The Weekend| Special Open House | A little DIY

Happy Monday guys! 


So if you all follow me on Instagram, you know that I made mention of our weekend and a special event that I was blessed to help style for some special friends of ours who are now pastoring Zoe Church  (A21 affiliated) located in Bulgaria. 

Because of time and just hectic schedules I needed to keep this as simple as possible but I wanted it clean and classy as well. 

Have you guys heard of the A21 Campaign? 
You can read more about it  and all the amazing lives being changed through their efforts here

In a nutshell, A21 began about 5 years ago after recognizing that there was a huge gap in the fight against human trafficking specifically in Europe which is their target area. The organization has made great strides in this fight in it's short 5-year lifespan and I was so excited to support not only our friends Noah and Andrea but to create an environment for others to learn, reconnect and give as well. 

I was SO blessed to be able to be a part of this and set the atmosphere for such beautiful people. It was truly an honor and I absolutely enjoyed each and every minute of it. 








I'll be sharing more about these signs, the inspiration behind them and how you may be able to have the chance to bring hope and freedom to others through them! 


She's probably going to kill me but I love this pic of Andrea and Noah. They have such great personalities and are an amazing couple. 

After our last goodbye at the open house, our family packed up and headed over to a friend's house for her son's bday party! I've told THIS FRIEND a few times (as well as others) the she should blog. She loves food, entertaining, decorating, shopping, people, her family, Jesus and she is pretty good at it all...what else does she need to inspire others?

Anyhow, we were there for a few hours and packed a ton of fun into that time. She and her family own a home on the lake here and the theme for the party was "camping" so the night was full of lots of water activities, s'mores, fire and lounging! 



I think she really did such a great job putting it all together, don't you?


And apparently Grayson and had absolutely NO fun! 


Hop back over on Wednesday as I will be sharing a quick, fun DIY on that black and white table runner from the open house and details on the word art! 

XO,
