CHRISTMAS DECOR | FARMHOUSE STYLE FOR THE HOLIDAYS

Christmas farmhouse decor style blush pink white decor

Decorating for the Holidays is one of my most favorite things! Most of our Christmases were spent in rentals and apartments so now that we have our dream house, I am slowing building our holiday decor and loving our Christmas Farmhouse! You probably are not surprised to hear that I am not a big fan of red and green decor. Even though I prefer to keep my Christmas decor similar to our home style, there is always room for a little traditional red and green! I am excited to share my favorite finds this year and how I decorate and keep everything pretty even with two small babes running around.

A LOOK THROUGH OUR CHRISTMAS DECORATING

We have so much fun picking out a tree each year, especially when it’s cold outside! This time we got a super fluffy tree and flocked it as usual at a local farmers market! Here’s a look at our tree shopping, a little family fun, and the final pieces all coming together!

ORNAMENTS UP AND PRESENTS TIED TIGHT

Keeping lots of ribbon on hand is always a good idea as it can be used in so many different projects! I shared a few of my favorites above but I really LOVE getting ribbon on Etsy since you can get a big roll for $9 with 50 yards of ribbon! For my presents this year, I mixed it up with some blush ribbon as well as jute for the boys presents, then I decorated with my Target and Pier1 Ornaments!

Pier1 is having a huge ornament sale right now so I always check back in with them online and in the store! It’s a great way to save 50% off and get some unique ornaments!

Most ornaments seen in the detailed shot are from Target! I mix in different sizes and it always comes out perfectly!

How adorable is this wooden hanging tree? I LOVE IT! It was $10 at Target and it is a great way to showcase your Christmas cards!


I snuck a few of our gingerbread men into apothecary jars and I love how it turned out! With a small bag of fake snow, I finished the look and added in some gingerbread houses and tree candles! I am definitely not looking forward to having to take this down next year!

Thanks for sharing in the Christmas spirit with us! I hope you have some great ideas on how to bring a little farmhouse into your Christmas decor! Make sure to share your Christmas decor styles with us!

A year before these were taken, she would swing he A year before these were taken, she would swing her head up so fast if I tried to pet her face. She thought I was going to hit her so she’d quickly throw her head up to avoid it. Slowly, she learned that I wasn’t there to hurt her. This was one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve ever had!
She rescued me in more ways than I rescued her 💕 I’m so grateful I have these forever memories captured by my sweet hubbie!
Remy Update ❤️‍🩹 Thank you for the prayer Remy Update ❤️‍🩹 Thank you for the prayers and support for Remy as always! We had so much encouragement in December when Remy did a 7 day Holter monitor on his heart. It’s not easy to get a 4 year old to wear a monitor attached to his chest 24-7 for 7 days but he did so amazing. We waited what felt like ages to hear from Dr. Brothers since it was over the holidays. Everett was next to me when the preview showed up and all we saw was, “I reviewed the heart rate monitor which was reassuring.” We both were shaking immediately. The emotions take over so quickly!! Remy’s overall results were great! He does have some PVCs (premature ventricular complexes). We will follow up in one year to make sure the frequency of them is staying low. These are very rare and are usually seen a normal heart which is interesting. So far, nothing to be concerned with! We are so grateful! Grow, Remy, grow! ❤️‍🩹

God didn’t make many of them like you and I’m so grateful you’re mine. We’ve seen so much of the world together, brought in SO many babies, celebrated on the mountains, held each other through the valleys. I always believed in fairy tales but you’ve kept ours going so strong. Thank you for being a wonderful husband and excellent father! We absolutely love you!

It’s been years since I’ve had to walk through It’s been years since I’ve had to walk through these fears and emotions. Unfortunately, I am asking for some big prayers so we can avoid the hospital. Remy has a bad cough that has come and gone and now returned. His saturations are dipping from low 90’s to high 80’s which I normally would call 911 for. I just texted his doctor and we are working hard to keep him from an ambulance ride. Please pray 🙏🏼 Thank you so much!
