Happy Thanksgiving, friends! I am thankful for many things, and these three (plus the little one in my tummy) are at the top of my list. 🖤

Just a few more weeks.🤍

I can’t help but reflect on this time last year, and how this year has looked so much different than I expected. And I’m not even referring to the pandemic... but specifically for our family. We thought we would be bringing home a baby in June. This time last year I was 10 weeks pregnant, feeling tired, nauseous and keeping the secret of a new baby on the way between only close friends and family. But God’s plans were different than mine.

As I approach my due date, which is also the date (one year later) of my surgery from our miscarriage, I can’t help but be in awe of God’s provision and faithfulness.

I say all of this to say, if you’re hurting right now, take heart dear friend. This is only part of your story. God sees the whole picture - trust Him. That doesn’t make the hurt disappear but it does give you hope for your future. His plans are good and He is faithful. Trust Him, His timing and His faithfulness over what you can see of your current circumstances.

And shoot me a message if you need a friend to pray for you. I got you, girl. xo

Happy Monday! 🤍 This weekend I tackled all the kids closets - sorting and organizing clothes and doing tons of laundry (well, Kyle did the laundry 🤣) and getting baby boys stuff all ready to go. Oh and we cleaned out and organized our pantry and are building a unit for our mudroom closet.... 😅 #nesting is an understatement. 🤪

Is this normal?!?

Starting a new tradition this Christmas as a famil

Starting a new tradition this Christmas as a family and I can’t help but think it’s the perfect year to do it.

Have you heard of @thegivingmanger? If you haven’t, it’s an “activity” where you read a book as a family, and then from December 1st - the 25th you find ways to serve for your neighbors, friends, family and each other.

I love that it is teaching our girls to have hearts for others and to keep their eyes open for opportunities to serve them. Obviously with the limitations that we have this year we may have to get a little creative, but I still think this is such an important lesson and reminder for us all. ❤️ I checked and you can now order this kit on Amazon and it will arrive in just a few days (before 12/1)!

Would love to hear if your family has done this in previous years and how you’ve liked it (or even creative ways you’ve served!) tell me below! 👇🏼

There are beginning to be little corners of Christ

There are beginning to be little corners of Christmas all over our house and I love it! Other than the playroom, so far I’ve been keeping it pretty neutral with greens, blacks & whites and cozy textures. 🤍

Remember when I was doing so well keeping up with #tidbittuesdaywithkatie 🙈 ya.. me too 🤣 well here is my tip (on a Wednesday night 🤷🏻‍♀️) - avoid sparkle when it comes to holiday stems and keep it as “natural” looking as possible! You will avoid the mess, be able to use the greenery after Christmas and can bring in the festive pops in other ways!

Another tip - go bigger with vases and taller with stems than you think! Scale is everything! ✨

It’s @kyleschlesser’s birthday and it’s about to get mooshy. 🤍 (you’ve been warned 😂)

More than ever before, I see all sides of Kyle. Being married, raising kids and owning a business together means we spend a *lot* of time together and juggle many roles. And even still, I have never respected, loved or enjoyed him more. He works harder than anyone I know, then comes home and pours every ounce of himself into our daughters.. only to go back to work after they are asleep. He is patient, loving, fun, consistent, gentle and strong. To know him is to love him!

Happy birthday Kyle Steven! You are the real MVP and I can’t wait to see you raise our SON! 💙

Personally, I like to think I don’t “skip” thanksgiving. I just prefer it to have a little more twinkle! Most years I refrain from pulling out my Christmas decor with red elements until after thanksgiving (this pic is from last November!) - and stick with the neutral colors until then (and wait on stockings, too!). How about you? Do you go full-on Christmas come November, a little bit of a mix like me or hold out until after Thanksgiving?!
