    A little news....

    Published: Apr 16, 2017 Β· Modified: Apr 27, 2021 by Laura Β· This post may contain affiliate links.

    Welcome to the world Mara Hope.

    Born on Friday, we are so grateful for our sweet baby girl. More info to come.

    For now, you will find me blissfuly snuggling my sweet girl while breathing in her newborn scent. There's nothing I love more, nowhere else I'd rather be. <3

        Thank you Erin! I have definitely loved taking a step back (and for a while a total break) from blogging to soak in my sweet girl!

      THIS IS THE BEST NEWS! It's amazing and such an incredible gift that she came on a weekend that so many all around the world celebrate new life in Christ because Jesus LIVES! And I love her name. How did you pick it?

      Welcome Sweet Mara!

      We celebrated Laura today by enjoying her baked Falafel and Carrot Cake at our Easter table.

      The Sandfords were missed at the Ryan Easter table, that's for sure!
