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!!

Somewhere along our way, we picked up the belief t Somewhere along our way, we picked up the belief that questions weren’t okay. Maybe it’s because we had an experience that made us feel dumb - we asked a question and we got made fun of. We then picked up the belief that we’re already supposed to know it all, and that when we question, it means we are inadequate. That questioning is unsafe.

Kids ask questions constantly, so they learn constantly. They haven’t yet taken on the belief that they need to know more than they do right now. Because how could they possibly? It makes sense. They’re curious and ask all of the questions in all of the ways.

Let’s do that.

Let’s ask the questions. In every way. From all the angles. And then focus on where we are turning for the answers because WHERE we are turning matters. I think God will guide us if we ask Him. He knows how to speak to us in ways that we will hear, but only if we turn to Him.

He’s got us.

Questions are EVERYTHING and I want to live to my last day with a million questions that I expect answers to in His way. He’ll show up for me. And I’ll know He’ll show up for you, too. 🤍 #parcellsundayselfie 6/4/23 #sundaybest #christianposts
Truly and genuinely @orbitbaby has saved me as a m Truly and genuinely @orbitbaby has saved me as a mom to twins and now mom to 3! Why I love it:

🤍 The car seat and stroller seat rotates so it makes it a great place for baby on walks and other places like restaurants because I can face him where I need to! He can be facing towards me as I’m seated or avoid sun in his face on walks!

🤍 I love that the car seat pops directly into the stroller base. If he’s sleeping I don’t have to wake him up and it makes going ANYWHERE so much easier and gives me so much less anxiety when I take my crew out and about 😅🤍

Let me know if you have questions! #orbitbaby #sponsored #newbaby #momhacks #momlife #stroller #travelsystem

Tyler asked Harris while preparing for his primary Tyler asked Harris while preparing for his primary talk to speak in church what his favorite part of church was, and he answered honestly:

“The treat at the end.”

I laughed and laughed, and I also realized that this truth spoken from his mouth was spot on.

I pray, and I write and I listen and I study because in those moments is when I can hear Him.

I see Him in truth everywhere. He is in all things. His lessons are gently whispering in the textures, the smells, and the relationships I give my energy to.

I put forth effort by my small acts of showing up and telling Him I’m listening and His spirit is the “treat at the end.” And during. And before - even when I sometimes don’t notice it quite yet.

🤍🤍🤍 Happy Sabbath my beautiful friends!!! His knows you by name. He sees you and hears you and ADORES what He created - you. 🤍 #parcellsundayselfie 5/21/23 #sundaybest
