• Grateful.πŸ₯° That’s how I’m feeling this week. πŸ’— In just 9 days, Matt, Micah and I will begin the road trip to NC to host @creativeatheart 😍 This conference snuck up on me in all the best of ways and I’ve spent the better part of this month pouring over attendee questionnaires, working on our (14 page πŸ“) timeline and finalizing allllll the details with @emilyinlove_ . πŸ’— Last night I was literally overcome with emotion thinking back through the #creativeatheart journey. When I started the conference, I had NO idea what to expect. And in year 2 of it all, I thought we were done for. I made mistake after mistake, faced challenge after challenge and at the beginning of 2017 Matt loving told me I had one more shot. I couldn’t sustain what I did in 2016 physically, mentally, emotionally OR financially ... and he knew that. (This is a perfect example of how our StrengthsFinder Top 5 are perfect for each other!) πŸ’› Now here I sit just days away from our NINTH conference - almost 3 full years after that hard convo with Matt - in awe of what’s happened and SO excited for what’s ahead πŸ™ŒπŸ»πŸ˜­ It’s perfect timing, really, that today my podcast interview with @laylee_emadi is live and I’m talking frankly about what it means to Overcome Criticism and Build Community!! Jump to her profile to listen ... and get ready for @creativeatheart craziness (in the BEST of ways) for the next 2 weeks!!! 🀩πŸ₯³πŸ€—πŸ˜πŸ˜­ #herestothecreatives #creativeatheartfam πŸ“· @bethannearthur

  • I promise I'm *almost* done with the birthday posts!!! But seriously, how often does your first baby turn one?!? I'm soaking it up & celebrating the heck out of his little life!!! On the blog I'm sharing his Little Blue Truck themed birthday party. We kept it simple with cookout food and immediate family, but I had fun with some unique touches to make his first one we'd never forget (since let's be real, his parties are all about us for the first few year LOL!). This cake Matt's mama made Micah is PRECIOUS!! Mini-sized for my Micro-Man and sentimentally similar to Matt's first birthday cake she made!! See more on the blog!! #adventuresofmicahasher #littlebluetruck #firstbirthday #boymama

  • It's hard to believe how much Happy this 20lb pound boy has brought into my life in the last 365 days ... yet he really is the happiest thing about my life. β€’ His middle actually means Happiness Sent From God and it's such a fitting name. I remember reading it in my 500 Baby Name book (that Matt laughed at me for buying becuase couldn't I just google things like that?!). I read his middle name (Asher) and thought Yes. This is it. Our little boy is My Happy.. β€’ Sharing not one but TWO new posts on the blog today: his 1 Year Session with @emilygeraldphotography πŸ’™ and his Little Blue Truck birthday party with pics by his Mamaw @sharonhoustonphotography!!! πŸš™ See them both via the link in bio!! 😍 So, so grateful I get to be my happy boy's mama... life would be duller and dimmer without Micah-man, that's for sure!!! 😭 Happy, happy birthday, Micah!! Mama loves you more than words.πŸŽ‚ #adventuresofmicahasher #boymama #firstbirthday #happybaby

  • Currently listening to Micah cry in his car seat as we drive 2 hours home from my parents house this weekend 😩😣 Even though sometimes the road trip with him doesn’t go as planned (like today!) we really did have the BEST 4 day weekend!!! β€’ We celebrated his 1st birthday yesterday and like any mama, I am in COMPLETE denial that he’ll officially be a year on Friday!!! πŸ™ˆπŸ˜­ We had a pool party with family and I had to throw in a subtle Little Blue Truck theme to the decor πŸš™ !! I’ll share more pics on the blog soon! But my heart feels so, so full (and nostalgic) as I think about how I felt this time last year in the final days before he came!!! Time really does simultaneously fly by yet creep so slow. πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™ Can’t believe his first birthday party has already come & gone!!!! 😭😭😭 #adventuresofmicahasher #mamaprenuer #firstbirthdayparty #littlebluetruck β€’ PS. I loved using this sign from my baby shower for the decor!! I use it in his nursery too πŸ’™ @simplyjessicamarie
