Day 10 of 10 days of projects. The greatest of al

Day 10 of 10 days of projects. The greatest of all of my accomplishments in life has been to bring 3 beautiful girls into this world. My children are my life’s work, and truly my life’s purpose, and I am trying to do everything I know to raise them up to be happy, strong, capable daughters of God who will go forward and shine their light on a quickly darkening world. Charlotte’s cancer journey has brought about some incredible miracles. 90% of the growth on my Instagram account happened merely months before her diagnosis thanks in large part to my friends @honeybuilthome and @jordanpage . Looking back I now see that it was all orchestrated by a loving God that knew her story needed to be shared, her light needed to shine, and that she needed to be the proof and witness that miracles happen and that God loves us and knows us perfectly. We received good news at our last visit that the remaining cancer in her right eye had shrunk in half from the laser and freezing treatments given to her two weeks prior. The doctor determined that she did not need chemotherapy, and that we would confirm in the next appointment that the seeding in her right eye was dead. So for now, from what we can tell, there is a tiny bit of active cancer in her right eye that the doctor treated, and if it continues to respond the way it has been to the freezing that we may be looking at one or two more visits before the cancer is eradicated completely. We could not be more thrilled and relieved that she has been responding so well. We are so so thankful a thousand times over for all of your prayers that have carried us through this. Thank you for being here, thank you for your prayers, and thank you for your incredible generosity. You have truly made this space a place of refuge for us. I wish I could hug every one of you.

How’s that for a $26 faux tree?? I am LOVING how

How’s that for a $26 faux tree?? I am LOVING how this turned out, although now I’m thinking that if I did this again I’d like to go taller! And I could totally add more stems if I want to at any time. Really though, the sky is the limit! You could theoretically do this with any stems you can get your hands on! It was so much fun doing this dupe today with my friends
@lollyjaneblog
@blesserhouse
@ournestonpowell
@eyeinthedetail And it was so much fun seeing all their dupes too! If you didn’t see, go check out the amazing things they did today! So what do you think, would you try something like this??

Thinking back, 2020 seemed to be a super eventful

Thinking back, 2020 seemed to be a super eventful year for the world and country but a super uneventful year for the individual because of the shutdown. Stuart and I have prioritized making a photo book every year as a way to record our family history for our children and grandchildren, and putting together this year’s book from @mixbook has made us realize just how many exciting things we were able to do and be a part of. #ad Our girls LOVE looking through these books and remembering all the fun things we did and it makes my momma heart smile to see them laughing at all the silliness of daily life we captured. We could not believe how much easier @mixbook made the entire process! Use my code CRYSTEL50 to get 50% off your first book!” #mixbook

Behold, the power of PAINT! I am absolutely in lov

Behold, the power of PAINT! I am absolutely in love with how this fireplace has transformed. And to be quite honest, I designed it all around this beautiful faux Olive tree from @nearlynaturalfloral ! #ad True story, my father-in-law walked in yesterday and asked if I needed to water it. It looks SO real and I am so happy with it! Nearly Naturals is very aptly named, just sayin’. All the details for this fireplace makeover can be found in my story highlights under “painted fireplace” Next Project: Building a new kitchen table! Stay tuned! Paint color: Alabaster by Sherwin Williams, trim color: Gossamer Veil by Sherwin Williams #brickfireplace #paintedbrick #fireplacemantel #whitefireplace #whitebrick #fireplacedecor #fireplacemakeover
