Happy Valentine’s Day!

I couldn’t resist throwing in two more Valentine ideas…

At the dinner table tonight – if you missed my Valentine Dinner ideas and are looking for a quick and easy thing to do as a Happy Home, why not have a guessing game?

And if you want to bring a quick Valentine gift to your neighbors, I took the Candy Gram idea from an earlier post, and whipped together one for the Happy Home next door!

And if you are looking for a last minute way to bless someone, every year the Happy Hubby and I have offered to babysit for a couple on Valentine’s Day so that they can get out and enjoy a little romance.  It’s one of my favorite traditions!  I am planning a special Adventure Date for the two lovebirds!  It should be a fun night!

Before I sign off, the Happy Buddy wanted me to share a little Valentine Message from him with all my Happy Home Friends…

I hope that you have the best Valentine’s Day ever!

Relish in the LOVE that our God has showered on you!  You are dearly loved by HIM!!

I’d be THRILLED if you wanted to share with me the results of your Happy Home’s Valentine’s Day Celebration!

Please, PLEASE tell me all about it!!!!!!!!  It makes me so happy!

Happy Valentine’s Day-ing! 🙂

Sharing is caring!

    Hey Sister,

    I went mad with my cookie cutter today. The girls had a slice of toast with a mini hearts cut out of them for breakfast. For lunch, Hannah had a heart-shaped turkey sandwich, and they each got a heart of M&Ms for dessert. When Ryan got home from work he found a message in M&Ms on the counter. Also, I whipped up the “love potion” smoothie for him. He was so happy as he loves smoothies, and is really missing them (no smoothie shops in Deutschland) here. The girls got heart-shaped pancakes with strawberries for dinner. Then, after they were in bed, we enjoyed a romantic dinner for two and a new pasta dish. I think we’ll polish off the Passion Bowl and call it a night. Thanks for all the fun ideas Sister! Love ya!

    I have enjoyed your ideas and so glad I found the website! I used your ideas to do little things for my son and husband the past week. It has been so much fun and I hope to do it again in the future. They liked it too and my son would ask, where’s my surprise? He liked trying to figure out what it was each day.

    Julie, you will be so impressed with the Valentines Day magic at our house! I am so inspired by you:) When Ted got home there was a note on the door that said “Happy Valentines Day Games!” I had set up 5 different valentines day related games around the house. My labor of love was “love darts”: whatever section of the dart board you landed on you had to answer a love question or a love dare. We had such a fun date night in! I lost the valentines day games, but I feel like I won:) I think the valentines day games might become a tradition.

    Julie, You are AMAZING!! Your love for God and for your family is so inspiring. Because of you, I was inspired to do a 14 days of love fun! It has completely changed my perspective towards my family and especially my marriage. The spirit in my home this Valentine season has been so very magical. I just wanted to thank you for your incredible creativity and desire to share with all of us. May God continue to bless you and your beautiful family because you have truly blessed mine. 🙂

    My prince liked the centerpiece so much that he posted a picture on his Facebook page, calling it “weapons grade cuteness” 😉 !

  • Things I’ve learned from breaking my tailbone >>

1. It is possible to wear only 4 outfits in 2 weeks.

2. God is more concerned with developing character and deep roots than about our physical comfort.

3. My children don’t love to see me bedridden, but they love that they have been able to eat nuggets, pizza, and fries for 2 weeks.

4. When you can’t sleep because of pain or wild imagination that is not helpful, put on worship music.

5. A good prayer to pray, “Show me the depth of my need for You and shatter my self-sufficiency. Change my mindset so that prayer becomes my first response in every situation. May I seek You in all things. Help me to put all my hope in You...”

6. Hold on to a sense of humor. Or find someone to get you laughing. Even though it will hurt to laugh. You need to not take it all so seriously!

7. God’s people are so precious. People showed up on our doorstep with lasagnas, flowers, sandwiches, Uber Eats gift cards, and one dear soul even sent her cleaning ladies to our house to undo the damage of mama being down for days on end. Whenever I was tempted to despair, someone would text or bring by some freshly cut fruit. The message here is don’t ask, just do > because every act of kindness reminded me of Who is in charge.

8. When hard times come, lean into gratitude instead of fussiness and resistance. Thank your husband for carrying everything while you’re down, thank your community for carrying you to Jesus, thank the Lord for being present in all circumstances with a plan for your good and His glory. There is a reason God tells us in the Bible to do all things without complaining or disputing-so that you. will. shine. It’s not easy, but the reward is GREAT. I want the world to see Jesus shining in me in my adversity. Doesn’t mean you can’t cry and admit that what you are facing is so very difficult, but this can be done with a surrendered heart. This is the new assignment. Accept it, receive it as something that is from a loving Father. Look for the provisions along the way. You will go from strength to strength. Move forward with hope. He’s got you!

“Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.” Romans 12:12

  • Mom and Dad are here and now it’s officially Christmas! ❤️🎄❤️

I haven’t opened our home to host anything since 4 years ago when we got a dog and I lost complete control of the house. Also because this is a house of boys and the bathroom permanently smells like an outhouse and I’m a little self conscious about all of it. 🫠

But when your parents come to town, it’s time to dust off the plates that aren’t made out of paper and plan a delicious breakfast menu! ✨

The dog was absolutely thrilled to have so many new friends. Also he probably ate more than all of us combined. 😆

All is calm and all is bright! And even the toilets aren’t so bad! 🥲
  • ✨When we wake up, it will be Christmas!✨

I felt the Holy Spirit nudging me to bake a cake for a family very dear to us. I went to the store, bought the ingredients, and carefully followed the recipe. The recipe said multiple times not to overcook the cake because it will very easily become dry. So I watched the oven diligently. But when I pulled the cake out, I could tell it had baked a little too long.

God called me to bake this cake for this family. It wasn’t time to quit, but it wasn’t time to make another cake! So instead of getting discouraged, I chose to pray about it. I asked the Lord to take my offering and make much of it. If He can multiply the loaves and fish, He can moisten up a cake!

Precisely one day after delivering the cake, we received a text stating what I thought was impossible. The cake was good! Delicious even!

Seems silly to pray about an overcooked cake, but I believe God is honored in these small acts of faith. Believing in the impossible was something God asked Mary to do, so why not trust Him to do the impossible here, too?

What impossible thing can we bring to Him in prayer today? He loves to hear from us. He loves to delight and surprise us when we choose to believe He is good and powerful and kind. He is no magic genie, but I think when our desires align with His heart, when obedience is the priority, and we are fully surrendered come what may, we can trust He will do a good thing. 

“For nothing is impossible with God!” Luke 1:37

“He satisfies the hungry with good things.” Luke 1:53

Galatians 5:13 says, “For you were called to be free, brothers and sisters; only don’t use this freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but serve one another through love.”

The Lord gave us some helpful instructions on freedom and we are very much in need of them! May we set our gaze not on division and fighting, but on asking God how we can be a part of the solution - small, faithful acts of Spirit-led love every day to the people in our world. 

It is here in America where we can freely and confidently respond to Zion’s request to gather as a family in the living room to pray for the leg pains he has been having. We can bake muffins in our kitchens, leave surprises at someone’s doorstep, share a Bible verse with the grocery store employee, and worship on Sunday with friends.

These freedoms were purchased at a great cost, as many chose to lay down their lives in an ultimate act of love. May we remember. And may that remembering lead us right back to Galatians 5:13 and Jesus’ ultimate act of love. This holy inspiration is what we need to rise each day in humble gratitude for freedom in Christ to pour out, serve, and build His kingdom here on earth!

Happy Birthday America! 🥳

🇺🇸🧨🌭🇺🇸🧨🌭
  • 🎉 NOAH is 16! 🎉

Writing this while you are playing a game of hockey with your little brothers in the living room - because you are awesome and love making your little brothers happy. You are commentating the entire game, complete with buzzer sound effects and crowd cheers. 🥅🏒📣

Moving to a new school this year was not easy. We had some hard times, some big disappointments, some dreams crushed… but you didn’t give up. You kept showing up, believing good is always on the way in God’s plans. And sure enough, you’ve made some new friends, discovered a new passion for running, gave it your all, and even rocked a mullet. 😅

You are strong, creative, full of integrity, purity, wit, fun, wisdom, care, responsibility, discernment, intelligence, and love. We could not be more proud of you!!! ❤️🧡💛

Happiest of birthdays, bruh! 😎

He is no magic genie, but I think when our desires align with His heart, when obedience is the priority, and we are fully surrendered come what may, we can trust He will do a good thing. “For nothing is impossible with God!” Luke 1:37 “He satisfies the hungry with good things.” Luke 1:53 Sleep tight, friends! ❤️💚🎄💚❤️

❤️🤍💙Favorite day!💙🤍❤️

Galatians 5:13 says, “For you were called to be free, brothers and sisters; only don’t use this freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but serve one another through love.”

The Lord gave us some helpful instructions on freedom and we are very much in need of them! May we set our gaze not on division and fighting, but on asking God how we can be a part of the solution - small, faithful acts of Spirit-led love every day to the people in our world. 

It is here in America where we can freely and confidently respond to Zion’s request to gather as a family in the living room to pray for the leg pains he has been having. We can bake muffins in our kitchens, leave surprises at someone’s doorstep, share a Bible verse with the grocery store employee, and worship on Sunday with friends.

These freedoms were purchased at a great cost, as many chose to lay down their lives in an ultimate act of love. May we remember. And may that remembering lead us right back to Galatians 5:13 and Jesus’ ultimate act of love. This holy inspiration is what we need to rise each day in humble gratitude for freedom in Christ to pour out, serve, and build His kingdom here on earth!

Happy Birthday America! 🥳

🎉 NOAH is 16! 🎉

Writing this while you are playing a game of hockey with your little brothers in the living room - because you are awesome and love making your little brothers happy. You are commentating the entire game, complete with buzzer sound effects and crowd cheers. 🥅🏒📣

Moving to a new school this year was not easy. We had some hard times, some big disappointments, some dreams crushed… but you didn’t give up. You kept showing up, believing good is always on the way in God’s plans. And sure enough, you’ve made some new friends, discovered a new passion for running, gave it your all, and even rocked a mullet. 😅

You are strong, creative, full of integrity, purity, wit, fun, wisdom, care, responsibility, discernment, intelligence, and love. We could not be more proud of you!!! ❤️🧡💛

Happiest of birthdays, bruh! 😎
