TheEssentialLife.Us was started in 2017 to share our lives and our passions with the people we love. Homer and Alicia are active in leadership ministry at their local church and have 5 kids, and one cat named Chester.

Merry Christmas everyone, from the Purdys! Our kids are spread all around the world, but we still find a way to laugh together! We are so blessed and looking forward to celebrating the birth of our King and worshipping the Lord for His love, the reason for which our Savior was born!

Took me 11 years, but I finally got around to buying our family new Christmas stockings and painting our names on little, wooden tags. #coffeepower #christmasdecor

We laughed. We cried. We fought. We figured stuff out. We laid aside old things and awakened to new ones. "A Weekend to Remember" really delivered a fresh word in season for us! #familylifeWTR #upstateny

#familylifeWTR WE. STILL. DO. 😍

If I wanted diamonds, he'd give them to me. If I wanted vacations, he'd take me. If I wanted fancy things, he'd buy them. But I dont. Today he surprised me with some goggles so all the shards of wood, clumps of dirt, sheetrock dust, wood shavings and insulation don't keep blowing into my eyes as we remodel our home together. This is the kind of love about which fairy tales SHOULD be written. 😍😭♥️🙌👫🔨 . #fairytales #trueromance #bestfriends #togetherness #remodel #diy #fixerupper #upstateny #40something #hardwork #buildingahouse #ourhouse #momof5 #husbandandwife #hammertime #houserenovation #thisoldhouse #samebrain #romantic
