So much to be thankful for!

This week we are super busy but I wanted to give everyone a little update. We made it through Hurricane Debby with only a bit of damage… mostly to plants and fruit trees. We’ve been cleaning up lots of limbs since the water has dried up a bit.

This was just from the beginning of the storm… we got quite a bit of water.

Solar Eclipse Party Ideas

Whoa! It feels like this year is flying by!

I’ve been working so hard on this new garden space and planning out some changes for our home and property that April just kinda snuck up on me. I was sitting down to do my monthly orders and I saw that I had some Solar Eclipse viewing glasses in my Amazon cart… had to get them ordered so we could safely view the eclipse next week. Then I remembered that I had started to plan a little party for that day (April 8th) as well… the keyword is ‘started’… it didn’t get very far.

Has time gotten away from you already this year? Or maybe you were surprised by the fact that you are hosting a Super Bowl get-together… after people have already been invited? Yep, but that’s OK because we love our friends and family and we love spending time with them.

Free Party Planning Printables!

Whew! What a year we had in 2023. We definitely had some ups and downs and lots of crazy unexpected things but we were so blessed to have spent it surrounded by friends and family who loved us!

This year, I am determined to streamline a lot of my processes and make things a little less stressful… I long for the days when I was so organized and things seemed to go smoothly with little effort. I know a lot of that has been due to things we had going on so I’ve been working on getting things back on track here. I find that breaking big projects into smaller bite-size pieces helps me out a lot.

Around the holidays I started working on this packet to help me with my Holiday/Party Planning. I can print out a new packet or just make copies of a blank one and keep them in my Holiday Planner. Then I’ll be able to jot down notes and ideas as they come to me throughout the year which will hopefully make things a lot easier as the year goes on. I have also updated my calendar with reminders about checking on upcoming events.

Feel free to use these if you want, if not I’ll just leave them here so I can find them easily! There are some prefilled pages as well as some that have been left blank for you to customize to fit your needs.

Have a great day!
