    You are my absolute hero this month. Since mid-December, I've been in a foreign country where women do not exactly have the privileges and comforts I enjoy at home in Tennessee... As selfish as I feel for this, I ache for my family and the beauty and comfy-ness of home. Your videos bring me that home feeling, and I look forward to each one so much. Thank you so much for everything Allison.

    Allison I can completely relate! I would always put too much on my plate when hosting and running around trying to make everything perfect and feeling like I ran out of time and finally one day my husband was like you need to choose easier things on your menu and you can chose things that you can prep the night before. I’ve learned over the years but you remind me of my younger self

That if nobody else would come up with these ideas, that I would be the one to create those memorable experiences.

    A beautiful vlog. I'm going back over old ones. The butterflies are made of rice/waffer paper (you use in baking) and painted with food colouring.. they are perfectly safe to eat.. they just taste of nothing. I have been buying them to decorate my birthday cake each year for the last 7+yrs. It has become a tradition my kids love 😊.

    You keep my heart focused towards promise amd making that beautiful. We lost our home in 2020 to the hurricanes in Lake Charles Louisiana. We relocated last fall to Arkansas. We rent a place but I miss my house so much bc it was a cozy home my husband and I worked so hard on for 11 years. But I know God is going to give us a new home this year and allow us to grow and produce new fruit for him in a new way. I am so thankful for you Allison, I am much like you in my style and dress. I wear what makes my mood happy and surrounded my self with color to see all God's beauty. You are so joyful and beautiful and it comes from who God created you to be and where he is taking you. I am again so blessed to watch you for a few years and you inspire so many. Keep filling your self with God and it is surely shining in all you do....not just content you create which is amazing. 🥰 praying for health and blessings for you Brandon and Palmer in this new year💗
