Boys Bedroom Makeover

This boys bedroom makeover post is sponsored by Kohl’s. I was paid for this post and received the included home goods as compensation. The time has come that I have been dreading & at the same time looking forward to. Joe is almost 12 and for the past year his used-to-be favorite set of Batman sheets have been in our storage room collecting dust. Since…

White Entryway Table
White Entryway Table by Utah lifestyle blogger By Jen Rose

I’m so excited to welcome this new white entryway table into our home! This is our first home and we have lived here for almost 2 years. When we moved in we were doing project after project & it is taking me awhile to figure out my style. We stained the floors darker, painted, replaced carpet, added new trim—-pretty much gave the house a facelift.…

Have Courage & Be Kind Printable

Today I’m sharing a darling printable from Paperelli! Courtney is one of my all time favorite people to work with! I love everything she makes and she is awesome to work with. I took my kids to see the movie Cinderella and we all absolutely loved it. I saw the preview numerous times with this quote being said by her mother, but I had no…

Easter Bunny String Art

Someone needs to hide the string from me! I’ve made a deer silhouette in numerous colors, a lion for my nephew’s nursery, the U.S.A, and now an Easter bunny string art piece. The thing I love about string art is you can really make anything you want. Simple or intricate, it looks so cool! This Easter bunny string art was the hardest one I’ve done yet.…

$25 Dresser Makeover

I was looking through pictures, organizing them and stumbled upon this steal of a deal dresser that I never posted about! I found it on a local Facebook group for $25! That never happens in the area where I was looking. It is sturdy and I was shocked that I was first in line for it. Even though it was white and I love love…

Vintage Hutch Makeover

Awhile ago I bought this desk and vintage hutch from a family who was moving away. I planned on buying a whole set, but when I got there not all of the pieces were what they said they were online…Happen to anyone before?! The guy was really nice and I was thrilled to walk away with this piece—not the color though. The vintage hutch was black…

Instagram post 17894444528530396 #ad Our 3 older kids are in the middle of tennis season & loving it! Their main request? Bring Nature Valley™ bars when I'm the mom in charge of snacks. It feels like a lot of our afternoons are spent by a court or on a field, running from school to practice, or to a game. I always have these on hand. Did you know that 1 in every 8 people face hunger, including nearly 12 million children? I hate to admit I had no idea the number was this staggering & heartbreaking. It touches every community and for the next couple of weeks, I will be stocking up on some of our family favorites on my trips to @walmart , where General Mills is donating to @feedingamerica . It is simple and small, but can make a difference. For every participating General Mills product purchased at Walmart between 4/18/22 and 5/15/22, General Mills will donate $0.10 to Feeding America® - enough to help Feeding America secure 1 meal on behalf of its member food banks – up to a maximum total donation of $1,500,000 in conjunction with this program. See Walmart.com/FightHunger for more information. #fighthungersparkchange #fighthunger @nature_valley http://bit.ly/3xSwFiu
Instagram post 17943826984931814 "Each of us will have our own Fridays—those days when the universe itself seems shattered and the shards of our world lie littered about us in pieces. We all will experience those broken times when it seems we can never be put together again. We will all have our Fridays. But I testify to you in the name of the One who conquered death—Sunday will come. In the darkness of our sorrow, Sunday will come. No matter our desperation, no matter our grief, Sunday will come. In this life or the next, Sunday will come." - Joseph B. Wirthlin . Holding onto hope that our “Sunday” will come & I’ll get to squeeze his sweet face again. Missing dad on our first Easter without him & holding onto the memories of the amazing Easter egg hunts at my parents house that he loved almost as much as he lived to celebrate his love for Christ.
Instagram post 17903600852517749 15 years ago, and some weeks (thanks to being sick), this boy came into the world and started me on my favorite adventure yet, motherhood. I had absolutely no idea what I was doing or how we were surviving, and can truthfully say the same is true 15 years later. You work hard, you play hard, and you really enjoy when your hard work pays off while dedicating yourself to try harder when you know there is room to do better. I feel like I’m raising my 15 year old dad from driving to tennis, golf, back to tennis & if there’s room, saving some time for skiing and basketball. Not only do I love you & believe in you times infinity, but I like you and can’t believe how cool of a person you are. I’m convinced everyday that you came the way you came & little of the person you are becoming has to do with our parenting. Thanks for reminding me when I have to sign up for tests, sports, for picking your battles wisely, and for saying thank you. Love you Joe Joe.
Instagram post 17928989710934587 May our hearts prepare Him room, our lives reflect His presence, our homes radiate His peace. ❤️ . We enjoyed a beautiful Christmas Sunday & we sure missed my dad today. He loved the festivities & celebrating the birth of Christ. Joe sported a couple of his holiday favorites, can you spot them? 🥰 Hopefully the suit will fit him next year. Thankful to my family for helping ease the sting that I knew I’d feel a little stronger today. Hope your weekend was beautiful and relaxing.
Instagram post 17862806336638809 [Ad] The kids & I headed to @DollarGeneral to stock up on all of our favorite Hershey treats so we could deliver them to some of our new neighbors & introduce ourselves. We set up our assembly line with REESE’S�� Peanut Butter Holiday Lights, Hershey's Filled Cane, and more! I'm not gonna lie, the kids definitely snuck the ICE BREAKERS Mints for school. It was such a fun family activity! Grab your favorite Hershey candy at @DollarGeneral & from now through 12/25/21, Save $3 when you purchase $10 worth of any Hershey Holiday Candy items. Either grab treats for your neighbors or make a treat board for all of your entertaining needs this month! #DollarGeneral #DollarGeneralFinds #Hersheys
Instagram post 18178522990083553 Thankful for the people who make my world go round & grateful for the time I get to spend with them. Especially if it includes board games & puzzles. I’m learning that both of those are my favorite wintertime activities. Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. ❤️ Pic by the talented @krissicookfilmsandphoto
Instagram post 17891534792398191 Throwing it back to one of my favorite boards that could be used for Halloween & Thanksgiving by using whatever white/cream treats you can find. I decorate with neutral pumpkins to save me time from having to decorate for 2 holidays. Such a fun board for snacking!🍁
Instagram post 17940581005675016 I don’t have to chase extraordinary moments to find happiness - it’s right in front of me if I’m paying attention and practicing gratitude. Brene Brown . Love our little crew & the simple moments we share.
Instagram post 17922300868874726 Broken. ❤️ To the first man I loved. The one who held my world in his hands. I never pictured it hurting this bad, but I guess with big love comes big grief. I held your hands 5 weeks ago & told you how loved you are by each of your 9 kids, your 20 almost 21 grandkids, your 1 almost 3 great grandkids & your devoted wife. I watched you pass peacefully from this life to the next & felt immense relief for you & at the same time completely empty for the rest of us left here. . Your loss has rearranged my world. I had a friend ask how many more days, years and months would have been sufficient & the truth is it would never be enough so I’m going to soak in the love & the connection I had with my dad for 36 years. I’m going to look for the small miracles & notice the moments that I know you are there. While I selfishly wanted you around for years to come, I’m so glad you are not in pain anymore. . I had a feeling this summer would be different & I have not a single regret. Since I struggle to be consistent here anyways 😉, stepping away has been so nice. Thank you for the sweet messages & texts. I have seen every one and we have felt so loved. I don’t know what this looks like moving forward, but I hope you’ll bare with me as I figure out how to transition to living with my dad as my angel in heaven instead of my rock on earth. I love you dad, every minute of everyday. ❤️
