“…And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.”

Ephesians 3:17-18

About Us

Kristen & Naomi

About Kristen
I recently decided to be a stay-at-home momma and am taking a brief hiatus from my career as a full time student. I am working on my second degree and one day…one day I will get my hands on it.  I am happily married to the love of my life and hope that he never figures out that I got the better end of the deal.  If I had it my way, I would cook, bake, and spend time outside being active all day, every day.  I try to include God in each moment of my life and hopefully one day I will be able to take the word “try” out of this sentence.


About Naomi

I am a mom, wife, and kindergarten teacher. I have been happily married for (almost) ten years! Two years ago my husband and I were blessed with the most amazing little boy. The day of his birth our world changed orbit and began to revolve around all things baby. He is the love of our life and still the focus of most of our attention. I love spending time with my family and friends. I enjoy cooking and eating and consider myself a good cook, but in no way a gourmet chef. We eat homemade meals most nights and sitting around the table with my family is my favorite part of the day.

About Roots-to-Grow
Roots-to-Grow is a joint effort between sister-in-law’s Naomi and Kristen (us!).  We have always shared family stories, recipes, budgeting tips, and creative ideas with one another and recently came up with the idea of sharing these stories and ideas here, in hopes of inspiring others.  We are new mothers with young families and it has become the desire of our hearts to root our families in God’s deep love. Let us be quick to admit that we are still learning, but we hope you will join us on this journey as we grow each day rooted in Christ's love.
