I wore this velvet dress a few weeks ago for our Galentine’s Day celebration! It was just so fun to wear.  From the velvet material to the sleeve and tie detail in the front, I was in love! You can’t go wrong with a bell sleeve these days and pink for Valentine’s day is just perfect, if you ask me! I paired this velvet winner with my favorite red purse!! How fun are these lips!!? And my favorite strappy red heels, which Charlie has since taken a liking to and chewed right through them!! The worst part—they are sold out!! I linked a similar pair here.  I am so glad I got to wear this a few weeks ago! I will be staying in on Valentine’s Day with Ben! What are your plans for next Tuesday!? Hope you are having an amazing week so far!! Thank you as always for stopping by the blog!!

Much love,

    Hello , I do not really totally agree to the article… I personally believe that you should certainly mention a lot more specific percentage as well as authenticate your actual remarks

    Can I simply say what a relief to seek out someone who truly is aware of what theyre speaking about on the internet. You definitely know tips on how to deliver an issue to light and make it important. Extra folks have to learn this and understand this facet of the story. I cant consider youre not more widespread since you definitely have the gift.

WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST MIRACLES YOU HAVE EVER WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST MIRACLES YOU HAVE EVER WITNESSED GOD DO IN YOUR LIFE?!✨🫶🏾🕊️❤️‍🔥🙌🏾🙏🏾🤍

I’ll go first!! Earlier this week I was just thinking about how faithful God has been to me over the years! I think we all go through different highs and lows, but it’s so good to stop and look back and remember what God has done! 

Back in 2008 when Ben and I just got married, the market had crashed. I had purchased a home on my own in CT- We lost the house and our cars were repossessed - I honestly felt like we would never recover from that!!! Not to mention, I felt so much failure and shame attached to that season!

Fast-forward to 2019, we begin working with our dear friend  @cody.d.williams  on purchasing our very first home together and he told us all the work that needed to be done with our credit,etc. we took a year and did everything we could to get things right! Not only were we able to purchase our first home together in 2019, but everything from the past was no longer a factor & two years later we were able to purchase an even more magnificent property that we now call home 🏡 

Why was this a miracle for me? I think because I thought we would always be behind & nothing would ever change. We rented for 7+ years before we were able to purchase a home as a married couple and that started to discourage me! 

Just a reminder that little miracles happen everyday and that your worst is never the worst.  God can turn your situation around in a moment!!! The BEST is yet to COME!!! Keep believing ⭐️
