With 4 kids, Sundays were always very stressful for me for years. I learned that laying out the children's clothes and shoes the night before was very helpful. There is 10 years between my oldest and youngest so my oldest son was a huge help with the littles. I tried to make a crockpot meal that would be ready for dinner. Breakfast was oatmeal or cereal. I took "me" time at night after everyone went to bed. Reading or watching a show I liked. I also took that time to do anything I needed to do to prepare the kids for school the next day and finish any dishes or laundry that didn't get done during the day. Over the years I came to realize that a messy ( Not dirty) home will still be there in the morning so I tried not to stress too much about a few toys still out or pillows on the floor. Figuring out what battels really need fighting is a struggle most mothers of multiple kids have. We feel like it reflects a defect in ourselves to have a mess but in reality it is not us it is normal family life with littles. Have a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🥧🍂
.I remember Sundays being so busy for us as well when our children were young. It seemed we were always in a rush trying to get our 3 children fed, dressed and out the door for church. My husband didn’t go into the ministry until our daughter was in middle school and our 2 boys were in 4th and 5th grade. We attended church on Sunday mornings when they were younger as well, my husband and I both taught Sunday school classes at the time before going into full time ministry. So when we came home after church and ate dinner. We established a routine of nap time for all before heading back for evening service. The busyness of those days are behind us now. We enjoy when our children and Grandchildren come over for Sunday Dinner. Life changes so fast. Continue to cherish these special days. Before you know it, you’ll be reliving those precious memories in your heart and mind. Hold them close to your heart. Praying for you and your sweet family. Your friend, Debbie …..also a Michigan girl! Blessings
Thank you for sharing I love all your videos especially videos like this moms need time to rest and recharge please keep doing more of these videos they are so inspiring ❤
Beeswax wraps are so great! I stopped using plastic wrap, plastic bags, and and ziplocks a few years ago to reduce the plastic in our lives and for the planet as well. Also, thank you for sharing that you take time for yourself. You are inspiring me to give myself permission to do so.
Angela, what a beautiful video. Your boys are all so precious....they are being brought up to know the Lord, what a blessing. I loved seeing your routines for Sunday. Your home is so quaint and cozy. Wow your hydrangeas are beautiful. I live in New England and somehow the hydrangeas in my area are not producing many flowers. Thank you for the video. Many blessings .
Andrea, You have set a beautiful example for all of us to take stress out of our busy lives by setting aside a day of grateful worship, simple meals, and sweet rest💖 The Lord happily restores our souls !
Sundays are the busiest day of the week for those who have families and are serving in various ministries of our churches. Teaching a class, singing in the choir, potluck meals, keeping the nursery, and caring for your own young children. A Sunday afternoon time to recharge before the evening service was always a must!
My mother and father adopted my siblings and i from all walks of life. We had many wonderful traditions before and adter church. So grateful for all their efforts and genius ideas. Church and wonderful Sunday breakfast and Sunday dinners were fabulous. Yardwork was fun, gardening was special......it was such a diffident world back then ❤ I have six siblings and we are all successful today because of my parents ❤
How inspiring to see this video! This is the firts time ever that I realise that there is fellowship, brothers and sisters, motivating and supporting each other on a platform like UA-cam(I'm pretty old school sometimes or a little bit behind). May your video's inspire and motivate those, like me, who sometimes feels overwhelmed or alone. God gave us a job as daughters, women, wives and mothers..and He equips us for every good work❤ may we give Him praise in everything that we do, even in our daily lives
What a beautiful soul you are, Andrea! I hope you know how much you bless so many of your viewers! God bless you and your precious family a hundred times over❣️🙏🏼 Linda Ohh, and belated Happy Birthday! 🎉❤
Hi Andrea. I love the video. Sundays are definitely a day for Church and rest for me and my Husband in the Season of life we are in. Thank you for sharing your day with us ❤️
Sundays are busy for my family too with church. I always love a Sunday afternoon nap. Your hydrangeas in the front of your house are beautiful they have so many flowers on them! Do you do anything special to them to make them have so many blooms? I always look forward to your videos!
Those wonderful, simple things in life are just as important. Walking home with your family, taking time to care for yourself, and of course, those delightful little things that bring you joy. What is it about lovely items for our home, plus the simplicity of pretty oven mitts that make us satisfied and grounded? Whatever it may be, it is a blessing.
I like the idea of tidying for the week on Sunday afternoon. Setting out clothes the night before is always a must for us! And if I've made a breakfast casserole ahead of time, that's even better! Do you make sourdough? If so, can you make a video on that? Love your videos!
You remind me of my mom so much... She was born in Michigan and raised us 3 kids there until I was 6, then we moved to Florida. She lives there again now and is currently up at her UP cabin in Manistique enjoying the peace and beauty. She is the best mother. For a long time she seemed to never age past 35 to me. I love these videos, thank you for sharing with all of us. I feel more calm and grounded after watching. 🤗
This brought back memories of my own time raising 7 children, and taking them to church every Saturday. My kids are grown now and I miss those days with them so much. It was truly the best time of my life. Not perfect by any means, but still my favorite time.
Happy Birthday! Thank you for allowing us into your beautiful home. I love watching your videos and can appreciate the work that goes into keeping it so lovely and clean. Your husband and boys will remember this as they grow older. Cudos to you for maintaining your faith and traditional values! ❤
Happy Belated Birthday! Sweet Andrea. After church, is spent enjoying the simple things in life. After the last year, I take down time as much as I can. The last year has be a test of faith and endurance for sure. My husband of 57 years has been my first priority, he had brain surgery last May and this July, major aneurysm surgery. It’s been 5 weeks now and he is coming along but slowly. I never complain, just so blessed I can take care of him but at the end day I am very tired. I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. My saying, I am all things with God, nothing without him. 💕
Thank you for sharing! Our children are adults but we still try to keep Sundays as a day of rest and refueling for the week. We also have morning and evening services. A slower day and family time is so important!
You have a beautiful family and home. Cherish these sweet times with your family on Sundays. I sure do miss spending time with my children on Sundays. God bless you and your family
What a beautiful message Andrea, the real life of a woman, wife, mother and daughter of God. Really it's a chaos but it's wonderful and blessed. God bless you and your beautiful family always. Thanks for sharing this. Much love 💕 🥰🌹
What a beautiful day. ☺️ We never had any children, so I’m sure our Sunday’s are much more simple. Up, make the bed, get dressed, Sunday School, church, lunch, nap, back to choir practice and the evening service. Rest is as crucial as the lessons and sermons. We love Sundays! Recharges our body and soul.
Andrea, I loved this… and you looked especially beautiful in this one, that dress was perfection. I love the color brown. Thx for filming this , it’s nice to know how others spend their time, especially on Sundays. So fun to see!! 🏡 Watching from Michigan…Kim
Happy Birthday, sweet Andrea. Our Sundays are primarily church. We all serve and my hubby on the worship team, so we're there early morning until after lunch. We indulge in an afternoon nap and have a late lunch/early dinner. Then it's getting prepped for Monday and the week ahead. On those rare Sundays hubby is not playing, we stay home in our PJs and have a big breakfast. Eventually we get something checked off the to do list. God rested on Sundays and He wants us to join him. 😊❤
Your opener had me in tears... thank you sister, so encouraging. We are raising 5 children 6 and under and hoping for more babies down the road even though most days I'm overwhelmed by the 5 we have. But God is bigger, and He's ready to fill my cup the moment I ask. Motherhood is such sanctifying work that I am so thankful for.
I loved this voice over video with soft music and beautiful pictures. Sundays at our house is a day of rest and relaxation, going to church in the morning, simple lunch and supper and maybe visiting with family or friends.
What a peaceful video and so real. You are in a very busy season of life with your little ones and I must say handling it better than I did. I am a grandma now ( time goes too fast) . Things do get out of balance when focused only on daily circumstances and not having an eternal perspective. I was inspired by your video.🥰
Oh Andrea, this is such a beautiful and peaceful video ❤ Thank you so so much for encouraging us fellow homemakers! It truly means so so much 💕 Sending you blessings and love
I work in retail so I usually am at work. But I always listen to David Jeremiah's on TV! He warms my heart and gives me so much hope!! By the way, I love your dress and I hope you had a blessed Birthday!!
Awww... this was so fun to see ! Makes me want to grab my favorite girls and go do the same. What a great group of gals ! I loved the anticipation of waiting to see what you would show next 😂 you are too funny ! Cracked me up ! Oh, and Michigan ❤😍 what a beautiful spot to meet. I have vacationed there many many times . So refreshing to watch. Proverbs 27:9
My father is a pastor (42 years.) I'm 46 and he started the church when I was 4. He pastored 2 churches, so as a child I was in church twice on Sundays, also on Wednesday nights and Friday nights. And then there were Bible Studies on other nights that I was brought to. When we raised our children (now 19,16, and 11) we brought them to church Sundays and Wednesdays too. It's just part of who we are. Infants, babies, and young school ages were a sacrifice on Wednesday nights ... sometimes I honestly was so tired (I'm a working mom so that was difficult too,) that I wished my father wasn't a pastor and I could just not be there when I didn't feel like it. But being in the ministry, I really didn't have that option. My family was always the rule, not the exception. =) I currently still serve in our church and sometimes I wish I could lay down the mantle, but my father is 68 and has not yet, nor my mother who is 66 ... so on I go ... But I will say, my children grew up to be the best versions of what I could have ever hoped for them ... this solid raising was not in vain. =) Your Sunday traditions are lovely ...
What do you mean…your life IS PERFECT!!! You’re on top of everything with your boys and you and your hubby are the perfect team🎉!!! You’re putting God first and then everything else falls into place. Love you! ❤🍁🌻And let me just say that your dress is amazing on you!!! ❤ Walking home and taking in Gods glory is a beautiful gift!!! ❤ You bring me great joy! ❤
I'm oly a few minutes into this video and I am already LOVING it! There can be a so much beauty and satisfaction in keeping a home and caring for one's family. It's a sobering reminder for each of us to be grateful we HAVE a HOME to keep at all. Thank you Andrea for this beautiful video with a real sneak peach into your daily life.
What a lovely video! Thank you for sharing. My children are grown and my oldest daughter and her family live several states away, and my mother lives over an hour away, so Sunday afternoons after church and lunch are the time my husband and I visit over FaceTime with our daughter and granddaughters (and sometimes our son-in-law) and then I have a long, unhurried visit on the phone with my mother before we go back to church that evening. God giving us a day to rest is such a blessing!
We took our sons to church from an early age. We both worked so it was a commitment of time and preparation. But so worth it! They are good men and wonderful dads to our 7 grandchildren. Sunday naps are the best!
Every comment I read was so nice and complimentary. And it was a very sweet video, your toddler is beautiful, and the older boys are handsome. Your day seemed both restful and productive. Inspiring! So why do I concentrate on your washing your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher and overloading it? I am going to try to take a good look at myself.
I admire your honesty, Andrea! You're so right about our focus and where it should be always.... upward instead of inward. God will honor the desires of your heart as you/ we seek Him daily. You're a good momma and those sweet boys are blessed to have you and Michael as parents to guide and nurture them in the Lord.💗
I just love your newer content! You really have a knack for relaxing people… and even through the chaos of life I think you and your family make it look so beautiful. I also think HGTV should hire you ☺️
Nice of you to share your Sunday routine. I know it’s not easy. Like you said if you focus inward it could be hard but when you focus upward it’s easier. I would tell my family “if you’re not going to help me clean, help me maintain “. Most of the time they would put things back where they got it from. ❤
Happy belated birthday Andrea🎉 I'm glad you and your mom got to go antique shopping for your birthday. You got some really neat finds. I enjoyed this video so much, thank you for bringing us into your beautiful home. Oh, and your dress is so pretty on you! Have a blessed weekend 💗
Lovely calm video. God does tell us to rest on Sunday's so good for you to allow yourself time to refuel and rest. I am retired but my husband still works 6 days a week at our retail store here in the middle of Nebraska. Prior to C-19 he was open for business on Sundays. Although he didn't usually work on Sundays he took a lot of phone calls from his employees with questions, concerns etc. So he didn't always get that mental break that was needed. During C-19 he made the decision to remain closed on Sundays and it was the best decision ever. He needs that day to unwind and be away from the store. We enjoy the day together without any interruptions. We don't plan anything special on Sunday so we don't have any commitments. We generally attend mass on Saturday evenings. Thank you for sharing your lovely Sunday with us!!
This is my first time watching your video I really enjoyed it even though I am a lot holder that you (60….but don’t tell anyone 😊) You have a very calming voice I will be watching more You are doing a great job, but don’t wear yourself out A little everyday, goes a long way Teach your boys to help you They looked old enough and i5 will teach them to be good husbands and fathers Beautiful family Blessings to you 🌺
I just love this video!! Sunday is my favorite day of the week. Not only because it Lord's Day but it's a time for us to slow down. We usually enjoy a picnic or bbq, pool time, relax, take a drive or go visit friends and family sometimes, after church. I love your goodies from the thrift store. Happy Birthday! 🎉 Your channel is such a blessing. You and Amy Fritz are my favorites!!
Hello Andrea!!! Oh how I loved this video!!! Sunday's are for church!!! Thus video made me think of when I had 3 little ones to get dressed for church!!! My 3 little ones are grown with little ones of their own now. But I have precious memories of those days!!! I love that you are putting God first even when your so tired!! He will bless you for it. Your boys are so precious!!!! And you and your husband are such a sweet couple!!! Take care God bless!!!
I have 4 boys and going to church with them was so hard when they were infants and toddlers. We also have morning and afternoon service so a total of 4-5 hours are spent there on Sundays. It’s hard but worth it. I enjoy your videos tremendously. You have such a beautiful style both in your house and in your clothes. I live in Michigan as well.. near Ann Arbor Many blessings to you and your family❤️
Thank u so much for sharing this video. I think it’s really important that people no that just b/c ur doing videos that ur also normal reg people. With u saying & showing a typical day is so important so again THANK U Andrea for just being u 💗
You’re such a good mom. I have two grand children, a girl, and a boy. I’ve had each of them three days and of course at different times. We bake together and do movies and events and shopping with a 12-year-old granddaughter priceless moments for me and my husband. I love watching your channel you inspire me so much.
We have two services on Sunday too. How fun to be able to walk home. The girls love church, and I am so thankful for that. To keep it fun, we go out to eat ( fast food ) on Sunday nights with the youth. It’s fun. Lovely video, Andrea.🫶🏻🌱
Well I remember the days getting my two boys ready for church and one has Autism so I was sooooo busy trying to get everyone ready and to be on time because I am one of those people who hates being late. You make it look so easy, when we all know its not, but your family is so beautiful and such a gift from God. Thank you for sharing your special times with us. It brings back so many wonderful memories for me as a young mother with my boys and wife. God Bless You All.
With 4 kids, Sundays were always very stressful for me for years. I learned that laying out the children's clothes and shoes the night before was very helpful. There is 10 years between my oldest and youngest so my oldest son was a huge help with the littles. I tried to make a crockpot meal that would be ready for dinner. Breakfast was oatmeal or cereal. I took "me" time at night after everyone went to bed. Reading or watching a show I liked. I also took that time to do anything I needed to do to prepare the kids for school the next day and finish any dishes or laundry that didn't get done during the day. Over the years I came to realize that a messy ( Not dirty) home will still be there in the morning so I tried not to stress too much about a few toys still out or pillows on the floor. Figuring out what battels really need fighting is a struggle most mothers of multiple kids have. We feel like it reflects a defect in ourselves to have a mess but in reality it is not us it is normal family life with littles. Have a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🥧🍂
Thank you for sharing what sunday is like for your family .God bless you abudantly ❤❤❤
Love your dress!
Beautiful way to spend a Sunday…. Thanks for sharing 💕🌸💕

I love the way your presentation has evolved into a relaxed look at your comings and goings. Nicely done. I enjoyed it ♥️
So nice! I felt rested just watching this and I’m reminded of how God intended for us to spend our Sabbath day. Thank you for sharing❤
I love the calico dress your wearing. Calico prints are my favorite. Beautiful family!!
Happy birthday to you ! I pray you have many many more precious Sundays 😊
Thank you for sharing I love all your videos especially videos like this moms need time to rest and recharge please keep doing more of these videos they are so inspiring ❤
Another beautiful video. ❤😊❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
As a pastor's wife I truly enjoyed you sharing this. My day is somewhat hectic being the PW but I got refreshed watching this and ideas.
A time of calm is good
Beeswax wraps are so great! I stopped using plastic wrap, plastic bags, and and ziplocks a few years ago to reduce the plastic in our lives and for the planet as well. Also, thank you for sharing that you take time for yourself. You are inspiring me to give myself permission to do so.
Thank you, so much...beautiful!
What a dreamy day
Angela, what a beautiful video. Your boys are all so precious....they are being brought up to know the Lord, what a blessing. I loved seeing your routines for Sunday. Your home is so quaint and cozy. Wow your hydrangeas are beautiful.
I live in New England and somehow the hydrangeas in my area are not producing many flowers. Thank you for the video.

My mother and father adopted my siblings and i from all walks of life.
We had many wonderful traditions before and adter church.
So grateful for all their efforts and genius ideas.
Church and wonderful Sunday breakfast and Sunday dinners were fabulous.
Yardwork was fun, gardening was special......it was such a diffident world back then ❤
I have six siblings and we are all successful today because of my parents ❤

It is so good that you are taking the time to rest and refresh. Moms need that time and don't always give it to themselves. A very nice video
I love that you are a Christian, loving God and your family. ❤

What a lovely video! Thank you for sharing. My children are grown and my oldest daughter and her family live several states away, and my mother lives over an hour away, so Sunday afternoons after church and lunch are the time my husband and I visit over FaceTime with our daughter and granddaughters (and sometimes our son-in-law) and then I have a long, unhurried visit on the phone with my mother before we go back to church that evening. God giving us a day to rest is such a blessing!
We took our sons to church from an early age. We both worked so it was a commitment of time and preparation. But so worth it! They are good men and wonderful dads to our 7 grandchildren. Sunday naps are the best!
What a lovely Sunday!!💖
Your house is beautiful! ❤️
Aww, thank you ❤❤
Every comment I read was so nice and complimentary. And it was a very sweet video, your toddler is beautiful, and the older boys are handsome. Your day seemed both restful and productive. Inspiring! So why do I concentrate on your washing your dishes before putting them in the dishwasher and overloading it? I am going to try to take a good look at myself.
I admire your honesty, Andrea! You're so right about our focus and where it should be always.... upward instead of inward. God will honor the desires of your heart as you/ we seek Him daily. You're a good momma and those sweet boys are blessed to have you and Michael as parents to guide and nurture them in the Lord.💗
I just love your newer content! You really have a knack for relaxing people… and even through the chaos of life I think you and your family make it look so beautiful. I also think HGTV should hire you ☺️
Happy belated Birthday! Enjoyed your Sunday afternoon. So relaxing.
Aw, thank you so much and I am so happy you enjoyed!
OH how wonderful! I am only 2.12 minutes into your video and I love your new way of sharing your day with us. God Bless you all.
Thank you so much, I am so happy you enjoyed it! ❤
So many warm fuzzies watching this. 🥰 I’m also a mom of 4 and I find your beautiful take on homemaking so inspiring. Please keep these videos coming!
Love this type of video! It was so delightful watching you and your beautiful family and home! You are a lovely person Andrea!!❤
I love your honesty your channel had brought me
Such joy. Thank you. God bless.
Thank you so much, you are too sweet ❤❤
Nice of you to share your Sunday routine. I know it’s not easy. Like you said if you focus inward it could be hard but when you focus upward it’s easier. I would tell my family “if you’re not going to help me clean, help me maintain “. Most of the time they would put things back where they got it from. ❤
Yes, for the most part they all help me also, especially my husband ❤
Happy belated birthday Andrea🎉 I'm glad you and your mom got to go antique shopping for your birthday. You got some really neat finds. I enjoyed this video so much, thank you for bringing us into your beautiful home. Oh, and your dress is so pretty on you! Have a blessed weekend 💗
Lovely calm video. God does tell us to rest on Sunday's so good for you to allow yourself time to refuel and rest. I am retired but my husband still works 6 days a week at our retail store here in the middle of Nebraska. Prior to C-19 he was open for business on Sundays. Although he didn't usually work on Sundays he took a lot of phone calls from his employees with questions, concerns etc. So he didn't always get that mental break that was needed. During C-19 he made the decision to remain closed on Sundays and it was the best decision ever. He needs that day to unwind and be away from the store. We enjoy the day together without any interruptions. We don't plan anything special on Sunday so we don't have any commitments. We generally attend mass on Saturday evenings. Thank you for sharing your lovely Sunday with us!!
I am so happy to read you both can enjoy your Sundays together now, they truly are so special ❤
Our work never stops.but we are to do all things for Gods glory.
This is my first time watching your video
I really enjoyed it even though I am a lot holder that you (60….but don’t tell anyone 😊)
You have a very calming voice
I will be watching more
You are doing a great job, but don’t wear yourself out
A little everyday, goes a long way
Teach your boys to help you
They looked old enough and i5 will teach them to be good husbands and fathers
Beautiful family
Blessings to you 🌺
I just love this video!! Sunday is my favorite day of the week. Not only because it Lord's Day but it's a time for us to slow down. We usually enjoy a picnic or bbq, pool time, relax, take a drive or go visit friends and family sometimes, after church. I love your goodies from the thrift store. Happy Birthday! 🎉 Your channel is such a blessing. You and Amy Fritz are my favorites!!
Hello Andrea!!! Oh how I loved this video!!! Sunday's are for church!!! Thus video made me think of when I had 3 little ones to get dressed for church!!! My 3 little ones are grown with little ones of their own now. But I have precious memories of those days!!! I love that you are putting God first even when your so tired!! He will bless you for it. Your boys are so precious!!!! And you and your husband are such a sweet couple!!! Take care God bless!!!
Enjoyed
I have 4 boys and going to church with them was so hard when they were infants and toddlers. We also have morning and afternoon service so a total of 4-5 hours are spent there on Sundays. It’s hard but worth it. I enjoy your videos tremendously. You have such a beautiful style both in your house and in your clothes. I live in Michigan as well.. near Ann Arbor
Many blessings to you and your family❤️
Thank u so much for sharing this video. I think it’s really important that people no that just b/c ur doing videos that ur also normal reg people. With u saying & showing a typical day is so important so again THANK U Andrea for just being u 💗
You’re such a good mom. I have two grand children, a girl, and a boy. I’ve had each of them three days and of course at different times. We bake together and do movies and events and shopping with a 12-year-old granddaughter priceless moments for me and my husband. I love watching your channel you inspire me so much.
We also have the yellow design dishes and I think that's really sweet. They were handed down to us
Aw! That is so special! ❤
We have two services on Sunday too. How fun to be able to walk home. The girls love church, and I am so thankful for that. To keep it fun, we go out to eat ( fast food ) on Sunday nights with the youth. It’s fun.
Lovely video, Andrea.🫶🏻🌱
Aw that sounds so fun with the youth, I love this, thanks for sharing Sarah ❤
Well I remember the days getting my two boys ready for church and one has Autism so I was sooooo busy trying to get everyone ready and to be on time because I am one of those people who hates being late. You make it look so easy, when we all know its not, but your family is so beautiful and such a gift from God. Thank you for sharing your special times with us. It brings back so many wonderful memories for me as a young mother with my boys and wife. God Bless You All.
