Sophie’s Zoo-Themed 3rd Birthday Party

November 15, 2020 |

Sophie’s Zoo-Themed 3rd Birthday Party

Sophie turned 3 on October 16! It's hard to believe she's been a 3-year-old for a month already. Where has the time gone? Like we do every year, we had an early birthday party for Sophie (her birthday falls right in the middle of our busy harvest season around here!). But it's still just as special - plus, I'm of the opinion that having your birthday party on a different day than your birthday just spreads the celebration out more! How fun! :) Celebrating a couple weeks later on her actual … [Read more...]

Sophie’s Horse-Themed 2nd Birthday Party

January 11, 2020 |

Sophie’s Horse-Themed 2nd Birthday Party

Sophie has been obsessed with horses for a long time! By now, she has done at least 7 pony rides (on everything from miniature horses to horses way taller than me!). She's calm and confident around them, while still being careful. Bjorn told me he has already resigned himself to the fact that he will probably be buying Sophie a pony someday. :) This is all so fun for me because I loved horses as a young girl, too, but never really pursued riding or had close experiences with horses (until I took … [Read more...]

Sophie’s Woodland First Birthday Party

Sophie’s Woodland First Birthday Party

I'm so excited about today's post! There was a lot of thinking and dreaming involved in planning Sophie's first birthday party. I'm not one of those people who knew the theme immediately upon learning they're expecting (haha), but I watched Sophie grow and thought about her interests and likes in order to come up with this party theme! (After all, this may be the only birthday that she isn't requesting certain themes! Mama got to dream this one up!) RELATED: Sophie's 1 Year Update! I … [Read more...]

Some Reflections On My Birthday!

Some Reflections On My Birthday!

Today's my birthday!! It always sneaks up on me every year! We've just barely emerged from the happy chaos of the holidays, and we're bumbling along trying to get back into a routine...and then suddenly, I'm another year older! Wow! I turned 27 this morning. I'm officially in my late 20s now, according to my husband. :) (He's 9 days younger than me; he'll be in his late 20s soon enough!) Although I'm a little shocked at how old 27 sounds, I'm mostly filled with gratitude for what the last … [Read more...]

Happy Birthday to Bjorn! (26 Things I Love About Him)

It's my husband's birthday today!! Happy birthday, love! :) I turned 26 last week (I'm 9 days older than my husband!) and thought that Bjorn's birthday called for a special post on the blog today. He is such a huge part of my life (obviously) - and he also is a big-time encourager and cheerleader of this blog, so he deserves a shoutout on Just Bee today! :)  In honor of Bjorn's special day, I wanted to share 26 things I absolutely love about him. There are definitely countless other … [Read more...]

Thoughts on the Eve of Turning 26

Thoughts on the Eve of Turning 26

It's 7 pm on the eve of my turning 26 years old. I'm sitting in bed, cozied up in pajamas with my Low Key Bee Spotify music playing, a stack of books to my left, and my husband reading and working on my right. It's amazing how much music can affect me. I switched it on and immediately felt tension begin to melt. I just took my first truly deep breath of the entire day so far, and I'm feeling myself start to relax. We just returned home from a city council meeting in our small town, where I … [Read more...]
