We are stoked to share the love, and support in ways we can! Watch the video below...

HubbyCam Episode: Boogying in the Rain and Thankfulness

This gray, wet day got me thinking about this year. A lot of this past year kinda seems like one “rainy” day after another. It really does have an impact on our mood and how we interact with others. But we have a choice of how we react. Coming up on Thanksgiving, it’s a great time to reflect on the things we’re grateful for. Even though this year has had a lot of challenges and obstacles to...

Create a Life-Giving Environment

Whether it’s our physical spaces, our communities and the people we spend the most time with, the food we consume, or even our social media feed…our environment is powerful. The good news is that in some way, shape, or form we also have a lot of power to create our environment to be beautiful and life-giving. In my conversation with Amy Purdy at our joint event, “Bouncing Back:

HubbyCam, Episode 2: A Glimpse into Our Lives

What is the HubbyCam? …Truly it’s the FamCam! This series is ultimately about our family. Bethany and I are excited to share more about what our family does and all the fun that we have. Family is so important. We’re not perfect. I’m not perfect – not a perfect dad or husband. But it’s fun to be able to step into that role. That’s where I feel passionate, and where I feel calling – to be a...

Preventative Health – Heavy on My Mind

This focus started in my later teen years and grew into a passion as I learned more. I see the effects of living healthy and it’s beautiful. A major bonus is the impact on our kids – they have great attitudes, energy...

Introducing the HubbyCam!

As Adam said in the video, our third child is due in just a few months, February 2021, so I’ll be going on maternity leave around then and not doing as much posting. But, when I go on maternity leave, Adam will post weekly Hubby Cam videos on our YouTube and Blog to give you more of an inside look into our lives! He talked about this in the video, but he’s such a great support to me.
