Leaping, Loving, and Blooming Through the Holidays

If this year has taught me anything, it’s this:

Faith is a lot like flower farming. You can prepare the soil, water the seeds, and plan your heart out…But at some point, you still have to trust what you can’t see just yet.

🍂 The Beauty (and Bumps) of Stepping Out in Faith

Walking away from a 9–5 and stepping into full-time flower farming has been one of the biggest leaps of faith I’ve ever taken.

There have been moments of harvest and moments of hustle in between. But every bouquet, every workshop, and every familiar face at the farmers market has reminded me — this is exactly where I’m meant to be.

Even when things don’t go according to plan. (More on that in a second.)

Prepping for the Wedding (And Rolling with the Changes)

October has brought more than just pumpkins and porch mums — it’s also been full of excitement and preparation as our family gets ready for my daughter’s wedding next month.

Between farming and floral subscriptions, I’ve been helping tie up all the little details (and yes, fixing a few things last minute too). There have already been some changes to the program, little tweaks that remind me that weddings, like gardens, rarely go exactly according to plan.

But where there’s a will, there’s always a way.

I may not know how it will all unfold on the big day, but I do know this: it’s going to be beautiful, not because it’s perfect, but because it’s filled with love. And that’s always enough.

🎄 Holiday Centerpieces That Deserve Their Moment

Speaking of beautiful…

Now that wedding petals have settled, I’ve turned my attention to the season ahead, and y’all, I am so excited about these holiday centerpieces.

There’s just something about fresh florals on a fall table or in the middle of your Thanksgiving spread that makes the whole room feel warmer.

If you’re hosting this year (or know someone who is), I’ve got arrangements that:

• Blend fall richness with winter glow

• Are fully customizable for your table

• Make amazing gifts for friends, clients, or holiday hosts

Whether you’re going bold and dramatic or soft and classic, I’ve got something blooming for you.

A Note from the Garden

This October looked different than I imagined. Less “structured hustle,” more quiet shifts behind the scenes. But that’s the beauty of faith — it grows best when we let go of how we thought it should look and lean into what’s still blooming.

If you're in a season of taking risks, starting over, or simply trying to make it all come together you're not alone.

Keep showing up. Keep planting.

Even the most unexpected blooms can be the most rewarding.

What’s Coming Up (Because We’re Still Blooming)
