Over Thanksgiving weekend, I noticed a few of my friends were posting pictures of their decorated cookies or gingerbread houses and asking which one their Instagram audience thought was the winner. I thought this would be a fun idea to do with the Tribe, and I found a gingerbread house kit at Aldi for $6.99 […]

at the movies 2018
Every November, our church does this series called At the Movies. It is one of the most anticipated and fun series of the year and thousands accept Christ into their hearts every year. Our pastor takes modern day stories (movies) and finds God’s truth in them – similar to how Jesus told stories to help […]
decorating for Christmas
I absolutely love decorating our home for Christmas! We moved into this house a week before Christmas last year and before any of the furniture was arranged, Aaron had this 12 foot tree in our living room. I’ve decided our house looks incomplete without the tree 😝 Since the girls were gone on […]
thanksgiving weekend 2018
I hope you all had a wonderful, relaxing, tradition filled weekend. The Shaver Crew’s Thanksgiving weekend was a mix of nontraditional and traditional. Wednesday night, Rick & Michelle decided to drive to Illinois to celebrate Thanksgiving with Michelle’s family and they offered to take Rylie and Emmaline with them. Aaron and I accepted their […]
happy thanksgiving!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!! I’m going to keep this short because I don’t want you on your phones long. Enjoy the parade, homemade food, time with loved ones, and take that nap 😉 But I wanted to jump on for this week’s Thankful Thursday and since it’s Thanksgiving, what better time to really dive into thankfulness!? […]
the last 6 months
Saturday morning, we were sitting on the couch when Aaron looked up from his phone and said, “how does this sound? I’m posting it on Facebook.” Okay… Aaron hasn’t posted anything on Facebook since our pregnancy announcement (with Rylie), maaayyybbbeee he posted something the day she was born – but that’s it. So when […]
the wooden kitchen
Rylie was gifted a beautiful wooden kitchen from her grandparents (Rick + Michelle) for her birthday, and knowing it might take some time, we postponed putting it together until we knew we had a chill day at home. So when Saturday (11.17.18) came around with absolutely no plans but to stay home, we brought the […]
how 2 train your dragon birthday party
We decided to have Rylie’s birthday party on a Friday night, which ended up working out wonderfully! This last Friday (11.9.18) a few of our friends came to celebrate our new 2 year old. Aaron chose the theme “How To (2) Train Your Dragon,” which was a lot of fun to decorate for. Aaron was […]
rylie’s 2nd birthday day
Even though it was Rylie’s birthday, I still had to work a full day 🙁 But Aaron and my mom (who is in town for Rylie’s birthday & birthday party) met me for lunch at the McWane Center (where we got an annual family pass last year for Rylie’s birthday). It was an hour well […]
the twins – 2 years old
After losing Rey earlier this year, “the triplets” have now been reduced to “the twins.” Although she is deeply missed and it’s hard to celebrate her birthday without her, I wanted to still post a “happy birthday” to our pup Kylo. I won’t sugar coat it people – he’s a dog, and I love him […]
