Meat Recipe:
Wrap various meats (I used Italian sausage pieces, 'Lil Smokies, and chicken--- my favorite) with a third of a strip of bacon and secure with toothpicks.
Place on a single layer on a foiled lined and greased jelly roll pan.
Sprinkle meat liberally with:
1 c. brown sugar
3 tsp. ground mustard
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/8 tsp. cayenne (optional)
Bake in the oven at 375° for 30-45 minutes (watch carefully. You want the bacon slightly crispy and the chicken completely cooked, but no burnt bottoms!
Serve with this dip:
1 1/3 c. mayo
2 tbsp. water
2 tbsp. cider vinegar
1 tsp. each of salt, garlic powder, thyme
2 tsp. sugar

All spouses fuss, don't sweat it! And if your kids do see a fuss, just make sure they see the apologies, the hugs and that you can forgive and still love each other. That's real life my friend and part of any relationship. When we show each other forgiveness we teach our children a very valuable lesson. I try to keep our kids out of big disagreements we have, but they are far more observant they we often realize, so I make certain to let them know how much Daddy and I love each other.
Keep up the good work; it's ok to have a private life! I just like to "hang out" with you while I cook and clean and do all the monotonous mom tasks, thanks for being there!
Aww thanks! It's going to be a struggle to model healthy conflict as pur kids get older and understand more, but it's super important to see that are always united in the end and love each other.
Megan, I think you are a lovely wife and mom. I so enjoy watching your life. I have. been married 49 years and counting...we bicker and our “kids” now 40 and 43 have witnessed it many times over. But we are best friends still and I can’t imagine life without him. Never had a life of my own, really. Lived with my parents and married at 19.
I came to say the same thing. Kids need to see that it’s okay to have disagreements, and that it doesn’t mean that you don’t still love each other. It is also helpful for them to see how to work through a disagreement so they know how to work through their own issues when they are older. I have 5 kids, ages 4,6,12,14,15 and they have all seen fights or arguments, but they have also have seen us apologizing and asking for forgiveness and praying about it together.
@@Maililnajul same here. From Mom's house at 18 to married & with a child 10 mo later.

I really applaud you for being honest and REAL! I know other youtubers who I almost can't watch because I know they are not always what they appear to be on youtube. That being said, yes, you do deserve privacy and you don't have to put everything that's going on out there for people to see. Thanks for your vulnerability!
Well, you are an excellent hostess, I'm sure your friends appreciate you....speaking from 31 years of married life, you will have more conflict from time to time. It's okay, you are both human.....still happens with us. Work it out , move on ,forgive and love.....thanks for blessing us with your open heart...God bless Megan
Thank you Karen!🧡
Karen Smith so true. Married 31 yrs here too. You told her right 😂😂
I enjoy your DITL's so much. Your "confession" was so encouraging because it makes me feel normal to have arguments with my husband or have a bad day. Thank you.
Megan! Your church’s singing was SO beautiful!! I’m so thankful you share your Mennonite life with us!
I'm 29 now, and would love nothing more than to be a mother, but I'm still yet to find a man that will love me. Praying that the new year brings me a step closer to my dream life
sophie, patience is one of THE hardest virtues to overcome and or accept. Always remember to love yourself, stay true to yourself, and keep your heart and eyes open as you never know when “the one” will show. Think outside the box a little too... if you see fit, remember you don’t HAVE to have a significant other to have children and become a mother. Go after your dreams! Many blessings ❤️
Aww this is so hard. We like to think we can control our dreams, and sometimes it doesn't work out the way we want it to! Praying for good news from you I'm 2020🧡
Pray and he will come. The time has to be right and I know not knowing when that will be is difficult 🙏🏼❤️
Maybe the Lord is calling you to other things
sophie I feel you! Same situation though I‘m only 27 😂 Ok till recently I didn‘t really think it‘s the right time to be a mother but I‘ve always known I want to be one one day. Well still I will wait some years I guess. I‘ve just graduated from law school but sooner or later I need to fina a man 😅😬
Girl. I feel this so much. Thank you for being open about it. I struggle so much with sharing the hard stuff because I don’t want to be a downer, but also don’t want people to think life is all roses and feel like anything is wrong with THEIR life. You are a breath of fresh air in this space and I so appreciate you!
You are not crazy and you don’t need to get your act together. Don’t say that about yourself. Spare yourself some grace. Lovely video. Thank you.
After almost 19 years of marriage. My husband and I still have our "discussions"... it is just part of learning and growing as a couple, as a family, and as a Christian. 😁🥴😍
How you set up the crafting tables was so cute!
After 49 years of marriage there have been many ups and down. But hang in there. We each have different personalities and they sometimes do not mesh together. But live is good.❤️
I loved how your party activities came together. You do a really good job of decorating and making things beautiful. The table and craft supplies looked gorgeous all laid out. They were their own centerpieces!
To cut down cost on baby clothes, my friends and I share! When one child grows out of something, we pass the clothes on to someone else that can use them!
We know you have a real life outside of your channel. There is nothing wrong with making your channel a positive place. I like the saying that we are imperfectly perfect!!
Thank you for your realness in everything you do. Thank you for your transparency in letting us know that you too have your ups and downs as a woman, a mother, a Christian and a wife. Some people who are on UA-cam can get swept away with their ego and only want to portray a perfect life in front of the camera but it's important to let others know that life isn't always just what you see but at the same time knowing what things you should keep private. You truly are a sweet person who's someone I can connect with in many ways. Many blessings to you and your sweet family during this wonderful time of year where we celebrate our savior's birth. Merry Christmas!
Thanks for this sweet comment! Life definitely gets "real" some days.
I have noticed that people let out their stress on the person who they love the most, and who they believe loves them the most. There is a need to let it out because it is better than keeping it in. How can we 'grow' otherwise?
Megan you are perfectly normal. We all fight with our partner. If you did not, I would actually be more concerned. Nobody is perfect. Just make sure to always make up again. And yes, having a big fight in front of the kids is something you want to avoid because they get much more of it than you think they do - regardless of their age. My wife and I always take the fighting into the garage..:-)
Aww thanks! It's going to be a struggle to model healthy conflict as pur kids get older and understand more, but it's super important to see that are always united in the end and love each other.
This is why we love you Megan, you are real and you don’t pretend to be anything else. I need to do more of that in my life, find the balance between privacy but also letting friends know that my life isn’t perfect and I do have bad days and that it is ok to have bad days, it’s all part of life.
I respect your honesty 😊
You are perfect even with your perceived imperfections. Misunderstandings between individuals are normal, it's how you resolve those that is important. I do not think you have to divulge every aspect of your personal life just because you are on YT. Great job with your channel, I love it. I feel like you are getting great joy out of life. All best. P.S. I'm 71 yo....❤
I admire you for keeping it real. When I was a young mom, there was a time when I had a perfectly spotless house and especially so when we were having guests. I loved the compliments, and my pride swelled when people would comment on how adorably dressed and matching our kids all were, or how we arrived at church on time, and how easily our kids all went to bed at night. However, I was convicted one day when guests remarked that we had a lot of children, but that nothing was out of place and that they didn’t see any toys!!. My husband said “we have toys, but she doesn’t let them play with them”.
I realized that there was some truth to that and I felt sad, because I had the toys so organized and out of sight, and would only give the kids a few to play with at a time. People also didn’t see me yelling at the kids or snapping at my husband in order to keep up the appearance that I had great skill.. The Lord worked on my heart and we made a playroom where the kids could be kids and play with all of the toys, and I found a balance of being a keeper at home without being pretentious and pretending I had it all together. I learned that messes are ok, when attitudes ( mine) were good, and fun memories were being made❤️! God was more glorified when I humbled myself, and realized that apart from Him I could do no good thing, and I became a more fun mom who relaxed and enjoyed my family!. Our children are grown, but our younger kids (we had 9) have much more positive memories of me than my older kids do, that’s for sure! You’re doing a great job, Megan! It’s not always easy but it’s such an honor, and with the Lord it can be managed well! Again, thank you for your transparency !
TY for this very real comment. Glad for you and your family that you took this route.
Wow! Thank you for that story! It's so good to keep things in perspective. And yes! I love our toy room! I clean it up once a week and the kids can play away and it doesn't bother me!
Aww yeah ur confession just makes you show more human and that it’s ok.. marriage isn’t always going to be sweet music and starry skies.. occcasionally earthquakes happen... I know my husband and I when we’ve had our first arguments it was kind of a shocker to me but it happens and we’ve resolved it..we make a purpose to not go to bed angry at each other. Many hugs ur way.
I know this is an old video, but your "confession" really touched my heart. You absolutely deserve privacy, and it is also helpful to talk about challenges in a small way that feels comfortable to you. Thank you for the many ways you enrich my life as a wife and mother (among the other hats I wear).
You should never feel bad about living real life you are adorable and a very down to earth person. Thank you for sharing your life with us. Just keep doing what your doing. And keep on being yourself. You got this girl. What I do on Sunday? I go to church and serve coffee so that others can go in and enjoy and receive the word of the lord. Then I will go shopping and relax or go home and watch some football with my husband..I love the shots you take of the country side. I was raised in that part of the state and Iam Pennsylvania Dutch It remindes me of my childhood home.
My tip for the clothes shopping. This is what i did for my granddaughter. At the end of the seasons when Walmart marks things down to a dollar or so, I would go and buy a bunch of stuff the next size up from what she was currently wearing. Saved me tons of money and she would have new clothes for barely any money. Just found you today, am loving your vlogs.
“Easy like Sunday morning” is from a Lionel Ritchie song.
I have been married for thirty years. The best advice I ever got and can pass on to someone else is: You'll have your disagreements and arguements, but learn to compromise and move on. Above all, don't keep score.
Totally on never keep score!! That will tear a couple apart
Amen on the not keeping score! None of us are perfect. If we’re lucky we get a new day to try and be our best again.
Seeing you get everything ready really made miss my felllowship. As far as hosting, there was never a better time to blow than just before company arrives. I remember once one of friend’s kid said for all to hear that her mom and dad fight every Sunday afternoon! At first the mom was embarrassed but then it totally opened a door for all of us talk about it. And we all had certain times when we get frazzled. When we knew one sister was having a hard time, one of us would make plans for that family to come over for lunch that Sunday.
Megan no one is perfect. As long as you talk out your conflicts. You are on a journey in this life working toward what GOD has for you....keep the goal in sight and everything else GOD will help you handle. GOD Bless you and your family. Shalom
I enjoyed this video so much. Love how you opened with who came up with easy like Sunday morning. I feel ya. Also, I appreciate your honesty. Life isn't perfect and I think social media skews our viewpoint.
I know this vlog is older but I’m relatively new to your channel (and Love it) and sometimes I watch older episodes because I’m sad/having bad day with husband and that’s actually why I watched today, big fight. And seeing you “confess” about your situation was so genuine and real and me me feel so less alone! I cried, felt relieved , Thank You for keeping it real because it really helped me today! God Bless You and Your Family!
You are doing a fantastic job as a wife and mother! It's hard sometimes. I too have a 3 year old and a 1 year old (and husband!) and life isn't always perfect. Take care of yourself and don't ever feel bad for being human;)
I think that craft was so nice, it seemed like a good time. And the food looked amazingly food. Don t stress about the rest your doing great, no one is perfect.
Megan, I loved your craft party ideas. Very cute! Regarding the end of the video: thank you for your honesty. Indeed, you are a real person and I appreciate you for opening up to us. Life is not perfect but we can always strive for happiness. I think you give us that! ❤️
Thanks for your honesty! I love your videos. On Sundays I go to church and then usually come home and try to get a jump start on my week and relax a bit. My kids are grown.
Dear Megan, did you just tell us your human and life is prefect. We all have those days that life and relationships can be challenging but it’s how we handle those challenges that show our character. I just wanted to I enjoy watching your videos.
Thank you for "confessing"! I love your sweet and honest spirit. Take heart, we all have struggles. You are doing great to recognize and try to repair as quickly as possible.
Beautiful! You sure packed a lot in one day. I guess it helps to be organized; something I love but doesn't come naturally to me. Thanks for the peek into church. I love a capella singing. The old hymns are my favorite. Our Sundays also start with church and I find that even though my children are grown, it's still a struggle to get out the door when we want to, (with a sweet spirit 😜). I appreciate your confession. Thank you for keeping it real.
I loved how you wrote your friends’ names on the paper! And I also liked your confession... this might sound crazy, but it was actually encouraging. It was fresh enough to still feel emotion, yet solved enough to speak hope.
Thank you for being so transparent. I really got chocked up when you paused 😢
Bottom line...you are a very sweet and honest young lady...your message is great! "Carry on"!
Everyone has disagreements. Don't feel bad. Working it out is just as important. If you get into an argument in front of your kids is vital they see you work it out. It shows them how a healthy relationship can have a disagreement, and work it out.
As a Mennonite mom I so relate to this video! Thanks for sharing the good and keeping it real!
I love the shmear! (peanut butter and marshmallow fluff). I like all things peanut butter anyway, but when I tried this for the first time it was a wow moment. And the cheese shmear, the German variant is the same as the Dutch that you said. My Sunday is also going to church in the morning and then changing into comfy clothes as soon as I walk in the door after service. I like to get really dressed up on Sunday and that isn't appropriate wear for just hanging out at home (suits and fancy sweaters). Parents argue. Many times you can wait until a time when the kids aren't listening or asleep, but they also need to learn (slowly and quietly) that mom and dad can disagree too. My parents did that with us. It wasn't a screaming match, but a conversation where they disagreed and spoke their minds. Thank you for sharing a down bit too. I can imagine it was difficult for you. rachelaoriginal
That's real life. We all have those days. We are human. You still inspire so many of us! I can't wait to try your bacon wrap recipe! Looks so yummy!
Thank you for sharing, definitely makes me feel a bit more " normal "!😅 Your evening looked amazing!💗
Our Mom's Group at church has an annual clothing exchange. It's fun. I hardly ever spend money on clothes for my kids because I'm able to get most of it at the exchange. Whatever is left over, we give to a place that helps single moms!
Your party looked so fun!! And thanks for the honesty. That's real life.
Hi Meagan, I just wanted to say that I really appreciated the chat at the end of the video about how to have fun when you have kids. I have a three week old currently and feel trapped like I'm never going to get out again. You are a refreshing breath of honesty and a good representation of real life. I really appreciate that you don't hide when you've had a bad day or are frustrated. It validates my own experiences. Keep being amazing!
Hey Meghan ,
Don't worry when you and your husband have some rougher days. That means you have a real relationship
Also it is important to fight in front of children but also make up in front of them .
It's a way for them how to deal when rougher days will come.
I've heard from so many child-psichologists about this.
Just enjoy the chaos of Sunday mornings this is just a season in your life that you will miss. Don't sweat the small stuff most of the things we stress about at the end of the day don't even matter.
So true. When in the midst of child rearing, there are times it seems like it will never end. But it does. They grow and leave to live their own lives, and the quiet left behind gives much time to reflect on the memories made during those days. Enjoy as much as you can of it now, so you have pleasant memories for the future.
Sooo true. Wow! I'm getting goosebumps thinking about it!
Love love love your Sunday morning! We are church of Christ and really felt “at home” visiting a Mennonite community. We also sing a cappella too :) thanks for sharing!
Lol even before you said "there's an awesome list of baby names" I was even thinking oh wow I need to keep these names in mind for my future littles!
Megan thankyou for your vlog.
I loved the way that you wrote all your friends names on the brown paper, brilliant idea.
First hymn , O the Deep Deep Love of Jesus, lovely,
we used to sing that often here in the UK.
Christmastime can be soo stressful and husbands can be annoying! ( and so can we!)
So
Hugs and thanks for sharing 😘
Please remember to give yourself and Josh plenty of grace. Busy, erratic days like Sunday can throw extra monkey wrenches into life, which makes communication more important but also much more difficult. This will often trigger disagreements and bad moods. It doesn’t mean either of you is bad or wrong, only that you’re human 💖 I hope you guys found a good resolution, but most importantly that you both remember the love you have for each other.
Hubby and I go through this often 😅
The harmonies of your congregation in their singing is beautiful.
Love this. Much like our sundays as well ♥️ and actually thanks for the little confession. Makes me feel so much better as I’ve really been struggling with the part of marriage that “things will never be quite like when we first fell in love” but life happens.
I love that you want your channel to be a positive place and I think we all realize you have private parts of your life that you don't share. I am thankful for the things you do share. I love your smiling face and your fast talking! You are such a sweet, thoughtful and kind person and I appreciate you sharing your days with us.
My Sundays start with breakfast with the husband - it's our weekly date. 😊 Then it's on to the life stuff - grocery shopping, finishing the laundry (like that's a real thing - it's not but I like to think it is), cleaning up the house and getting ready for a new work week.
Hiya I watched this vlog to the end but I noticed in the beginning there was a bit of an atmosphere in the car? When you got out for your walk you mentioned Josh wanted to go to golf I felt the resentment in your thoughts, sometimes men seem selfish by just doing what they want but they get low and need to take time to them selves. I believe men also go through hormone changes as well as us ladies. Stay strong sweetie, you've got this all under control. Big hugs xx
Your ideas are so inspiring. I do appreciate your honesty but I also believe you are allowed privacy. Thanks for another great video!
What a nice celebration. Love your good influence so much! Thank you.
Disagreements happen in every marriage! Thanks for being so vulnerable on camera. Merry Christmas.
I just found your channel. I am a first time mom of a 1 year old and I needed this message today. ❤
Your transparency is what continues to bring me back to your chanel. Thank you so much for sharing your life. ✨
I love you Megan! I am a new subscriber and am working through your older videos. You encourage me with your sweet Christian spirit.❤
Your a lovely woman megan and human like the rest of us . Dont take it to heart you cant protect your children from everything and I'm sure they see the loving side of you both 99 percent of the time . Merry Christmas and a happy 2020 to you both from Andrea in the UK 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
I was so surprised to hear the hymns because I grew up in Romania singing them at church 🙊💙
We sing them in Australia too!
Remember none of us are perfect. I really enjoy watching your channel because you are real and relatable.
Hey thanks! It's true. Sometimes we expect too much out of our own selves!
Not a problem.
One reason why I love your vlog is because of how natural, humble and real you are. Thanks for being so honest. It is truly lovely.
We do a similar recipe....breakfast sausage links cut in half,wrapped in bacon and then rolled in brown sugar. We have them every Christmas and Easter mornings and also opening day of deer season. Love your videos, a fellow youtuber you inspire me!
Love that you have your foods tied to specific traditions!
I admire people who are real, who know their humanness and are willing to be vulnerable. I don’t expect perfection and I know a vlog is only a snippet of life. I do admire you for who you are and what you do and for allowing me to come along for the ride.
Give yourself grace and share that grace with others. ❤️
You are so right about still having fun even when you are a mum. You need to have some down time to recharge. And as for arguing with Josh off camera, you do have a private life, but it shows you are also human and just the same as everyone else in family life.
First let me say I enjoyed the singing. Plus you have beautiful children. Arguments happen, it is part of married life. After 30 yrs of marriage we still fuss at times. God is good. Many blessings
Amish peanut butter schmeir is that BEST! It had peanut butter, karo, sugar, and egg whites. It has the consistency of chocolate frosting but tastes like peanut butter. You can buy it at Kitchen Kettle and stock up! You can also make it from scratch. Sometimes marshmello is added.
I've been married for 32+years and disagreements will happen, at times it's unavoidable because your are both sinful human beings with different ideas at times. At times it's good for children to see you work your disagreements out and apologize or compromise or whatever you do to make things right again, which keeps a marriage and your relationship healthy. Anyone who tells you that they don't have disputes with their spouse is lying to you or they are a very rare couple. By seeing you both work through your disagreements they learn how to deal with disagreements and how to work things out hopefully relatively calmly, respectfully and lovingly. I enjoy your channel and watch it often. I really love the fact that you are real about issues...it's very refreshing. Merry Christmas, Megan.
Nobody expects you, your relationship or your life to be perfect. You only need to disclose parts of yourself you choose to. Have a lovely day!
You should try dates wrap in bacon then in the oven until bacon is cooked ... sweet/salty little pieces of heaven!
Mmmm. I've never bought dates but that sounds REALLY good! I think someone sent me a recipe for them on Instagram. Maybe it was you?!
💖 Grace 💖 That's what it's for, hey?
I'm constantly remembering the Lord puts no moment to waste and somehow works it for our good/refinement.
Big hug.
Love your honesty. Love that you seek to be a woman of your word and live by your convictions.
Love how you seek to walk in humility. Love your creativity.
Love the seeds you plant in our lives as we watch you share your life.
You're His amazing creation - Glad you're in my life.
💎
Wow! Thank you for these words!
I was impressed that with all the work of hosting you also vlogged. You did a great job and it was so fun to see your party...If you have a friend with children just older than yours and you like their style, mention that you would be interested in their hand me downs. You may be helping her out as well, I know I enjoy seeing my children’s clothes worn again instead of just in storage. Also, a friend passes on to my daughter and it has been such a blessing and a time and money saver.
Thank you for your honesty. All marriages have arguments at some point. My husband and I had them too but we loved each other and where happily married for 34 years before he passed away.
My kids are grown now but they certainly didn't take away from me having fun, in fact they enhanced the fun that I had and now the grandsons add more to it.
It looks like your family and friends have some great times together. Have a wonderful Christmas.
I think it's your humility that really speaks to me Megan, and your willingness to share your life in an honest and honouring way. You have a great balance of showing the ups and downs, it makes you relatable. Watching your videos makes me feel like I've stopped in at a friend's for a coffee and catch up (from the other side of the world) Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and may the peace and joy of our Lord be with you 🎄🙏
I just love how our church services are so the same!! 🥰🥰🥰
Disagreements and obstacles happen especially when we live with people, it's just life. You keeping it real for you and your family is what counts the most. Thank you.
I do admire your thoughtfulness, honesty, integrity as well as the multitude of positive character traits you possess. Honesty is of tantamount import to me and when my husband and I have an issue, we both strive to work through it immediately and we both are able to forgive and forget. Holding onto ire after a disagreement, is poison to our soul. I think that withholding forgiveness diminishes me and if I cannot forgive, how can I expect anyone to forgive me? I really enjoy your videos, Megan. Never lose sight of your bliss...
We don't need to know details, but is refreshing to know that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows, and that real life happens. It's also encouraging to hear how you deal with the bumps. I admire the part of you that you put out for the world to see; obviously, I don't see all the personal things you keep off camera (that's healthy! :) ) Just know that you ARE an inspiration, even to people who are older than you, and have slightly different views of the world. Merry Christmas!
I think that it is great that you felt like you needed to make your confession. I think in this day and age of social media, some people can get a warped sense of reality. We only see a small portion of people’s lives. We don’t see the arguments, dirty bathrooms, and every day living. It is important to remember we are all human and have failings. Thanks for keeping it real. BTW - I love your handwriting on the craft tables.
Its okay to not be perfect , you are human and we all need our privacy. I admire you for your honesty!💗
We had friends over for grilled country ribs and a fire arose and burned them to a crisp!! The men ran to Dicky's BBQ for some brisket and pork - saved the dinner!! It happens and to this day we laugh about it!!
Just proves we are all normal. We all have good and bad things in our everyday lives. We grow individually and as a couple through this.
God bless you and yours!
Don't feel you have to confess you are human. Life happens. Nobody is perfect. You have a lovely family and a hopeful future in front of you.
Thanks for being vulnerable and sharing a tough part of your day. I’ve been with my husband for 20 years, disagreements happen. I’m glad you were able to talk it through. Communication is instrumental in all relationships.
I’m probably far too old and have no children to be following your channel, but I love your honesty and you inspire me to be more creative with crafts and cooking, so thanks for that as well.
On IG you asked about the church part, I think you served it well in this video, along with respecting the privacy of your friends.
Every day is a new day, we/ I don't feel we have to know everything there are going to be something things that belong to just you guys as a family. I thank you for your honesty. 🤗🤗🎄
Life happens! Don’t be so hard on yourself! You are an awesome lady!
Loved the video; the honestly and the real-life drama that happens everywhere and to everyone ! You wouldn’t be human if you never have disagreements....glad you were able to work it out. Merry Christmas !!
How brave of you to make your confession public but it makes me admire you more for your honesty. I've been married for 43 years and we still have our "fights" now and then. Not as many as when we were younger as we've learned through the years but it's perfectly normal . I still get really upset until our "fight" is resolved. Good for you for being honest.
Thanks for sharing the about how you and your husband had an argument. There's so many UA-camrs that hide that aspect of their life! It's so refreshing to know that I'm not alone and that I can relate to someone on UA-cam! We love you Megan! ❤️❤️❤️
I have only just seen this video despite it being a Christmas one, but I wanted to say that I really admired your honesty and appreciate your channel for having that beautiful balance of reality and positivity. You have a fan here in Australia!
I know what you mean! Kids grow out of everything! We only have a 1 year old so far so I buy all new baby gear and clothes and save them in boxes for more kids to come. It makes me feel a little less guilty😂
I do the same thing!
God bless your ‘punkin heart! That’s what we say down south.Consider yourself loved and smothered with support and prayers. You are doing a GREAT job and with such joy. Always. Even in the hard parts. They will pass and only the joy will be remembered. That’s God’s secret blessing for moms.
I like that you foraged your yard for items to add to the garland! That is how I made all of my wedding florals! So much beauty around us...no need to get everything at a store.
Loved this video so much!
The craft party was beautiful! I so want to do that with my friends!! Food looked great!
We are all flawed !!! Everyone has arguments !!!! It’s so wonderful to see someone being honest ! If I try to look back over the 20 plus years of marriage, oh my goodness !!!! LOL ! We had arguments over some of the silliest stuff ! Thank you for being so honest and real . All the young wives and mothers that watch you need to see that ! Thank you for showing a great example of faith and love for God !!! Thank you !
