Simple Holiday & Party Ideas

  • 🌸🌼Spring is in the air! Get all the tips for making these edible flower bouquets on the blog! Link in profile! #sofestivetip #flowercraft #spring
  • Ready for some Easter Confessions? 🐇🌷🐣 1. We spent the day watching #ldsconf in pjs and sweats (no matching Easter outfits for us this year) 2. We never decorated Easter eggs 3. Our ham was terrible and the rolls were rock hard. —————————————— With a new baby coming in a few weeks, I’m learning to let some things go and it’s liberating friends! ———— My goal here is still the same- to inspire, but not overwhelm anyone of you! There’s no obligation to do every. single. tradition/activity each year to keep it a tradition. Celebrating is all about the memories and feelings you create and there are many ways you can accomplish that! 💕 So keep celebrating life, whatever that looks like for you! Thanks for being here!
  • #sofestivetip • Have the Easter bunny visit your family tonight to keep Easter Sunday focused on Christ! Thanks to my awesome friend Andrea who gave us this idea years ago. It’s been such a good thing for our family! 🐣 📷 : @confetticrateandco #easterbasket #easter #sofestiveholidays —————————
  • From last night:: our #lastsupper on the floor that turned into a giant wrestling match! Kids make everything festive... and crazy! 😂 #holyweek
  • #sofestivetip • General Conference is this weekend! My kids request these conference bags every time! And they’re so simple to put together. —————————- I make one bag for each member of the First Presidency & Quorum of the 12 since they will for sure speak during the weekend. I fill the bags with little snacks or treats — mostly what’s in the house and sometimes I’ll take my kids to the bulk bins and let them choose a few treats. We put them all in a basket and then they get to eat the treats when that apostle speaks. —————————- It doesn’t make our #ldsconf perfect by any means, but it does help them look forward to each speaker and learn their names and faces. ————————— I just grabbed these photos from lds.org, but if you’d like me to send you the files, leave your email below! ——————————— #lds #familyfun #wethanktheeogodforaprophet #sofestivetips
  • EASTER GIVEAWAY! Head over to my favorite @alexazurcher to enter! Ends tonight!! 🌷🐇
  • A snowy birthday balloon send-off tonight to my angel mama. She was the reason I started So Festive— to keep track of all the ways she made life festive for us 7 children before she passed away when I was 15. She had a special way of making everyday life a celebration. Can’t wait to party with her again someday. 🎈 #familiesareforever #lds
  • So excited for our Easter Week tradition that starts this Sunday! Each day we hang up pictures + signs and talk about what Christ did that day.
