Hey Reader, Over the past three months, we’ve intentionally pulled back in our business—not because things were failing, but because we wanted to do the opposite. We’ve been refining, pruning, and rebuilding behind the scenes so that Finding Joy in Your Home can be stronger, more robust, and running far more smoothly as we head into 2026. The last two years have been quite the journey of reshaping, and we are so grateful for God’s provision through every step. There are some big things in...

Hey Reader, When Jason and I got married, I always dreamed of having a big family—though at the time, my idea of "big" was 4-6 kids! Jason thought 4 sounded perfect, so we always joked that we agreed on 5. But over the years, our perspective on children, family, and even retirement has shifted dramatically. We went from thinking we’d be “done” having kids by 30 to embracing the idea that God designed women’s fertility to last much longer. We once pictured our golden years as an empty nest and...

This month I'll be sharing about our Christmas Shop! If you don’t want to get any shop-related emails this month, but you want to stay on my email list, just click this link! Hey Reader, The older I get, the more interested I am in learning skills that produce either heirloom items (like a hand crocheted blanket) or that pass along knowledge and skill (like canning and gardening)!

Hey Reader, This week it's been in the high 70s and low 80s, mosquitos and flies are out, and it doesn't feel like mid-November. However, something shifted in my brain this week and I'm READY to start thinking about Thanksgiving & Christmas now. Rachel Jankovic famously said, "When you are behind on life, get ahead on Christmas." That sounds good right about now. Who’s with me? 🙋♀️Jason and I have had a lot of chats this Fall about how we want to do Christmas a bit differently. We want to...
