Between the dirty diapers, cleaning up spills, buckling (and unbuckling) carseats, the amount of time spent in a kitchen - all while trying to not be a crazy woman because you can't even use the bathroom by yourself. Only to realize another week of this craziness begins--life can feel monotonous and mundane can't it?

But it's actually not.

Getting married, jumping right into ministry, opening my own salon, moving three times in a year, planting a church while having our first baby, then having three more babies (two of which are twins). And, like all of our lives, there is even way more to our story than what I've listed. But when you look back, life is actually this crazy, gracious, wild adventure the Lord gives us.

The night we found out we were having twins my mind wouldn't stop racing as my husband, two-year-old, and 10-month old were sound asleep in bed.  I spent the night googling all things "twin mom", and was left feeling paralyzed knowing I couldn't do this on my own. So, I started meeting with other twin moms. The thing I heard most often? These parents could hardly remember the first year. An entire year so vague in your memory due to the sleep deprivation and utter chaos. 

That's when the (UN)mundane life was created. I wanted a place where I could capture and remember the joys and hardships of this journey the Lord has called us to. A place to share my true thoughts of being a stay at home mommy now, while having four kids in three years. And (if I'm honest) so I can actually be able to tell my kids when they did what, because Lord knows I won't remember! But most importantly, this is an avenue to look back and see just how much the Lord has done in our lives and in my sanctification.

God has given us everything we need for life and godliness. To make the ordinary feel totally extraordinary. 

This is the beautiful, wonderful, not-always-easy but absolutely worth it (UN)mundane life.
