As we reach the end of the year and reflect on all of the HUGE things that happened here at the Point, I am amazed at what God did. He unexpectedly remodeled our house, married off another daughter, added a new granddaughter to the family and grew my Young Living business. I started 2018 with…
Last January we started a kitchen remodel. The fridge had died a sad, miserable death and our countertops were broken in several places so it was time to do some updating. There were several challenges. First, we had a smallish budget. Refrigerators are apparently half made of gold these days and I wanted concrete countertops,…
I’ve been working my way through the house for the past few weeks, trying to show you all the newness after our house fire. I’ve shared our Harry Potter bedroom for my teenage boys, their newly remodeled tiny bathroom, the travel themed boys’ bedroom, our hipster daughter’s room and my front porch. And now we…
As we go through the house showing you all of the changes we’ve made since the house fire I wonder why I didn’t just do this stuff before. Why did it take a fire to get me to thoroughly clean out my closet or get rid of junk? It’s been so freeing to completely purge. …
FINALLY I have been able to do something with my house that isn’t related to the house fire recovery! I’ve been waiting for this day! Ready to feel more festive and normal.

This post contains affiliate links. What’s it like when your teenage boys ask you if they can have a Harry Potter room? Well….it’s confusing. On one hand you’re thrilled that they love to read and want to be surrounded by literary characters. On the other hand you know that everything you’ve ever seen with that…
We are so, so close to getting our house finished and even starting to take some pics to share. Hopefully by this time next week I will start showing you rooms that have been completely redone and it’s exciting (to me at least). Redoing a house is one of those things that teases you. You…
So far it’s been a banner year here at the Point. Between the house fire in January and one daughter getting engaged and another having a baby and my car dying and having no fridge for months….and that’s just the highlight reel. I have hundreds of other smaller disasters happening all around me all the…
Well it’s been a while since I blogged. I discovered that I can’t live through a fire recovery AND keep up with writing. It’s one or the other. So many of y’all have reached out to me to ask how we are doing and it blesses my heart! You’re the kindest people on the planet….
