for months. ๐Ÿ˜• People have been messaging me concerned that something bad has happened so I'm popping in to wish you all a Happy New Year and letting you know we are doing well!

I've decided to share a video from our Private Group to all our email subscribers. It's a peek at some of our house addition, as well as an update for my plans for getting back on Youtube. If you want to see the unlisted video, make sure to subscribe to our email list (I don't spam your inbox), and we will send that email out on Monday, Jan. 5th.

God bless you all in the New Year, and I hope to see you all here again (hopefully before too long).

Not My Preferred Paceโ€ฆ But Still Grateful

The past 5 weeks have been a lot.
Not the slower, routine days I usually crave, but five weeks of go-go-go, barely-home, where-even-is-my-sanity kind of energy. ๐Ÿคช

And yetโ€ฆ thereโ€™s beauty tucked in the chaos. Excitement in the mess of a house addition, connections with family and friends amidst the never ending packing and unpacking. ๐Ÿ˜€
Moments of laughter, growth, grace, and even a few deep breaths if I catch them just right. ๐Ÿ˜‚

So Iโ€™m taking a little break here for a few weeks.
Trying to embrace the mess, live the story weโ€™re in, and trust the routine will return soon, Lord willing.

Hey friends, I wasn't able to get a video up today (due to a chunk of extra work that hit us unexpectedly, and also turning things off for a few days to just be with family). Thanks to Hilton's free night awards, we were able to spend a few days in the sunny south over school break. (I'm so grateful for the experiences credit cards have given us).

The children had great fun. Two of the highlights being "Herbie" the unfortunate hermit crab that the children found and played with for some time... and the big iguanas running everywhere, scaring us half to death.

Thanks for putting up with my random postings, and understanding as I try to prioritize family over youtube.

See you around!

Hey, hey friends! I'm on my 3rd attempt trying to get today's video uploaded. Trying not to get frustrated with these technical issues. It may not be posted tomorrow as it's a larger video and taking quite a few hours to upload. Thanks for your patience, but I think it's a fun one: Our last travel video in our Hawaii series. See you in a few!

I'm beyond grateful for the Father my husband is to our children! In light of Father's Day, we made a fun little reel for Mama Java. If interested, you can watch it out over on that page: https://youtu.be/3PjtmYJZKDU

What is your favorite thing about the your Dad or husband? I love how compassionate Nolan is, as well as always trying to lighten the mood with his humor!
