I’m not a big birthday or gifts person - I usually just want a homemade cake and a nice, peaceful day. 🍰

This year however, I reached the 38th level and then went away for the week with Christian (more of a scheduling coincidence but still perfect!). So much time to reflect, pray and savor. Savor. My “word” for 2025.

Got teary several times telling Christian how special this birthday felt. I feel like our whole family is here. Stella has been the most precious, cup-filling, joyful addition to our family. Our families are currently healthy. We are in the midst of final renovation touches on a house that we really love and will be our kids childhood home. I have been working part-time and feel like I’ve found a flow that serves myself and my kids. We have great friends and community that feels like family.

My cup overfloweth. I feel like we are starting to really be able to enjoy the life we have worked so hard to create.

Savor. Every freakin’ bit!!!! Thank you for being a part of this community and spending some of your valuable time with me. Truly means more to me than I can express.

Last pic is protecting my birthday wish from Theo. 😜

This dress makes me feel like a goddess and when the wind hits it?! I’m a princess, can’t tell me different. 💅🏼 Kinda wish Hudson had seen me in this bc I feel he would appreciate the dress more than Christian did. 😜

Comment MAXI for full outfit details. This dress is on sale at several different retailers, runs TTS and the top is a stretchy, breathable cotton! Machine washable too - https://liketk.it/5jofZ

Christmas in July means the annual @mackenziechilds Barn Sale. 👏🏼 Not only because there are tons of reduced prices on holiday pieces, but also on select Rosy Check pieces for the first time ever!

This gorgeous Italian-made accent chair with a sterling check seat cushion IS included in the sale. I am seriously in love with it. 😍

Sterling Check is one of my all time favorite MacKenzie-Childs collections, and the glass cutting boards (on sale!) blend so seamlessly with countertops. A great gift idea if you want to think ahead!

Comment MCSALE for a message with 10 of my favorite pieces that are included in the sale - https://liketk.it/5jefq

The wind here is truly undefeated. Thank God I brought a hair clip because I’m almost ready to pull a Britney. ✂️

Comment KNIT for outfit details - my dress is on sale! https://liketk.it/5j6J4

And for the record this is the music I hear when I’m forced to eat my own hair. My hair hurricane will be my villain origin story. 🌪️☠️

For the record, he actually loves planning trips and would have a hard time letting me take over. And I’m just happy to not be in charge of anyone or anything for a few days. 🫠

A win-win! But please know that I let him act like I’m the diva when he is most definitely the luxury diva. 💅🏼

Who plans the vacations in your house?! And TY to my girl @cheesegal for inspiring this video. ☠️

Proceeded to walk to and from dinner and encountered not one but TWO Ambergris Cay boa constrictors (they’re small… but still) so I think we’re even. 🐍

Comment SILK for outfit details to your inbox - this skirt is 100% silk and machine washable, not to mention to beautiful and comfortable.https://liketk.it/5iXZk

When you fall asleep on the sofa after visiting a floating tiki bar and then emerge like it’s a new day, baby. ☀️🌊

Birthday pre dinner cocktail at home is always 10/10. Damp hair, hungry, happy and very content at this 38th level of life. Honestly couldn’t ask for more, what better gift is there than that? 🩷

Comment PINK for outfit details to your inbox!! https://liketk.it/5iGQL

Love you guys and TY for the support srsly. This community is a huge part of my life and I’m so thankful. xo

Looks like no one can stop me from torturing myself and replacing the front doors of every house I move into. It’s not an easy process but man, it makes such a huge difference in natural light + the view of beautiful trees.

Sidenote this does make it appear as though Christian did this and I just want to clarify that he was just fixing the door lever. I had 3 teams of men who made, installed and stained! Christian is glad he doesn’t have time for my many projects. 😅

Stain color is @minwaxusa English Chestnut and these doors are fir. Hardware is @signaturehw.

Comment STRIPES for outfit and home details (vest is @gerarddarel)! https://liketk.it/5itf4
