My Grandmother’s House

10/05/2019 By Bre

What a week it has been!! A whirlwind, but it has been so much fun celebrating the release of my book with you all week long!! I shared in my Instagram stories on Monday about who I dedicated my book to. My grandmother. I was so blessed to group up with a grandmother who only lived 8 minutes across town. My sisters and I would always ask my mom if we could go over for a visit, and I’m so thankful her door was always open. I learned so much in those visits at my grandmothers house, and today I’m sharing my book dedication to her.

Setting the Table | The Gift of Gathering

10/04/2019 By Bre

I will be the first to admit, when I was a kid, setting the table for dinner was not my most favorite thing to do. Even when asked, I would begrudgingly say “yes”, as I walked over to the silverware drawer and began counting out forks. I did not see the point. I couldn’t understand why everyone else couldn’t just get their own silverware? Why did I have to do it? What I didn’t realize then, I’ve come to treasure now ~

The Gift of Gathering | Come Join the Table!

09/30/2019 By Bre

Hello friends!! I can’t believe that in just ONE day my book, The Gift of Gathering, releases!! A friend asked me over the weekend at a BBQ how it feels, and I told them it still feels very surreal, like it hasn’t hit yet, and on the other hand it feels a little raw, like I’m walking around with my heart on my sleeve, because this book baby I’ve been working on will now be out in the world for everyone to see, GULP! To celebrate the release of the book, I’ve asked some blogging friends to join me in celebrating, AND I have a special GIVEAWAY for one lucky winner to receive!

DIY Fall Planter

09/28/2019 By Bre

Hello Friends! Today I’m sharing a super easy way to create a fall planter. I never really did anything with my planters for fall up until a few years ago. Thinking the season was over, and they would just die, I didn’t see the point. Now I love coming up with ideas to add some color to the outside of our home until a fresh blanket of white snow shows up. This year I focused on things that I could replant in the spring, for an added win! Come and check it out ~

Hello Friends!! Thank you SO much for all of your kind remarks about the area in front of our barn I shared yesterday!!
