Hosting a Simple White Bridal Shower
Tips to Host the Perfect Simple White Bridal Shower featured by Utah lifestyle blog, By Jen Rose

I love hosting people! It brings me so much joy to be surrounded by people I love. I think it is because we grew up living near family and every week there was some type of “event.” It could be as simple as going to a siblings football game or a family member’s birthday dinner or extravagant as having a bunch of people over from…

Gold, White, & Pink Deer Birthday Party

I’m thrilled to be sharing my little girl’s deer birthday party today! She picked a character a long time ago and we couldn’t find much that we liked to go with it, so a few weeks ahead of time while I was folding laundry, it hit me. I already had a few deer decorations and the ideas started flowing. Come celebrate our dear Lynden became…

What We Wore – Baby Girl’s 1st Birthday Party

 I shared our little girl’s 1st birthday party a couple of days ago. It only took me 4 months to post, but better late than never right?! I had grand intentions of taking family pictures to use for Christmas cards until I found out it was going to be 109 degrees that day. Hence, I got out of the shower and didn’t even blow dry…

1st Birthday Party – Vintage Carousel Pony Theme

I’m finally getting around to sharing our sweet girl’s 1st birthday. This was a special one not only because she turned 1, but because her Uncle Ben was getting ready to head out on a mission for our church so it was a huge family affair. I threw it a month early so he could celebrate with her. I had a blast getting ready for…

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Birthday Party

My baby boy turned 6 recently! I still have a little negotiating room with him so when he said ninja party, I said how about Ninja Turtle birthday party and it was decided! My friend, Lora Knight, came and took pictures all morning for the Ninja Turtle birthday party. I love how they came out! She also made a quick video! It’s at the bottom…

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. ❤️
Instagram post 17901989534037136 So grateful to have spent the weekend celebrating the freedom we enjoy in this beautiful country! Family, friends, good food, fireworks & swimming is my idea of a weekend well spent. Hope you had a fun and safe 4th of July! 💙🇺🇸💙
Instagram post 17933248270527422 To my person on her birthday, plus a day 😉She is my 2nd mom. Teaches me. Builds me up. Calls me out. Has helped me immensely with my health. Loves my babies. Fills so many cups in my life. Calls me Jennifer & I know I’m in trouble. She listens to Mozart, Beethoven & Andrea Bocelli while I listen to Tim McGraw, & pretty much everything else. She knows every line from The Office & I can’t remember what I did this morning 🙈 She makes most things from scratch & I am in a season of easy. She’s trained her hair to not like a wash & my hair has been trained to not like dry shampoo. Loves a good trip just like I do. I don’t know what I did to deserve her, maybe it was her calm that God decided my parents deserved after me 😁 . To know her is to love her. Do you have a sister or a friend that has become a sister? What is your favorite thing to do with them? Our birthdays are a week apart so I’m feeling the itch to celebrate something together.
Instagram post 17873831060396197 Let it be hard. Let it be scary. And then do it anyway. . 5 days ago, I launched a live class about the beauty of Pinterest. I didn’t want to worry about the logistics of a course & for sure didn’t have a perfect “launch timeline.” In a nutshell, I impulsively put something out to stop myself from coming up with all the excuses. . What I do know is that for the past couple of years, I’ve loved talking about, trying, testing, and learning about Pinterest. As much as I love this visual app, I don’t love or recommend having all of your creative eggs in one basket. I love that content created in 2013 & 2017 are still bringing me blog traffic because they’ve gained massive traffic on Pinterest. Who knew a deer themed party would still be so on trend 8 years after it was thrown?! . The class is tomorrow evening & I am thrilled. I used to measure success here on the vanity metrics of how many could be reached & how many would engage. Somewhere along the way, a switch flipped & I started chatting like I was chatting to my good friend & not a crowd. So if there is one woman that I’ve struck a chord with about putting your content here and there, I hope to see you tomorrow. If there’s 5 of us, be ready for me to try and awkwardly plan a girls trip & send you cookies. I really owe you for letting me step into trying something new & helping me find some courage. 💙 Only took me 6 months after Suzy School, & feeling proud that it wasn’t a year.
