Courage, Creativity & Community
Welcome to Graceful Living
I’m so glad you’re here.
Graceful Living is my invitation to slow down, embrace joy, and uncover beauty in the midst of everyday life — not through comparison or perfection, but by living with intention, celebrating the unique, God-given gifts that light each of us up, and courageously engaging them in ways that bring beauty and joy to the world.
Here, you’ll find a blend of creativity, faith, rhythms, and reflections from my own journey — including how our family has learned to seek joy even in seasons of uncertainty. What began as a way to ground myself in the middle of life’s responsibilities has become a space to celebrate the gifts that make life full: baking and watercolor, friendship and community, fresh air and fresh perspective.
This is not about having it all together. It’s about choosing not to let our hearts go “missing in action,” but instead showing up with hope, creativity, and courage — whatever that looks like in your own season.
My hope is that you’ll leave here inspired to embrace joy, beauty, and meaning in your everyday life — glimpses of “on earth as it is in heaven” woven into your daily rhythms.

“Living with intention and courage, with a heart fully alive — choosing joy in the unknown, creating beauty in the everyday, nurturing community along the way, and glimpses of heaven woven here on earth.”
Sunday Supper: A Meal with Intention
There’s something quietly meaningful about Sunday Supper—the way it gathers everyone, slows the pace, and turns an ordinary evening into something you look forward to all week. What began as a simple family ritual has grown into a favorite tradition filled with good food and connection. This week, Christina hosted a special meal to thank friends who’ve become like family, proving that even the simplest gathering can be a beautiful expression of gratitude and togetherness.
Falling for Brown
There’s something grounding about brown—the way it feels warm, timeless, and effortless all at once. This season, Christina is leaning into rich shades of espresso, caramel, and cinnamon across both style and home. From cozy knits to earthy accents, she’s gathered her favorite fall pieces that bring comfort and elegance into everyday life.
My Morning Routine
There’s a quiet kind of magic in the way Christina begins her mornings. Instead of rushing, she embraces a slower rhythm—one that gives her space to breathe, reflect, and ease into the day. Her routine is filled with simple, intentional rituals that turn mornings into a gentle reset. From the first sip of coffee to the stillness she carves out just for herself, these small choices set the tone for everything that follows.
