Hi.

I'm so glad you found your way to my little corner of the neighborhood! Pull up a chair and stay, and let's chat about life on the margins and loving Jesus and, obviously, where to find the best cheese dip and most life-changing books. 

A Very Merry Christmas in the Hood

Welcome to our little home. Our house is really not THAT little, but it certainly can feel little when it's just bursting with kiddos and friends. Which I love, but it makes "Decorating" a tricky balancing act between creating a cozy, beautiful space and making things family-and kiddos-friendly.

Since it's our first Christmas in this home, not to mention a Christmas that is viewed through a new lens after everything with Caden, I've absolutely loved making things festive around here. Although, more than anything else, we are focusing on making sure our house is full of JOY.

Decorating cookies, aka throwing sprinkles and spreading icing all over our house.
 Our Christmas cards strung across the barn door that still has no hardware . . . see how few cards I have? Send us more!
And here's our mantel and Christmas tree. Which is really the extent of our decorating this year.
Although I did throw in a few little berries/greenery/etc throughout the living room. Because why not?
This is in our dining room. Again, not the not-working-but-will-be-amazing-one-day barn door, currently serving as a Christmas card display.
 Twinkle is hanging out still. Although most days we forget to move him or anything. Jayci just thinks he's a lazy elf.

 Bye-bye now! Thanks for stopping in. Oh and in case you are wondering, you are LITERALLY always invited over . . . our house is always open! :-) Well, besides Monday. That's family day.
