I wish that I would have recorded Tyler as we opened these boxes for emergency preparedess. First, he was in a bear costume. No, I’m not kidding. We are going to be Goldilocks and the 3 Bears for Halloween, and our costumes had just arrived so Tyler was trying his on. We were just about to head upstairs to go to bed when I opened up these emergency preparedness boxes and I was cracking up because my husband, in a bear costume, was sitting at the table saying things like, “Cool!!!” “Oh my gosh this is amazing.” “Are you kidding me?!” He was in a bear costume. The image is making me laugh right now!!

The whole idea for this blog post came when I did an Instagram story about a month or so ago on a Saturday night. I was cleaning out the fridge and Tyler was putting together his “go bag” for emergency preparedness which means a bag that you can grab and go that has emergency and survival essentials if find yourself in any type of disaster. I showed him putting together his bag in my story, and I got a TON of replies with questions about what was in it and where to buy the items! I was honestly kind of surprised momentarily, but then I thought, of course everyone wants to be prepared!! The world is in absolute chaos right now. Fires, floods, hurricanes…you want to be confident that you can take care of yourself when there aren’t any other resources available to help you.

And then I thought, “let’s make this easier for my people!” So Tyler hopped on the computer and looked up a company that he had heard really good things about. Buying your items through Emergency Essentials saves a LOT of time rather than putting it all together yourself and it also saves money buying it in bulk like this. A WIN WIN!!

We want to feature two of the packages for emergency preparedness that we think are a really good fit and all of the details are below! Use code PREPARE at checkout to get 10% off!

  1. Deluxe 72-hour emergency kit – Tyler was absolutely freaking out when he started pulling out the items in this kit. He was actually surprised because after adding everything up, it saves so much money buying it prepared already like this than it does in searching for each item and buying them separately. Plus, it saves so much time. PLUS for those of us that know nothing about what we will really need when we are going through a natural disaster (ahem…me) this makes it really easy to feel confident in your preparedness. This kit is $279.95 (valued at $401.99 if you bought everything separately) AND you can use code PREPARE at checkout to get it for only $251.96! This kit includes the 12 Areas of Preparedness which are:
    • Water: Katadyn BeFree Water Bottle Filter
    • Food: 9 Single Serve Mountain House Pouches
    • Shelter: SOL Emergency Bivvy
    • Warmth: Fire-Starting Disk, Stormproof Matches, Body & Hand Warmer (2)
    • Light & Power: GoalZero Torch 250
    • Sanitation: Washcloths & SpacePaste
    • First-Aid: 45-Piece First Aid Kit
    • Communication: 5-in-1 Whistle
    • Cooking: HydroHeat Cooker w/ Heat Packs (box of 10), Fork
    • Tools: Multi Function Tool, Assault Backpack
    • Planning: Outdoor Card Skills Set
    • Hurricane: Leather Gloves & Hurricane Tape
  2. 2-Person 72-Hour Emergency Survival Kit – This is an awesome kit if you’re on more of budget but also want to be prepared to take care of yourself should a disaster occur. From their Web site: This two-person emergency kit provides you with all the basic tools and gear for a 72-hour period. Complete with two 3600 calorie food bar and 18 pouches of water, your dietary needs are taken care of. That, combined with other essentials for warmth, first-aid, light, shelter, and communication makes this 72-hour kit an essential partner for your car, home, or camping trips. Keep it in an easy-to-reach location as your preferred bug-out bag, because when a crisis arises, there won’t be much time to gather your supplies. This kit is $59.95 (valued at $89.99 if you bought everything separately) AND you can use code PREPARE at checkout to get it for only $53.96! 

My church focuses heavily on emergency preparedness and food storage in case of an emergency so that we can be as self sufficient as possible in order to help others in a crisis. I think many of the reasons why people have put off and procrastinated doing this is because it’s difficult to find the time to research what you need, find the best price and then order it. I LOVE that Emergency Essentials is making it SO easy and so affordable! They have many other incredible products including water and storage, and all types of emergency gear. The world is literally in mass chaos right now, and I’m so glad that I have a husband who has been taking it seriously. We have babies (and ourselves!) that we need to protect.

I hope you guys have a great day!!

“You’re right on time.” Warner stayed home “You’re right on time.”

Warner stayed home sick from church today and Tyler and I swapped after the first hour so we could each attend half. I took the older 2 kids to sacrament meeting, but we were running about 10 minutes late - it was rainy and we had some umbrella malfunctions, they were trying to check the mail for their sticker book that should have arrived and kept dropping the mail into the puddles 🤣…we just weren’t as prompt today like we normally like to be.

I was a little flustered because I didn’t want to miss the prayer and passing of the bread and water for the sacrament. We bustled in the doors just as they were about to close. The older gentleman that held the door whispered to me, with a knowing smile as we walked through, “You’re right on time.”

What a beautiful thing to say someone. He could tell I wanted to be there, settled in my seat, as the meeting started. His reassuring words that it was all okay made me think of my Heavenly Father telling me the same thing.

“I see you’re trying. I know your heart. You’re learning what you need to learn. You’re right on time.” 🥹

He sees you, too.

You do NOT need to buy Christmas decor every year You do NOT need to buy Christmas decor every year because trends change and your personal preference and style evolves. Here’s how I use the same decor over and over again:

- Buy NEUTRAL colored decor! You can mix in small items that have color if you want to decorate with color one year (maybe you’re loving red this year?!) but always keeps the base the same. You’ll use these year after year!
- Ribbon goes a long way! If you have neutral colored wreaths, you can add a bright pop of a color you love.

Comment LINK below and I’ll DM you my neutral Christmas decor recommendations!

I use this same strategy when buying anything for my house. When all of the colors feel cohesive, your world seems more orderly and your brain has less to process.

Life is short but your impact is BIG! The question Life is short but your impact is BIG! The questions I’m asking myself today as I prepare for a new week are:

- Where am I wasting my time on negative energy?

- What habits are getting in the way of what I want to create?
