FIVE FRIDAY FAVORITES

Hello there, happy happy Friday! It's been months and months since I've shared Five Friday Favorites with you, excited for this roundup today!  Emily is coming home for Spring Break today (for a few days at least before she heads out with friends) and I'm working on an upcoming campaign that Caleb and Kenzi are a part of, excited to be with all of them today!  But let's get on with some current favorites first... I've had these white jeans  for quite a while and they are winners!  I prefer this slightly flared silhouette to a the wide-leg trend. They have enough stretch to be comfortable but they hold their shape and don't stretch out after a few hours.  I'm 5'7" and these are the regular length on me.  They are just right for sneakers or sandals but I also wear them to church often with heels and the length still works for those too.  I am usually an 8 or 10 in pants depending on style and brand, and I'm wearing a 10 in these.  They are higher ...

SPRING PORCH DECORATIONS WITH BUNNY DOOR HANGER

This time of year is always tricky for me to decorate my porch.  The Kimberly Queen ferns that I always have on my porch through the Summer won't be available until sometime later in April and we're not past possible night time freezing temps yet, so I always resort to pulling out my faux topiaries for a few months after Christmas. Here's where I started after all of the Christmas decorations were taken down, looking pretty plain! 🙁  I've had a pair of large ginger jars on my porch for a while, and the ginger jar door hanger that I've used for several years just didn't seem right with them.   So, I've been needing something different.  I saw this giant bunny at Hobby Lobby last week and knew I wanted him to hang on the door as soon as I saw him!  However, I had to make some modifications.  He's designed to stand and doesn't have any kind of hanging hardware on the back, so I fixed that!   First, because it's not really my thing, I used some pli...

ANTHROPOLOGIE EXTRA 40% OFF SALE SELECTIONS- MY BEST PICKS!

If you read through all of yesterday's post , at the end I mentioned I'd share a bit of my Spring Porch with you today.  Well... this morning I noticed that Anthropologie has a huge extra 40% off their Sale section going, and I couldn't resist combing through it to share with you!  The best things and deals will go fast (two things in my cart sold out before I finished shopping), so I didn't want to wait until tomorrow to share with you.  So, Spring Porch tomorrow... promise!  😊  (Product photos are interactive, just click on one if you are interested in seeing details about the item.) Home So many good things here!  Many of the things I chose were with the thought that they would be great gifts to stock up on, you can never go wrong with a beautiful book or something useful like the darling $9 dishcloth sets.  Now that my shoulder is better, I want to try playing pickle ball... maybe one of these darling paddles will help motivate me to get started- ha!  JavaScript ...

HEY THERE, LET'S CATCH UP!

Well hello... it's been a minute!  I haven't been active here or on social media since Christmas. Thank you so much to those of you who reached out to check on me.  All is well!  We had a nice- but really different without my Dad- holiday season.  We celebrated with both extended families before Christmas, then had our little family Christmas on the 26th since we were working around our nurses' schedules.   We went out on New Year's Eve for the first time in years- had fun at a Sunday School class party at a friend's house!  🥳 I did not plan to be away this long or intentionally just disappear with no word, but after the holidays I found myself in need of a break from continually thinking about what was next here or what I was going to post.  Last year was such a roller coaster of ups and downs and I tried to keep posting pretty regularly throughout it all, but I think it all caught up with me and honestly I just lost interest in posting for a while.   I initially ...

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Praying for you and yours to have the Merriest Christmas and a joyous holiday season!   "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.  We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." -John 1:14 "For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on His shoulders.  And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." -Isaiah 9:6 This Christmas, I am confident that our ONLY true hope, comfort, and peace in the midst of any circumstances is found in Jesus.  I am so grateful for the Father's indescribable gift to us- His only son- and that through a personal relationship with Him we can have eternal salvation and the joy that only He can bring in this life!  My love to you all this season, and as always thank you for being here! 💖...
