Hey There!

I am Nicole Fergesen, mama to four, new Iowan and part time New Hampshire girl. I believe in Jesus, live on coffee, and love functional fashion. I also dabble in home design and relentlessly find beauty in everything. Wife to Dustin, widow of Marcus, blending a family and finding grace in the journey.

I WANT IN

(Swipe to see the final product!) I really wanted our bed to be inviting with lots of layers (I run cold, @dfergesen runs warm, so we need options). After a lot of trial and error, we’ve finally reached perfect! The room is not done (floors will be in a few months), we have some built ins to make and the trim still needs to be painted (and vent and outlet covers put back on but who is keeping track 😆), but going to bed every night in a super cozy bed makes at least one spot feel calm amidst all the renovation chaos.

Demo begins tomorrow on the cave kitchen! 🛠 I am beyond excited to get rid of all the brown and tan. This is by far the biggest project I’ve taken on... we’re talking moving walls, reconfiguring, the whole thing! And, we’ve already hit a bump in the road, and it hasn’t even started 😬 Follow along and watch my stories for behind the scenes and updates (saved to Kitchen Reno highlight). Let’s see if we can get this done before baby girl arrives in 13 weeks! #nopressure 😅 http://liketk.it/3eyZE photo by @alvarengaart #liketkit @liketoknow.it #kitchen #renovation #home #reno #bump #style #dreamhome #kitchenremodel #dreambig #goals @dfergesen

Fun girls date to Pella with my little loves & Elliott’s mom ❤️ it is the cutest little town! We saw the most gorgeous flowers (we came the weekend before the tulip festival so locals, check it out next weekend!), and perfect weather was a recipe for a great morning.
Also our kitchen renovation starts this week! Check out my stories for a tour of our current kitchen and what our plans are. http://liketk.it/3emUM #liketkit @liketoknow.it #pella #girlsdate #happyheart #pellaiowa #tulips #iowalife #midwestliving #blendedfamily

What is your conversation like? Are you lifting others up or tearing them down? Are you giving the benefit of the doubt?
How you treat people is a reflection of you and who you are. Are we honoring God with how we interact? Are we a reflection of Christ?

What if we shifted towards an attitude of more grace, more understanding, and more love in the way we interacted.

Relationships are hard. They take work. And we can’t control how other people respond. But with the proper perspective, perseverance, and vulnerability, with a heavy dose of humility, they can be fantastic and beneficial!

Lesson: projects always take waaaaay longer than expected. 😅 we began the E2 room renovation back in February, expecting it to take a weekend. Ha. Well, here we are in almost May, and it’s still not done. But we are 95% there! So here’s a sneak peek of a pretty little corner that makes me so happy 😍 hopefully we will have this room all done by the beginning of June!

Dustin asked the kids on my birthday what their favorite thing about me was. Their answers? The fact I do their laundry and make them food 🤣 Dustin said it was my kind heart, and it made me feel so good. It got me thinking; what is your life marked by?
How will people remember you?

5.
I pulled out the hand painted number from the slim pile of the pieces that made the cross country trek from my last house. I took the move as an opportunity to start over when it came to decor and furniture, and that was one of the few things that made it. Not that it had any special significance beyond the fact that I had made it myself, initially indicated for what was the number of people in our family, hung in a gallery above our living room tv. And now, it means something different, almost more noteworthy. Honoring the past while embracing the present. Five people. Now five babies. Five beautiful blessings. And a nod to what brought us here.

A sweet friend gifted me this bracelet the same week I put this frame up, and it was just such a sweet God wink. He knows my story. He has seen where I’ve been and knows where I’m going.

So while my decor is very much thrown up and not properly styled, the bookcases need to be painted and redone, seeing that little glimmer of hope and hope restored makes my heart swell.

God is in it. He always has been and always will be.
