It’s Christmas Eve and I’m in a pensive mood. Thoughts float to you and the heartfelt gratitude I have for you as a part of my extended family. This year has been a remarkable year and none of this would have been possible without your readership, love, and support. Simply put, I appreciate you.

As the day progresses, the night falls and Christmas morning arrives, let us all reflect on those who have been a blessing to us and of course the true reason for the season.

Love to All,
Erika

HI,
I'M ERIKA.

Beyond the Blueprint is a curated journal where legacy, lifestyle, and intentional design converge.

Here, I share stories from the heart of my home and the homes I create—faith-filled reflections, family rhythms, wellness practices, and design inspiration rooted in grace and purpose.

From motherhood and marriage to the sidelines of Friday night lights, each entry offers a glimpse into the layered life I live—and the brands, spaces, and values that support it.

Whether you're here to be inspired, encouraged, or aligned, welcome. This is life beyond the blueprint
