Happy Birthday Wishes Across The Miles

By Chris Ann on February 7, 2013 4 Comments

Today is Kristin's birthday!! Our tradition around LoveFeast Table is to write each other a birthday post. Distance means so little when someone means so much. People often ask us how we manage our business and also our 18 year friendship, with 10 years of it living apart in two different states.

Our Friendship Story ~ Beads

By Chris Ann on January 17, 2013 4 Comments

I remember as we left the nursery after the first time we met Devon and Kristin that the nursery care giver had said, "I never saw two babies that age actually seem to interact with each other." We figured if our small babies got along so well in the nursery, their parents probably might get along too. And, so we hoped for the best. We enjoyed their son's first birthday and then our son's. One afternoon I sat, round and pregnant folding laundry on my sofa. To my surprise there was a midday knock at the door. I could … [Read more...]

Our Friendship Story~Part 2

By Kristin on December 22, 2012 1 Comment

We were a little nervous. We'd never been to their home before and here they had invited us to celebrate their son's 1st birthday with them. We pulled up and squeezed our Hyundai Scoop in behind a few other cars. There were a lot of people here. We unbuckled our son, popped the trunk and got our gift out of the back. Linking fingers, we walked up the sidewalk towards the house. We heard a lot of voices coming from the back yard. "Do we go to the front door or just walk around back?" I asked Devon. "Let's just go around back," he … [Read more...]

Our Friendship ~ Story Part 1

By Kristin on November 28, 2012 7 Comments

Colorado was behind us now. We had left our sanctuary, our beginnings as a married couple. He was just 19 and I was 22. We had married on a mountaintop and had our baby in a town where no one knew our past. Our little town of LaVeta only had 700 people in residence. LaVeta was the perfect stage for falling in love. We woke up every morning, facing the Spanish Peaks, the only mountain range in Colorado that ran east to west. It daily pointed it's majestic finger to home. We would drive up a windy road, weaving in and out of the … [Read more...]

Hostess Gift Inspiration – Early Holiday Sale

By Chris Ann on November 8, 2012 1 Comment

I can remember one dinner party in particular where Kristin and her husband Devon served a lovely fish dinner. About 4 couples sat at 8 chairs around the vintage door tables that I loved. The rubbed worn paint finish under the plate of salmon in the soft candlelight is a memory I still remember. Everything was soft. The dim lighting and the happy conversation of friends happy to be gathered at the table. At each placesetting was a terracotta pot with fresh herbs. The table was simple and elegant. At the end of the … [Read more...]

Sisterhood

By Kristin on September 23, 2012 7 Comments

Courtesy of Jen Johnson Photography She stitched carefully, placing the needle gently through the swatch of fabric she had clipped from her old bed sheet. The sheet that had covered her on warm summer nights and held her through dreams and restless sleep. It's faded rose buds receded into the fibers of the fabric, dull but softly outlined. It was worn to silky smoothness and she lingered on it's familiar feel. She bound it one stitch at a time, ever so delicately, to a piece taken from a new pile of cloth. She had stacks of … [Read more...]
