Saturday kicks off with some candle-making for the Glow Series – just me, quiet vibes, and pouring wax with amazing scents. If I get the chance, I might whip up a few batches of soaps as well! Plus, I\u2019ll be chipping away at posts and getting content ready for YouTube and TikTok, giving everyone little sneak peeks of light, good vibes, and some chill moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By evening, I\u2019m looking forward to being at chapel for a few hours. It\u2019s not just a time to pause, but a wonderful opportunity to connect with our Heavenly Father. That\u2019s where the weekend truly comes alive. This is the most uplifting part of my week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Sunday kicks off with church, followed by a hearty breakfast, and culminates in the joy of grilling with my son and his family. It’s filled with laughter, delicious food, and a powerful sense of togetherness which is a blessing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And then\u2026 chai tea in hand, I\u2019ll be packing for a 5 am CST flight on Monday morning. Oh, yeah, I will be taking two people out for their birthdays after 5 pm EST on Monday. By that evening, I\u2019ll be a puddle of exhaustion. Yuck, yuck, yuck! But worth it (I think?). It is!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If any part of this weekend speaks to you drop a comment or share your own plans. I\u2019d love to hear what\u2019s bringing you light this weekend<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
