Grace at Home No. 342


Hello, friends, and welcome to this week's Grace at Home party.

I've been AWOL a lot lately, and this past weekend was the reason. I haven't processed everything yet, but here's a summary in one photo:


That's my son Will and my new daughter, Christiana, at the Naval Memorial Chapel in Pensacola, Florida.

Y'all. Our lives will never be the same, and I'm so glad!

I'll try to write about everything soon. Right now we're still weary from travel and celebration, but now we have a lifetime to reflect upon this wonderful event.

So what have you been up to? I know there are all kinds of ways you're making your homes places of grace, and I want to hear about them!

I invite you to link posts about
  • DIY projects
  • decorating
  • recipes
  • hospitality
  • homemaking tips
  • parenting
  • marriage
  • faith
  • self-care
  • soul care
Whatever you do to make your home a place of grace, I'd like to hear about it.  Here's what I ask of you.  Please include the permalink to your post, not your blog's home page.  Please let people know that you've linked up.  No more than three posts per person, please.  Note that if you link a post here, you are giving me permission to share your post, including a photo.  And visit at least one of the other party participants--that's what really makes it a party!

You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!

  5. Richella, CONGRATULATIONS, what a stunning summary photo!
    I have been consumed with downsizing, but am now happily adjusting to urban condo living, sharing both our home and a patriotic tablescape my home state of West Virginia (June 20 is our 156th birthday!) and ideas for the 4th.
    Thank you for sharing your life event with us. Much joy and blessing being sent your family's way!

  10. Congratulations! I remember how surreal it was when my daughter got married. She was the first of my children to do so. She was married by a Navy chaplain as my son-in-law was in the Marines at the time. It was a beautiful wedding and a beautiful day. I remember going to bed with a smile pasted on my face just reflecting back on all the many blessings of the day. Enjoy this new chapter!

    Congratulations on the new phase of your life.
    Cutting apron strings is hard, but it's what we are supposed to do! I'm getting a tiny taste of that this past two weeks as my oldest is out of the country.

    Blessings to you, and thank you for hostessing this blog hop!
