I remember the very first time I was introduced to the idea of “Friendsgiving.” During my senior year of college, a sorority sister of mine invited me to a Friendsgiving dinner she was hosting at her house. Without even being entirely sure of what it was, I told her to count me in! When I asked what all a Friendsgiving dinner entailed, she quickly explained that it was a time of fellowship with friends to celebrate the Thanksgiving season before we all parted ways during the break to head back home to visit with our families. Since then, I’ve seen many of those same people that attended keep the tradition alive by hosting a gathering in their homes filled with good food, good fiends and good times!

VBS 2018 has officially kicked off with the start of this new month! You may have seen my posts about Game On, Shipwrecked and Splash Canyon (3 popular VBS themes for this year) floating around the world wide web – and it’s because I absolutely LOVE Vacation Bible School and all that it entails!

It may (or may not) come to a surprise to you that even though VBS hasn’t even started at my own home church just yet, I’m already looking ahead to VBS 2019 to see what all the buzz is about! On June 1st, Cokesbury announced the brand new theme set to take off for 2019, and we’re all in for a treat that’s totally out of this world!

Our Farmhouse Office Reveal

I received product from Kenroy Home in exchange for my honest review. All opinions expressed within this post are 100% my own.

Since completing our brand new home roughly 7 months ago, I’ve had numerous people reach out asking to see “reveals” of the different rooms in our home. I’ve always loved to decorate, and for years I’ve had big dreams about what the decor in my home would look like one day. I have Pinterest boards galore that highlight my love for farmhouse inspired decor, and some of the most popular posts here on Southern Made Simple are farmhouse decor related! However, since moving in I’ve discovered that decorating a home is a rather time consuming (and expensive) process – and since finding out that I was pregnant just a few days after moving in, that process has sort of been put on the back burner. That is, until today!
