Celebrating our favorite 5 year old in style today. He looked around at the cakes in the grocery store bakery & requested one like this, so I did my best! 🖤 Also, question for you guys—have you ever tried freezing cakes to make them easier to frost? I tried it this time around & it was... just as crumbly as not freezing them. Please advise. #katielewisbakes

Wishing I could go downstairs & make something with my hands, but everything still needs to stay staged & ship shape while we’re selling our home, so in the mean time: some day dreams from lately... // Finally building our own home (someday) & adding a little barn on the property where I could host workshops & get togethers. Maybe build a few teeny tiny houses where guests could stay too. // Continue working on my plan of salvation quilt. It’s been in progress for months & with all the moving & making plans, I’ve barely even started. // Sewing more clothes for myself and my kids. More tops & some jeans inspired by a new fave pair I saw a friend wear the other day, built for work + play & timelessly good. // Write more. Poetry, thoughts, fiction. The truth is I’m a terrible fiction writer, but that’s no reason not to do it. // Work on my sweater. I finished knitting all the pieces, but I’ve never properly blocked any knitting or seamed pieces together and both are intimidating me. But I also want to have something to knit again and eventually be able to wear it. // #katielewisdailyshare

My daughter beat me to it, but tonight after the kids went to bed I also finished reading The Book of Mormon. I’ve read it many times before and my testimony of the Lord deepens every time I do, but this time was different in several ways. It was the shortest amount of time in which I’ve ever read The Book of Mormon. It was the first time I’ve read it alongside one of my children. And as I read it this time I followed President @russellmnelson ‘s counsel to highlight each reference to the Savior. By all His names, in all His love and mercy and calls to repentance, through all His prophets and disciples and counsels and commands, and by His very own voice. The pages of my Book of Mormon are shining with the pure and simple testimony that I have come to know personally—that Jesus is the Christ and that He loves us and calls us ever back to Him. I used this highlighter on each and every reference. This bit is all that’s left. #katielewisdailyshare

We’re moving to Oregon! 🌿 Virginia has been an incredible blessing in so many ways. We thought we’d settle & stay here forever, but over the past several months Bryan & I have both felt a tug on our hearts that our family needed to be somewhere else. It’s been in the works for weeks + months & now it’s official—we’re moving to Oregon where Bryan will be starting work at a new office in March! We’re of course sad to leave our family & friends out here on the east coast, but we’re all just so sincerely excited to start our next chapter together back in the west. 🌲🌲🌲 (pic from our family visit to OR this past oct)

Making Christmas presents is one my very favorite things. My husband Bryan & I dreamed up this little town mat & buildings for the kids and worked on them for weeks. I sewed some big pieces of muslin together for the mat & then Bryan planned & painted it. For the buildings I worked from sketches he drew and then I cut the pieces with our jigsaw, sanded everything, put it together, & painted it. 🌊⛵️ I made a harbor office with lots of little boats (that really float!) for our 4 year old son. 🚂 For our one year old son I made a simple little train station. 📚🌷🍰 And for our 9 year old daughter I made a set of three little shops. I built shelves from wooden spools + slats & we supplemented with miniature goodies from hobby lobby & lots of new trains from ikea. We’ve been up for hours & they haven’t stopped playing with them yet! Merry Christmas! 🎄❤️ #katielewismakes

When my sister Polly was a teenager she & her best friend made super good dinner rolls a few times a year & sold them to family & friends through orders placed over the phone. If I could do the sugar cookie version of that I would. ✨ // cookies by me + photo via @thejonesmarket ❤️ #katielewiscookies #katielewisbakes
