The Way Home

Traveling through life documenting what matters most to our home.

2020 Auburn Family Portrait Day

It was a pleasure getting to be in Auburn a few weeks ago for 2020 Auburn Family Portrait Day at Auburn Oaks Farm. Paula Davis organized Sarah Van Hecke Photography, Paula Davis Lifestyle Photographer, and myself to donate our time and skills to raise money to help fund Christian adoptions through Sacred Selections.

I enjoyed getting to see many couples and growing families that we knew from our time in Auburn, as well as meet new local families. Many of these fifteen families have themselves been blessed by the gift of adoption.

We drove down to Auburn as a family and took the girls by the places we lived in Auburn and the school where I started my teaching career. A lot has changed in the last 20 years!

Auburn had their first win of the season, so we ended our evening checking out Toomer’s Corner in all its TP’d glory.

2020 Auburn Family Portrait Day

For those who joined me last year for Fall Family Portraits in Birmingham, this is the sweet baby boy you helped bring home to his forever family. One woman’s brave sacrifice yielded one of the best Christmas blessings for this family and a host of “mamas” to love on this little guy in the middle.

I believe 2020 Auburn Family Portrait Day was a success!

I have already been thinking of ways to bring this multi photographer fundraising event concept to the Birmingham area. Let me know if you would like to be one of the first to know when a similar event is planned, and I will make sure you get first pick of a session slot.

Spread the love

The Next Ten Years

Around this time of year, I always reflect back on this compilation of Holiday Cards I produced for my parents over the years and thought it was time I started a new post to house the next 10 years of life at Arkadelphia Acres for my parents. Each year we continue the tradition of incorporating […]

She Will Be Missed

As I began thinking about playing along with the 2024 Spoiled Rotten Photography Personal Projects, I knew the subjects I wanted to focus on. The bond that Savannah has with our dog, Daisy. Daisy and Savannah will both miss each other next year when Savannah heads off to college! I came across this image on […]

We Praise God Through the Storm… While we would We Praise God Through the Storm…

While we would have loved to have Savannah home with us for nearly a week for a “hurrication”, a couple circumstances kept her on Florida College’s campus with a little less than half the students. We felt confident in the structural stability of the dorms and the higher ground in Temple Terrace. She was prepped and prepared for worse case scenarios and had her roommate as a companion. They had a trial run with effects from Helene just 2 weeks ago. 

I can confidently say the Florida College campus along the Hillsborough River was probably one of the most prayed over areas in the state of Florida. 

Yesterday, just hours before Milton made landfall, a group of FC moms, grandmothers, and friends met up on zoom to storm the gates of heaven with prayers for comfort and protection for our children and campus. Through it all, we were in agreement that God would be glorified through the storm and in the aftermath.

Milton made landfall sooner than projected and kept moving Eastward without stalling. While the winds and rain raged for 4+ hours, the students were able to go to bed, knowing the storm had passed and they were dry and never lost power! 

The community in central Florida is strong and I have no doubt there will be plenty of kingdom work to be done and ways to serve others in the coming days to help with clean up efforts from flooding and trees down. 

Thank you to close friends and family who were checking on us and her leading up to the storm. We felt those prayers of comfort.

This will be a memory Savannah will carry with her the rest of her life and a testament to build her faith and ability to weather the storms of life clinging to God through prayer.

One thing I LOVE about NW Arkansas are the miles of paved pathways and trails! After running a mile to the @airshipcoffee yesterday, I had to go back and run 3 miles before treating myself to another cup of coffee today.
