Our Rock Collection

IMG_1897 copy-1-2Painted RocksPainted Rocks

|| BUILD A ROCK COLLECTION || is one bucket list activity that we have been working on all summer. I have been gone to Market in Vegas for the last few days + while I was away, Jon built the kids a “golf ball wash”. I haven’t stopped hearing about it since I got home. I guess they rounded up all of the golf balls they could find, colored them with markers until I’m sure their hands were brighter than any of the balls, + put them all through a “golf ball wash” that they built themselves. Cool dad award? I vote yes! Since then, they have continued to put everything through their new wash bowl. A grape wash, block wash, bike wash, toothbrush wash, rock wash – – – etc. Jonah learned yesterday that a rock wash doesn’t quite work the same when you go to wash off the paint.

But yesterday as I was being introduced to our newest rock members (that were collected while I was gone) Jonah timidly asked me, “Mom, can I share my rocks with my friend?” Keep in mind this is the rock stockpile that Riggins isn’t allowed to come within ten feet of. When either of my kids have a charitable thought, instead of letting myself interfere, I try really hard to let them run with it. It doesn’t matter that I spent the morning cleaning the kitchen, had just finished scrubbing the marker off the living room cabinet or hid the markers + paints on top of the fridge out of sight out of reach, FOREVER!! 😉 Easier said than done. He noticed a sliver of sadness in his friend on Sunday + believed that sharing his rocks would help him feel better. J picked out a handful his “smoothest” rocks + painted them until they were just right. If you know Jonah, you also know how indecisive he is. This task was not taken lightly, but he did it! He also picked the plate to put them on. I’m so proud of him. He held them out in front of him so incredibly still as we drove to deliver them. The look on his face, his soft sentiment, the way he skipped back to the car afterwards, when he told Riggins he loved him, how genuinely he asked me if I had a friend I should take some rocks to. Worth the mess? Worth the stress? Absolutely. He taught me a big lesson yesterday. He always teaches me lessons.

  1. this is so precious + what a fun activity to do especially this winter when we are cooped up! i love following your precious family through IG and your blog. you are truly a light + it’s clear you are genuine and kind! i LOVE the rug you pictured here… any chance you’d share where it’s from?! it’s beautiful + i feel like i need it 🙂 happy friday!

    1. Hillary — Thank you. So very much! For taking the time to leave such heartfelt words for me on here. You made my day. I have been scaling back on sharing, but I absolutely adore + cherish the relationships that form on social media. It’s such a beautiful place. Thank you for adding to the light. Our rug is from West Elm. They have it there now still I’m sure. It’s sure been forgiving, but it’s still shedding like mad. Drives me bonkers, but I have really enjoyed it brightening up our home! Rugs sure are fun! Hope you find one you love as well! xx

  2. Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you? That’s right AUTOMATICALLY, just watch this 4minute video for more information at. Seo Plugin
