🍽️ Will you be dusting off the china for the Christmas table in a few weeks? 🫧 I will never forget the first time I saw Royal Crown Derby Carlton Gold paired with the Gold Aves salad plate. It was love at first sight. I was with my mom at Smyth Jewelers. I intended to use it and indeed I have thanks in huge part to my sister who has faithfully given me cups and plates here and there for years each Christmas. After I got married registering for china went out of style for brides and some st...

🎁 Thank you for all the orders over the weekend. I am glad so many people are finding the necessity of a religious gift wrap (and a blue nutcracker thrown in too!) 🎁 #christiangiftwrap #religiouswrappingpaper #grandmillenialstyle #artgifts #catholicmom #smallbusiness #advent #ipreview via @preview.app

🧶👆🗓️ Officially one month till Christmas Day! Here is your reminder! 🎁 We haven’t had Thanksgiving yet so it seems like there is no way this Sunday begins December and Advent! But sure enough…Christmas will be here in a month! 🕯️🕯️🕯️🕯️ I am NOT ready. But I do have the wrapping paper I dreamed of last fall when I couldn’t find a SINGLE roll of religious Christmas wrapping paper in stores. This is the paper I dreamed of…one telling the Christmas story in toile de juoy style in a cheery C...

🎙️I love the Messy Family Podcast and had the joy of meeting the hosts a few years ago! Recently hosts Mike and Alicia Hernon had a guest on the show. He talked about three kinds of altars every family needs to have. I thought, “shoot, I only have one home altar. I can’t measure up to these amazing Catholics with their three altars and their ten kids!” 👶🍼👶 But in the next breath he named the three altars: the dinner table, the coffee table and the marriage bed. 🤯🤯🤯 I think this is a beautifu...

👋 Hi, I’m Anne! Please pardon how strange this is! A little about me. Then tell me about you please! I have loved drawing my whole life but took a really long break from it to tend to life things like jobs, my husband and my four children. It’s been my lifelong dream to paint. This is that journey into painting, Act II. I have lived in Washington, DC for twenty years. I grew up outside Baltimore and spend my summers in Maryland by the Chesapeake Bay which is truly my happy place. I love e...

✨ 🌈 ✨ Caught this magical moment in my living room where the light caught the chandelier in just the right way to scatter a million rainbows around the room. I had just sat down to write an 11th birthday card to my third baby, my sweet surprise. Her whole life is a reminder to me that God’s plans are better than our plans. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways above your ways, my thoughts higher than your thoughts. -Isaiah 55: 9 #catholicmom #lightscattersdarkness ...

🌸🌸🌸We are all familiar with images of the Capitol, the White House and the Washington monument. But the cherry blossom is one of Washington’s most beautiful and enduring natural symbols. I love how these cherry blossoms make me feel totally serene. They’re simple, sweet and give me that feeling of hope that I so closely associate with springtime. For those of us who find the cold and winter a bit harder to bear, it’s nice to have a reminder that spring and its blossoms will come again. 🌸🌸🌸 ...

an old black and white photo of a woman looking off into the distance with two other women behind her

Last night I was searching for training wheels in the garage and came across a stack of newspapers. My husband was there and we wondered if we should go through them but decided if we hadn’t missed them for twenty years we would just recycle them. I noticed the top one was the September 11, 2001 Washington Post. I decided to put that out front in case any of our Capitol Hill neighbors would like it. I threw the rest of the papers in the recycling, figuring they contained my husband’s writing....

two wrapped presents sitting on a couch with the words when do you buy presents?

🎁 🎁 🎁 Tell me when you buy your Christmas gifts! Some years I begin in August. This year it looks like I am beginning this week! So for me…November! What about you? 🎁🎁🎁 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ 🕯️ I have had three babies in November and December plus my husband’s birthday and Thanksgiving so it is a very busy time for our family. When those babies were being born I planned ahead and had everything wrapped and stashed by each birth. Those babies taught me to plan ahead and in doing so gave me a much more p...

a drawing of a bird with a spoon in it's beak

✨ #birdtober ✨ I first saw these in Sea Island, Georgia. Then later I saw them right here in DC in the Anacostia River near Kingman Park. You don’t have to be a birder to find these beauties. You just have to pay attention. I saw a roseate spoonbill from my car crossing the bridge by RFK Stadium! #beautyeverywhere #observenature #roseatespoonbill #birdtober #birdtober2024 #birdtober2024day29
