About Me

Hey Y’all!

My name is Jess. I’m married to my best friend, Michael, and we have two children, Huck and Luna.

I’m an Alabama native turned Nevada resident. Living out west was never my dream because I’ve always treasured being close to family and growing old with my sisters. However, when I look outside my front window, I can’t help but gaze at the countryside where God has placed me and my family. We have mountainous views, long, snowy winters, and tall, California trees to enjoy when we want to go on a short drive.

My husband is a pastor at our sweet little church, and I enjoy hiking, going to the movies (by myself that is), and learning to be a better homemaker.

My life is hectic. I have a three and one year old. I don’t get much time to myself, and I don’t get much time to rest. This is a season, I know. I want to be fully present in my home, attuned to everyone’s needs, but sometimes I struggle to walk confidently in God’s will with joyous submission. I want to really own 100% of my responsibilities and thrive in my role as a wife, mom, homemaker, and employee (I work remotely full-time).

I invite you to walk with me through this path of making the most of where God has placed you. It has taken nearly 5 years of living out west to feel I have been given a sense of “place,” so I hope you’ll be encouraged to get busy with the time and tools you’ve been handed to make your home a haven for your family–a place where friends and family will want to return.

Hey y’all, I’m Jess.

About Me
Draw nearer to God with me as I make my home an inviting place for guests, a safe place for my children, a haven for my husband, and an atomsphere that welcomes God's grace in those tough moments.

Played out in the rain for two hours yesterday. Le Played out in the rain for two hours yesterday. Let the kids stay up past their bedtime to chase a spider. Counted the seconds between lightning and thunder. Put them to bed with dirty feet. 

I’ve been looking forward to summer as soon as it ended last year. So glad I get to share it with these two little chickens.

I love having a little boy. I love having a little boy.
I was so zoned in on my work that I totally missed I was so zoned in on my work that I totally missed when Huck found some styrofoam from a box I received. I looked up and was slightly horrified. 

It was too late to say no. 

It was too late to snatch that trash outta his hand. 

Instead, I took a moment to just enjoy their enjoyment. 

It took me a while to vacuum up the mess that nearly covered the floor, but one day I know I’ll be wishing I had more remnants of their childhood to clean up. 

One day I’ll hear the echos of my own voice in an empty home with no mess to clean, no baby to hold. 

So here’s your reminder to just let them make a mess every once in a while. It’ll be gone soon.
