Back in the Groove – New Drops, Life Updates & A Whole Lot of Heart

LaRae & Co Threads, LLC is back and creating again—dropping fresh summer tanks, tees, and cozy crews just in time for the 4th of July. This season’s lineup is full of sarcastic quotes, outdoor vibes, and yes… plant tops (because plants deserve merch too, right?). Whether you’re camping, adventuring, or soaking up the sun, I’ve got something for you.

But let’s be real—life behind the scenes has been a lot. Finalizing my dad’s estate has taken an emotional toll. This was our first Father’s Day without him, and honestly, it hit hard. It’s the “firsts” that sneak up on you—Easter dinner, the first backyard cookout, and all the little moments where I still reach for my phone to hear his voice. The silence is loud. And the ache is real.

At the same time, my son has been busy updating his home and preparing for a new chapter. Watching him grow into this next season is beautiful—but let’s just say, my mama heart is feeling all the things. And right alongside that, I’ve been helping my daughter prepare for her wedding. Planning her bridal shower has been such a joy, but watching her step into this next chapter of her life has pulled on my heart in ways I never expected. There’s something so emotional about seeing your child build a life of their own—exciting, beautiful, and a little bittersweet.

Losing my Etsy shop was another unexpected curveball. It’s been tough navigating a new platform, but my new storefront is finally coming together—and it looks amazing. Now comes the challenge: getting it out there. I’ve also been researching eBay and learning the ropes in hopes of launching a second shop soon. Fingers crossed I’ll have some exciting news to share soon!

Thank you for being here through it all—more fun, bold, and beautifully sarcastic items are on the way. Stay tuned… and stay blooming. 🌿
