Welcome to the Hickstionary, a landing spot for all things H family.
I'm Heidi. He's Rusty. And together we have our beautiful babe, Beckett and a furry menace, Dakota.
I mostly use this space to brag about how awesome the kid is, whine about how naughty the dog is & share an occasional deep thought.
Thanks for hanging out with us as we figure out this [blessed] life!

If you are looking for my photography blog (where words don't tend to fall out of my mouth nearly as freely), visit {captured by} heidi.

Christmas Cookies




In preparation for Christmas, we made cookie goodies at our house the other night. Hillary and Morgan came up and Gabe & Ang brought the boys over. (Gabe opted to watch the ISU/Iowa game rather than make goodies). Here are some pictures of Jaden, Isaiah, and Morgan working hard on their Christmas cookies.

Functional Family Celebration






Grandma K, Aunt Peggi & Mickey, Amy, Jeff & Drew all came up for Christmas last Saturday. We have yet to be successful at getting a picture of all of the kids looking at the camera at the same time.... but we are getting closer! :) Less tears this time than last...
Dakota loved having all the company and getting lots of "people food!"

Love

Mostly Rusty (ok, and Dakota) posts. And wedding posts from "Show Us Your Life."

INSPIRATION

Amy's blog is so fun. I love seeing the pictures and updates as to what they are doing. She has an amazing talent for capturing life's precious moments on photograph and sharing them with everyone else. I don't promise to have as nice of a blog as she does, but I'll try to keep everyone updated on our sometimes way too busy lives. Stay tuned...

Faith

I believe....

For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. --John 3:16

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God. --Ephesians 2:8


I've posted some of my thoughts on the Complacency Challenge (you should join!).

Everything Else

A landing place for other posts that don't quite fit. DIY? Photography? Quotes? Maybe even Dakota will start showing up in here rather than in other random categories....
