2022… what a JOYful year you have been!! Thank you Lord for my sweet boys and the JOY they bring me each and every day!! ✨🎉🫶🏽 My word going into 2022 was “joy” 🥰 - and I am so thankful for all of the sweet memories and milestones this year that marked this as such a big year for our family 🎉 - we started off the year with the most amazing snowfall ⛄️ YET in our little sparkle city ❄️, @wesmabry surprised me with my dream car 🥹 at Valentine’s Day 💝, we celebrated 🥳 Judson’s very first birthday 🎂(safari-themed… just like his nursery!! 🐘🦒), Judson started walking/running (go baby go!!) 👼🏼, we have been nursing now for over a year and a half 🤱🏼 (something I always longed and prayed to be able to do 🙏🏽), we spent lots and lots of time outdoors ☀️ and playing at the park (including a surprise picnic 🧺 from Wes celebrating my 28th birthday - sweetest one yet!!🌳), we took lots of special trips down to the beach (our happy place!!) 🏝️, had the sweetest fall season going to lots of farms and petting lots of farm animals (our little country boy Judson LOVES animals and it is the sweetest thing 🐮🐴), I officially finished up my Master’s Degree in Professional Counseling from @libertyuniversity 📜 (which was quite a busy and full season on top of being a mama 🤍, pastor’s wife, and running my small business, @emilymabrycreative 🎨, from home 🏡), and had the most magical Christmas yet with our baby boy at the most precious little 18 month age (nothing sweeter than Christmas through his eyes 🎅🏽)!! 🎄♥️ Thanking the Lord for this year of 2022 that truly has taught me a whole new meaning of the word JOY and excited for all that 2023 has in store for our little family ahead!! ⭐️ My word for 2023 is “Savor,” and I pray I will continue to soak in these precious days with our baby boy and make the most of every moment this year - these truly are “the days” - and I want to savor every one of them and live the abundant life Jesus has invited us to live!! 🥰💫 LTKfamily LTKHoliday LTKbaby
