It’s a Super Birthday {Combined Boys Birthday Party}

Brothers, Superheroes, and Lego’s are the three words I have to describe this super combined boys’s birthday party! Jase and Jude’s birthdays are just 11 days apart, so realistically doing two different parties is not going to happen. I almost didn’t even make the one happen this year between kid’s camp and getting sick immediately after camp finished, but with it being the big ONE for Jude, I didn’t want to miss out. Jase was asking for ANOTHER Paw Patrol Birthday this year, until finally Superheroes made their entrance into his life and he wanted a Batman Lego party. So I tried to think of a fun way to combine the party with Jase’s theme idea, and then I remembered that adorable quote “Sometimes being a brother is better than being a superhero” and it couldn’t have been more perfect! So we ran with this SUPER Birthday theme for the boys and it was SO MUCH FUN!

My staple when it comes to feeding large crowds at a boys party is hot dogs. I know it’s nothing cute and theme worthy, but most of the time kids just want a hot dog! So hot dogs, macaroni, chips, baked beans, and watermelon cut into little starts to go with some of the shapes and themes at the party. It was the perfect kids finger food and we kept it fun and simple.

Catherine’s Cakery is local to STL and run by one of my sweet friends and we get EVERY THING from her. She is amazing. She was able to take all these requests from Jase and put them into cupcakes, and let me tell you his wish list was long. Combining Batman, Robin, Superhero theme, and Lego’s was no easy task. As usual, she knocked it out of the park. They were perfect! We just gave the boys a Batman and Robin Duo for cake time and they loved it.

I ordered most of the decor from Oriental! There are always coupon codes so everything was super cheap and it all came together perfectly! It was such a fun way to celebrate both boys and I am glad it all tied together well! I’m not much of a superhero guru, so I was surprised at myself for pulling it off.

I also found a few of these adorable superhero prints on Etsy and I think I might be adding them to our playroom! They were perfect in tying everything together, and since all of our kids love superheroes right now it seems like the perfect addition for the playroom!

My favorite part would have to be the ADORABLE shirts a friend made for the boys. Jase had a Batman shirt with the words hero, and Jude was his trusty sidekick as Robin. I mean, does it get any cuter than this? And now I have a one year old and a five year old….just like that.

You deserve to exist, with the same grace and love You deserve to exist, with the same grace and love that you so freely give to your family. It’s not just about holding space for them; it’s about holding space for you, too.

You don’t have to shrink yourself to make room for others.

You deserve to take up space too.
Sometimes, the habits that helped us survive becom Sometimes, the habits that helped us survive become the hardest to unlearn. Those patterns once kept you safe, but now you’re learning they don’t need to anymore. 

Give yourself grace—you’re unlearning survival. Healing takes time, and with each layer you peel back, you’re discovering the person you’ve always been beneath the survival.

And if you’re anything like me, you’ll really learn to love her. ❤️
✨ NEW SEASON ✨ I’m not a big fan of change. ✨ NEW SEASON ✨

I’m not a big fan of change. My nervous system gets all panicky and tends to over research every possibility that could take place. It likes to tell me safety is in the details. 

But I know that’s not true.

This year has been a big year of growth for me in this department. Trauma told me control was my safety, but the truth was all I ever had was a false sense of control. 

This year has offered plenty of opportunities for me to say, “Okay God, you have my yes, wherever that leads.”

No over research. No over analyzing. No predicting every possibility. No trying to control the outcome.

Just a heart that says, “Yes.” 

Even when I don’t understand. Even when I’m nervous how it will turn out. Even when it feels like right now isn’t bad. Even when my heart’s confused. 

Even when….

God has been asking us both a lot lately, “Do I have your yes, no matter what that looks like?” Friday was the end of a season for Chad working at the Appliance Guys, and today starts a new season of a new company. It was NOT an easy decision, and it came with a lot of tears (mainly from me - are you surprised?). His boss, where he’s been for the last almost six years, has been an incredible support for our family as we walked through some of the hardest seasons of our family. They will always hold a special place in our heart.

But God said “it’s time” and my faith-filled husband said “Yes.” I have to admit, I don’t envy how hard this decision was for him. It affects us both, yes. But he had to walk it out. And I’m so grateful for His leadership and faith to Jesus to step into the next season when there are so many unknowns.

Sometimes, all God wants to know is does He have our “YES” no matter what that means. No matter what that changes. 

May I live my life in a way that has an open heart to hear from God and a willingness to say “YES” even when….

(PS he was so thrilled I made him take this photo. 😂 But I know this season will be one we forever ever want to remember, because God always shows His faithfulness).
I wonder if they would have chosen life for her. I wonder if they would have chosen life for her.

I wonder if they would have seen what was growing inside of her, and the fight that was about to come on the other side, if they would have said her life was worth saving.

I wonder if they would have discounted her before she had a chance. 

I wonder if they would have made a prediction about her quality of life and deemed her not worth the cost.

I wonder if they would have saw the life saving measures she would need and decided that it was worse to let her live.

I wonder if they would have saw everything that could go wrong, the bleak prognosis, and compared her to statistics. 

I wonder if they would have made a choice to encourage a decision that robbed us all of the miracle we see today.

Whether 48 hours or 4 years - her life has changed mine for the better. It’s heartbreaking to think someone may have once told me she wasn’t worth it.
