About Jennifer Todryk
Hey there! I’m Jenn.

Things get a little loud and chaotic over here from time to time. I blame the three child beasts ... and Mike is loud too. But, I hope to bring you nothing but happiness, inspiration, good home decor and only the comfiest clothing recommendations because, who really enjoys pants .... ? And most importantly a good laugh. I hope you laugh a lot… even if it’s at my expense.

I hope y’all had an amazing Christmas season this year! We had a great time with both Mike’s and my family over Christmas Eve and Christmas day. I totally cheated and catered in Christmas Eve dinner from Olive Garden this year and LET ME TELL YOU…It was amazing! 🙌🏼 It was absolutely worth saving my time to have someone else make that meal so I could spend more time with family. I also cheated on Christmas day! 😂 I ordered the turkey and ham from Whole Foods (something I’ve done for the past five years) because I am just not mentally ready to be the person who burns the turkey to the point of it being inedible.

I would literally cry.

Have y’all done a playroom/kids’ closets cleanout yet? I HIGHLY recommend doing this a week or so before Christmas as it definitely lessens the stress of bringing in new toys! I loved having empty drawers ready for the new toys rather than adding more toys into an already overwhelming playroom. This week I am going to be organizing the kids’ clothes for this same reason… it’s time for a clothing rotation around here! Storage tubs are $5 at Target righjt now- FYI!)

Just want to end my last post for the DECADE (so crazy!) by saying thank you for being here! Honestly, 2019 was a life changing year for me. I feel like I got my groove as a mom of three, a working mom of three to be exact! If you have been following along for a few years than you know that I did not create this blog/platform with the intention of ever calling it a “job”. To say I was (and still am some times) a little naïve about this “blogger life” is an understatement.

I made the choice in 2019 to dedicate more time to this space, write more posts, take the time to “link up” clothes y’all would DM me about, and share more products that I am using in my every day life in order to make this a little part time gig for myself. So many things have come from this change, I hired someone to help me part time because there is no way I could shop Christmas décor sales, write blog posts AND keep three kids alive by myself! 😬 She has become one of my closest people, she spent Christmas Eve with our family, eating and playing games alongside my parents, siblings, and extended family which is just so awesome! It is super scary to let someone in to your safe bubble and daily life and to have someone that I trust so much is truly a gift! 2019 also welcomed a coffee shop that people drive across states to visit, which is just still mind blowing for Mike and I, a TV show that I promise I will have updates on VERY shortly, and other experiences that my family would have never gotten to be a part of if it wasn’t for this little corner of the internet where I do my Mommy rants. 🤗

I am forever grateful to God for blessing my family and I will continue to praise and talk about Him along this journey, wherever it may take me and my family. I pray for this platform, for the people who follow along and support us throughout life every single night because I truly believe that this community is a blessing I never saw coming. Whether you stick around until Instagram dies or decide to leave me after I say POOP one too many times, I am thankful for the time you were here, no matter how long or short! I’m not perfect at this Instagramming thing, I’m afraid I never will be, but I am just hopeful that you can continue to find joy and honesty in whatever I’m sharing. This makes me happier than appearing like the redheaded chick who seems to be flawless, because we all know that is not the case! I pledge to be a filter free zone even if my feed isn’t very pretty! 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

Happy New Year, friends! May 2020 be whatever you need it to be! I’ve never chosen a word to describe a new year but for some reason the word JOY is weighing heavy on me when I think about 2020. I pray for joy for not just me and my family, but for yours as well!

God bless you and your family! ❤️

    • I love when at the end of the day I can watch your posts and laugh,thanks for all you share! Your Wis.friend! Go Pack! Josie
  • Happy New Year!!! And thank you for sharing your world with us. I truly enjoy seeing your family grow and all the shenanigans that entails. Thanks for making me laugh on days where there was not much to laugh about. Looking forward to 2020!!
  • Happy New Year Jenn! So glad I found you on Instagram this year! You have become my favorite person to follow! Your stories and posts just brighten up my day! Wishing you & your family the very best into this New Year! 💕💕
  • I so look forward to your daily post! You and your family are just amazing! Thank you for sharing so much and taking the time to be so wonderful! Happy New Year! 🎊
  • You’ve been so fun to follow. Love your family as well. Blessings going forward and here’s to dreams coming true. Next time I visit my friend in Duncanville.... I’m looking that coffee shop up. Seriously tho, live your humor, style, and zeal for making us better people too
  • THANK YOU!!! Thank you for being real! I never thought I'd be that person who followed anyone on IG ... now I refer to you as "my friend that I follow on IG" to everyone LOL I have purchased numerous items b/c Jenn said they were legit! I've told countless stories to my friends and family like I knew you... and Mike and the kiddos! Again thanks for being real and all the laughs! God Bless in 2020 - I'll be watching!
  • Well said! Happy New Year to all! Not sounds perfect! God bless us all! 🙏❤️😍
  • You have put a smile on my face and I have had those belly laughs at some of your post! You bring me joy now and I can’t wait for 2020 ! Blessings to you and your family ❤️
  • Made me emotional too. I enjoy following along with your imperfect, true, believable, funny, real family. Happy New Year! Here’s to much Joy in the New Year!
  • Thank you for sharing your farewell letter of 2019 with us. Your family is such a joy & I love watching your stories on your feed every single day. Every single one of you are so cute & funny. Especially Vivi at this age. May God Bless your family & keep doing what you’re doing. Love you guys. Happy 2020💕💕💕
  • Jen, Thank you for being you and letting the Instagram world into yours and your family’s life. You are so genuine and kind and your letter made me cry tears of joy. Thank you for being so authentic. I appreciate you!
  • I started following you several months ago and you are EASILY my very favorite person I follow. You’re the kind of person that I would totally want to be friends with in real life. Thanks for all you do and I hope you and your sweet little crew have a fabulous new year! ❤️
  • I just love you Jenn!!! You are so real and I love that!! Here’s to 2020!!! Happy New Year!!
  • You just plain make me laugh everyday ! You are so natural !
  • If you always remember what JOY stands for: Jesus, Others, Yourself (in that order) You are following that! Keep up your good works, your beautiful spirit along with your beautiful family.
  • Your letter to 2019 also makes me emotional! Why am I crying? It’s been a hard year for me, but I believe God put you in my life (IG life) for a reason. You make me laugh hysterically on a daily basis and I believe laughter is the best medicine. My kids love watching your kids on stories. I love how you keep it real and there is no filter. It’s funny you mentioned joy because joy has been the word at top of mind lately and thinking 2020 will bring a lot of joy. Hope it does for you and your family too! Keep doing your thing in the next decade! ❤️
  • Speaking of "joy"...that is what you are to me. I look forward to seeing your IG post whenever you share. I don't do fashion, nor house décor, and don't even have young kids....mine are grown but I have 2 young grandkids (age 9 and 5). But, you make me laugh and that is what I love to do. I love to laugh and to make others laugh (maybe that is what redheads are here on earth for)! Anyway, I want to thank you for sharing your ideas, your family, your findings, your humor, and your heart! You bring people JOY and I pray that you get joy in return. Before Christmas, I wrote you a parody (a hobby of mine) and tried to send it to you in various ways, but, I know you get so many DMs and emails that it probably got lost in the mix. Maybe one day, I can get it to you. It's to the tune of "Jingle Bells". Happy 2020
  • Thank you Jen, for being real and showing us alittle of you're life. I love your personality and humor. You're real, refreshing and I can't wait to see what 2020 brings! Happy New Year to you and you're lovely family.
  • This is so sweet. I gotta say, I am eternally grateful to have you and your instagram/blog presence in my life. I’m also a red headed Mama of 3 young kiddos (all boys) and watching you do you has brought me so much joy. You crack me up every single day but are also super helpful with sales and day-to-day life information. You’re seriously the best and I don’t ever want you to stop social media! You have no idea who I am but I feel like we’re already friends. Haha! ;) May God bless you and your beautiful family richly in 2020!
  • Idk how I got through my homeschooling mom days with out your stories as my “personal break” from it all. I learned through ur slides, I got inspiration and motivation and best of all I laughed, and I laughed! So thank you for being you and being here for us! Happy New Year!
  • Happy New Year Jenn, lovely to see you your audience has grown from the Tuesday laundry with Berkley on Facebook (seems so long ago!) Hope you & yours are blessed with an amazing 2020 (but could anything really top this year for you).
  • Happy New Year to you as well 🎉
  • Happy New Year to you, and your beautiful family! Thank you for your openness and sharing your life with all of us! You are a true blessing.
  • Happy New Year! I’ve enjoyed getting to know you and all the laughs we’ve shared this year😉. My husband keeps reminding me, “ you remember you don’t really know her....right?” HA! Whatever..... thanks again for being a breath of fresh air!
  • Enjoy you and your family immensely.
  • I look forward to your posts everyday. You have the most beautiful family. Thank you for sharing them with us. Happy New a year!
  • Thank you Jen for allowing into your space. Your Instagram has been a fun thing to enjoy with my 10year old daughter. She refers to by name and people assume you are our neighbor. Lol. My girlfriends and I buy all things you suggest so my bank account is not your biggest fan but my increased fashion sense thanks you. Can't wait to see what 2020 brings. God bless
  • You have brought such joy and smiles to some otherwise hard days! Love your little family. Mines all grown now but u are living in the Good ol days!! Your hubby is a doll and plain to see he adores you! Keep up the good work! And thanks for everything♥️
  • Thank you for the JOY you have brought me this year! I am so eager to see the JOY that awaits you and your family in 2020!
  • You truly are a JOY! I look forward to your stories and posts because you are just so real and authentic. As a Grandma to five boys, I find joy, love and humor in you and have also been inspired by your ideas and recommendations for kids. Keep up the great work you do and continue to enJOY life! Cheers and blessings to you and your adorable family in 2020!
  • Thank you for your realness and sharing your life with us!
  • You are my favorite follow on Instagram. Your humor, your realness, your honesty brightens my day. I was surprised by how much I missed your stories over Christmas, but I’m sure it was nice to be in the moment and enjoy your beautiful family. Thank you for being you!!
  • I love that I found your account! You’re such a blessing to me & refreshing to be real with us. I would have loved to have had a role model like you when I was a young mother. Keep up the great work! I enjoy your family & visiting with you each day! ❤️😊
  • I started following you shortly after Viv's birth, and you are the first person I hunt for every morning. You are such a real and upbeat person, and you and Mike are wonderful parents to those sweet crazy little babies of yours. I say WE are blessed because you are generous enough to share parts of your life with us. I can't wait to see what God has planned for you in 2020. Blessings!
  • Only been following about a month thanks to my friend Maggie, but I love you and your family. You make me laugh and that's a great gift to share with others. Much Joy to you in 2020.
  • Jen...thanks for your daily morning smiles and greeting. Sometimes I dont get to it until the afternoon but it fills my day just the same. I followed you for a year now and plan on continuing the new decade with you
  • Couldn’t agree more with the posts above!!! I absolutely adore watching you and your family, it literally brings me tears (laughter of course 😂). You are real and I genuine and I couldn’t thank you enough for that!! And and I think you Mike should make another baby!!!
  • I may have joined in around the time you and Mike used a vacuum and black trash bags on one another. At that moment I told myself, Yes, I have found my people! Thanks for all the laughs you and your family have provided this past year. All the best for 2020!
  • Thank YOU Jenn! I discovered you while on my maternity leave (just one month left...eek) and you have been such a light in some hard days with a new baby. You never fail to make me laugh, and I am so thankful that you share your life and family with all of us. Wishing you all the happiness for 2020!
  • You are such a joy to me!!! I love seeing your post and stories everyday! Thank you for being you!!
  • So grateful for your authenticity and love for the Lord. Loving it out messy and all. I love that you are you no matter what.
  • Thank you for sharing you and your awesome little family! Look forward to your posts and stories everyday. Cheers to 2020!
  • I don't know how I found you, but I'm so happy that I did! I look for your stories all day long (I'm not a stalker, but kinda am I guess). Best Wishes to you and your family and I wish pure JOY for you all in 2020!
  • Bravo!!! I always look forward to you “Good Morning” greetings!!! So refreshing. Happy new year to you and the fam! Bring on the JOY!!!
  • I feel like I'm blessed finding you. You and your adorable family crack me up. I pray for a healthy, happy, and blessed 2020 for all! ❤
  • I found you about 6 months ago and you have become one of my faves to follow. My kids are older (15, 11, 9, and 9,), but I relate to your personality so much.
  • Love you and your family! Keep doing you and giving it to God XOXO
  • This has been a tough few years for social media and in some ways it seems like a good thing for it to change, but there are a few people I would dearly miss and you would be one of them. You are fun and funny but also kind and warm and real. I appreciate all your “linking” of products but I never feel that you are pushing products on me. I don’t know you but you feel like a friend. Thanks, Jen, for sharing yourself ❤️
  • No matter what kind of day I’m having I look forward to seeing your posts every day !! I’m a grandmother of 6 & enjoy watching you & your beautiful family !! Don’t ever change ‘n
  • Jenn, I mean Rambling Redhead—that is what I call you! You are the first Instagram account I followed that is not a family member or friend. I read about your account and checked it out and have been looking forward to your posts ever since! I now follow about a dozen, 4 I stay with and with the others I switch it up. Twelve is my limit and my rule is: Does it bring me JOY. Yours does—which is why I love following you. To echo what everyone else has said, you keep it real, find the humor in the darkness, have fab taste and you love big. Thank you (and Mike, Von, Berkley and Vivi) for bringing the joy!
  • I look forward to your posts every day. They are real and make me feel like my messes are normal. Thank you for doing what you do! Happy 2020! Lets do the dang thang!
  • JOY has been my word for the past few years. In my mind it’s the ultimate emotion and can only be achieved after FAITH and LOVE and it goes hand in hand with PEACE. Happy New Year! I just found you a few months ago, but I really enjoy your IG posts and stories.
  • You are truly a JOY to watch everyday. I’ve enjoyed watching your family grow and the fun you all share together. It’s a breath of fresh air. Best wishes in 2020 and looking forward to your adventures ahead.
  • Jen, “JOY” is the perfect word cause it perfectly describes what you add to this crazy Instagram world. I look forward to visiting with you each day and some of my biggest laughs come from the stories you share of fun, crazy antics with your fun loving husband and your adorable children. You are such a blessing to all of us.
  • Have a happy new year!!! I love watching your posts. You a so honest and real. Your family is awesome. Thank you for always putting out genuine content. God Bless 🙏🏼
  • You’re the outside-the-box mom I came close to being. Now grandmom to 2 darlings, I’m always humored and refreshed by your posts and stories. God bless you in ‘20, Jenn & fam ♥️
  • Hi Jennifer, I found you last month on Instagram and have since become addicted to your IG stories. I’m a grandmother of four wonderful grandkids. Even though I am much older than your average audience, I think you have the gift/ability to appeal to all ages. I love how you let us meet your adorable family. You and your family brighten my days. Thank you.
  • Love following you and your fam on insta. I was wondering if sometime in the new year you can do a run thro on what's hot for new borns. My son and daughter in law are expecting in May and it's been a hot minute since we've had little pitter patters running around. We have no idea what hot and new out there.
  • I’m here for it! As you like to say! I started following you this year and have enjoyed every minute of it! You make me laugh daily! And we as moms, most definitely need a laugh now and then! So thank you for that and for always keeping it real! I get joy in just watching your little ones, they remind me of mine when they were small (both are teenagers now!) I look forward to seeing where 2020 takes all of us! Happy Holidays to you and yours!
  • I want to thank you so much for all the time and effort you dedicate to the ‘Gram, the blog, and your adoring public! I just think you’re the bees knees! ♥️♥️
  • Happy New Year! I've been following you on facebook since day 1. I don't do instagram! I hope you continue with facebook. I really enjoy your daily posts. You have such a beautiful family! Can't wait for your TV show!
  • I look forward to each day listening and reading your posts!!! Keep doing what you’re doing because you are amazing ❤️
  • I do look at your stories and feed every day. Why? I just like you. I am 69 and not remotely interested in your makeup tutorials or your American Eagle jeans. And yet I look every day! I have 3 daughters and you must be like my #4!! Your children are precious and I really like the interaction between you and Mike. You obviously have a strong marriage. Not common these days! OMG. I said “these days.” Looking forward to watching your family grow and fun stuff around your house these next years. Until I forget how to log on....
  • Joy is a perfect sentiment for 2020 and thank you so much for your daily humor and daily pick me up ! I’m at a different stage of life as an empty nester now having raised 3 boys but still get such joy out of your posts !!! Happy New Year to you and your family May it bring blessings beyond measure !!
  • You are a breath of authentic fresh air! God bless you and your sweet family!
  • I am so glad I found you! Someone on IG listed sites that are funny and I clicked on two. It's been hilarious but your kids make it worth watching! BTW, I'll come get your girls for a little while then return them. I have 6 grandsons so Von is out!! LOL
  • You are awesome! Love watching your stories as they always bring a smile to my face! Thank you for being you! 😊
  • Your IG stories & posts have brought me so much JOY in 2019. I may have laughed & snorted out loud at work, home, in public a few dozen times all thanks to you. Thanks for being raw, hell of a real & for sharing your sweet, adorable family. Happy new year & can't wait to see what 2020 brings. Put dang it I wanna see that HGTV show now!

  • I look forward to every post. I thank you for allowing me into your family. You guys bring a smile to my face. Vivi is the cutest ever and I look forward to watching her grow and one day get to finally play along with her siblings as they play. I love how your kids use there imaginations while playing and love learning. And to you and Mile I love watching to hijinks. Keep being you.
  • I love your “gooood morrrning” starts. You really brighten my day. Your husband is a hoot and your children are beautiful. Thank you for sharing your life with us. I hope 2020 brings you and your family many blessings.

    • I’m so thankful I found you. I look forward to seeing or reading what you have to say. You’re family is truly a beautiful family. Don’t know what we would do without Mike. 😂 You have beautiful children that seem to be so well mannered and fun. ❤️ Thank you so much for all the work y’all did on putting the Christmas lists together and for taking us along with y’all. I love Phylless & Floyeeeed. You make me laugh so much. I was able to go places I’ve never been, y’all took us along to see Frozen II. Can’t wait to see what you did on HGTV. I love your faith and not afraid to talk about God. Keep being you because that’s what I love about y’all. Your family is amazing and so full of love. Thank You. Much love to you and your family. Happy & Blessed New Year 2020!
  • I’m a lady of 77 years don’t want to say old because as my granddaughter says I have the mind of a 6 year old . I so much enjoy your post, your children and your quirky funny little ways lol I know you can’t see me but at times I’m laughing along with you. Happy New year to you and your family best year yet I hope🎉
  • You truly brighten my day. And I look forward to the smile I get watching you and your family. I even say good morning good morning the way you do in my head. Thanks for making a girl feel like she has another friend out there. Don’t doubt what you do because you DO make a difference.
  • You are the best and I truly enjoy following you. I do not follow many on IG but I never miss getting my daily dosage of Rambling Red. I love your family. Mike is hilarious and you’re children are precious. AND Viv could so much be a baby model. She is delightful to watch. Thank you for letting us into your life and sharing so honestly with us. May God bless you and your sweet family in 2020. 💜
  • Thank you so much for your laughter, down to earth real talk, and sharing your beautiful family with the world. So glad I stumbled upon you!
  • Thankful for your truthfulness and transparency on a platform where people can be downright hateful at times! Also so good to see you unafraid to talk about your faith and give Him the glory for this wonderful life we get to live! You're awesome!
  • Thank you for bringing JOY to us! Love following you and your family. Wishing you the best of all for the new year!
  • I love following you on Instagram! I miss you if I don’t get a chance to watch your posts. You are the first blogger I’ve ever bought things recommended. And I’ve done my fair share! Lol! I look forward to seeing you on TV. I am 56 years old and I find you hilarious and such a great mommy!
  • We all have "our people" and I'm thankful that you are "virtually" one of mine. Kindred spirit in more ways than one. God's blessings to you and yours from me and mine this almost new year. Bring on the JOY! Love from a Cheesehead in Wisconsin.
  • I started following you this year and I adore you! I love your style, clothing and home decor, but even more so, I think you are so relatable. You provide humor on the days that seem long. I , too, am a mom of three. My kids are 13, 10, and 8 and I love seeing you juggle yours as I continue to juggle mine. Happy Holidays!!
  • ☃️Happy Holidays Jenn & Family!❄️ Joy is the perfect word because I know for me, you and your family are a “Joy” to follow. It’s pretty funny because I watch you nearly every day ( I’m sorry you got the flu) and I stop myself when talking with others about to mention you and your family as if you we were personal friends or family. I like to share maybe a fun project you had done with your kids to my daughter for example and it seems kind of strange or even awkward how social media has evolved and I’m not sure where it all fits in. I guess in years to come it will be of the norm to mention IG accounts. My husband and I have been married for 40 years and still enjoy our life together we raised four kids . Now in their 30’s, all married and have blessed us with 8 grandchildren. I have plenty family to keep me busy for sure , however, I’ve adopted your family. I keep up with your stories for the most part and always pray for you all whenever I See you online. . I bet there are thousands of us out there like this. You’ve been my silent IG family adoption, taking on your family to learn and grow within ourselves, to pray beyond our own family. You project love give stability and the “ keeping it real”. Your life will continue to amaze you, become surreal because you are generous in heart and the love for God. You were my second IG that I started following and it’s a pleasure/a joy to see your life unfold. Know from the victories to the sad times there are so many of us wishing you well. Keep doing what you love. You have a beautiful family and I thank you for sharing yourself, Mike, Von, Berkley and Vivi. God Bless! Dianne ( Kelso, Wa)
  • From one redhead to another- I truly look forward to your posts and stories each day. I get the crazy life. I was a SAHM for years... got a teaching degree...taught two crazy years and found out I was pregnant. I now have children that are 16,14,12 and 2 months. You bring joy to me and the stress fades a little when I laugh out loud at what you allow us to see. Thank you and may God continue to bless your family this new year.
  • Absolutely love watching you and your beautiful, fun loving family. You are a true inspiration to many. Blessings to you and yours for 2020... keep on making us laugh!
  • Jenn(RR) I “discovered” you from days of U tube and Wine Wednesdays, “I want waaater” video. Your and Mike’s interaction was so easy and funny. I was hooked. I still watch you out on FB and have dipped my toe into IG. You make this Grandma’s day. (PamelaKay) and I post often. I had 3 boys, but if I would have had a girl, I would have been delighted to have one like you!! Keep adventuring, but keep the fam first.
  • Happy New Year's to you and family I'm glad I found you you make laugh and all the stuff you do for us .Thank you so much xo
  • All this is why I follow along - even though my children are grown I just love the honesty and real-ness of you - you make me laugh and I need that in my day. You keep doing you, and I’ll be here to see, read, and laugh. May God continue to bless you and your family. Happy New Year!!
  • You are so wonderful and brave! I love your authenticity and this world needs that. Stop saying you’re not good at this Instagram thing because you are perfect at it, just the way you are! When someone tries to copy someone else’s style it doesn’t work. Being YOU is what works so just be you and we will be here! You inspire to get serious about using this platform to help people with my own daily life, so the mission continues. Your “imperfections” help us newbies be brave! Love you tons. GO BADGERS! GO PACKERS! And...you’re a great mom. 🍀💚 Kelley from Boise 💚🍀
  • Hi Jen! I just discovered you before the announcement of your TV show and I’ve enjoyed every minute of watching you and your family! I love that you are so real and honest. I look forward to seeing what you’re up to every day. You & Mike give me that daily laugh I often need. I look forward to seeing what 2020 has in store for you! Happy New Year! P.S. Your kids are precious!
  • I am a Nana to Barrett Shain 7 yrs old and Gunner James 4 yrs old. I have three grown daughters, Melissa Rene 38 yrs old, Tayler Brynn 26 yrs old and Jenna Lynn 25 yrs old. I love being a mom and a nana. I don’t have any young kids at home but I very much enjoy your posts and especially your stories. You make me laugh, out loud, and it’s something nice to be able to find humor these days in something so honest and pure. Thank you for being you and sharing yourself and family with us!!
  • I love everything about you... rarely buy anything just for the record (sorry) but your Instagram stories and/or posts are fun! The kiddos, Mike, and especially you just crack me up! ♥️♥️♥️ Xoxo
  • God bless you and your sweet little family! Enjoy your little ones. Time goes too fast!!
  • Thank you for all your encouragement and real-ness...our hearts for our home and family are in the same stall...hmmm...I mean likeminded...😍
  • So enjoy your daily posts. Thanks for just being who God has made you, & for sharing your family with us. God bless you all.
  • Your beautiful inside and out, including your family. God bless you all
  • Jenn, I have been following you since YouTube days of Wine Wednesdays and the first creative video you did of “I want waaater”. As a mom of three grown sons, I always think it would have been a delight to have a daughter like you. So I have “ adopted you as my virtual daughter. 😊 it is great to see the inner workings of a successful family. ( I post occasionally as PamelaKay and somehow became a “Top Fan”). Keep putting the family first in all your adventures. ♥️
  • Happy New Year to you and your family. Following you on IG is truly a bright spot in my day. Though we are at completely different phases of our lives (I’m 54 with a 26 and 16 year old) I love your posts for their homes and humor. And of course great tips on all things make up and clothes 😊can’t wait to see what you do in 2020!
  • From one redhead to another... You are such a breath of fresh air!! I loved your farewell letter. Thank you for all that you share and your authenticity!
  • Thank you so much for allowing us to watch & see your family on a daily basis. I seriously can't help but smile & laugh every time I watch. You are simply the best. Happy 2020 to you & your family from Australia.
  • I just have to say that I absolutely love following you on IG. Love your sense of humor, your openness, and most of all, just how down to earth you are. I love seeing you interact with your adorable children, and Mike is hysterical. I've only started following your for the last 6 months or so, and I am thoroughly enjoying your content, and look forward to seeing your daily antics! Thank you for everything, Jenn. Happy and Healthy New Year to you and your family! Hugs, René
  • My daughters love you, my granddaughter loves you and then I began to love you! You are always a bright spot in our day! Thank you for being you and sharing your life with us, all of it! Blessings to you this year and beyond!
  • You are certainly something special and deserve all the goodness that has been brought to you this past year! Thank you for entertaining us constantly and being a bright shining light for us all to enjoy! And for letting us enjoy your awesome kids who are clearly following in your and Mike’s footsteps!
  • Jenn, I started following you because of your gorgeous house but kept following because of your “realness”, hilarious sense of humor and love for Christ. I’m a 56 year old ( who doesn’t give into the age thing😉😜 probably not your typical age group) who is a wife, mom, full time ministry leader with my wonderful husband and lover of all things beautiful in decor and life. I believe you have found a platform that only God could have opened for you and rejoice with you in this opportunity. As I said on Instagram, many blessings to you as you continue to navigate this crazy thing called life. Never lose your sense of humor and ability to look on the bright side. It will serve you well in the years to come. Thank you for being wonderful you and sharing you and yours and what matters to you. ❤️
  • Ditto what they all said above and that you for validating my feelings as a (not so perfect) mother of three myself. I really enJOY taking a peek at your kinda crazy....it’s definitely a mood changer. Thank you and God bless.
  • Jenn, you're Instagram stories are the first ones I look for when I open my app! I love following you, Mike, and your beautiful kids, throughout the day. You're so relatable and I love the filter free zone. It's so nice to know we're not alone in our "crazy mom world"! Keep on keepin' on!! We love you Rambling Red Head!
  • Jenn, I want to thank you for a great 2019! You keep us laughing with your Insta-stories, you keep us updated on great products we should not be buying (according to my husband!), and you show us that messy lives can be beautiful and so much fun! I wish you all the best with your 2020 endeavors! Can't wait for the show!! And my husband would like another "bourbon tasting" with Mike and your dad! :-) Thank you for bringing JOY to your readers and watchers lives! Many Blessings to you and your beautiful family!
  • You've been an amazing "find" this 2019! I'm still newish to Instagram and following influencers, but you have been the BEST so far! Thank you for being so honest! I swear I just want to be your friend lol. Thank you for sharing your family with us. May God bless you all!
  • Hi Jenn, I too am not your common age follower. But at 64 I’m a “full-time” grandma who loves to be with my 7 grandchildren and 3 grown beautiful daughters on a daily basis. I also mentor mamas and invite them to my home for spoiling they need after giving so much to their kiddos. I too believe that God has opened up this door for you and I think you’re doing a great job.
  • Thank you for bringing a giggle to my day every day! Happy new year and all the best to you and your beautiful family in 2020!!
  • Haha! I talk about you and one of my friends wanted to know why she had never met you. 😂😂. Looking forward to the TV show. Happy New Year 🎉🎊🎆🎇😘😘
  • Happy New Year to you and your fam! I truly enjoy checking in on your stories every morning, you are part of my regular routine now that I’m on mat leave :) thank you for being real. I see your messy bathroom over there and feel *relieved*, and choose to give myself some grace. I aspire to be the type of person you are. Full of faith and joy, love for my family and for life, all while rocking a messy bun. Thank You for showing us life is just better being genuine.
  • Hi Jen. What a sweet, heartfelt blog post. I felt your genuine emotion as I read through it. I am glad to see that many who follow you are like me, older with no kids at home😊 I only found you in 2019 and shortly after you announced the exciting news about your upcoming HGTV show...which I cannot wait to see! And your sweet Vivi makes me smile as much as you make me laugh. Know that your joy and light heartedness are a special talent and gift and our world is blessed to have you in it. May God bring you and your family more joy-filled blessings than you can hold in this new year. Lorie
  • Jenn, I have been following you for a while now, I first saw you and you reminded me of my middle Daughter Chelsea with the long Red hair. I decided to stop and listen to your story one day and I was stuck! Your humor and authenticity were refreshing, you are the 1st Influencer that I felt was being true to your word. I have since bought several items you suggested and have been pleased with all of them. I look forward to seeing what is going on with You, Mike and your Adorable kids every day. I love how you put God first and he shines through whatever you are doing. I believe he has blessed you with this platform and as long as you put him 1st he will continue to do so. Just remember if it becomes to much it is okay to take a breather, you are human. I enjoyed your end of year blog post... I pray 2020 brings you blessing upon blessing! 💗 Melissa (Also a Redhead)
  • Jen - please keep on being you. I read some of the comments here from other mothers that find joy in your relatability. I am married, have no kids (and don't plan on getting any - target doesn't stock my size) but I follow you for your humor and the insight on a different life. Your realness is relatable to so many. Your family is adorable, I love it when Mike, the kids, and the other characters in the Jen Todryk show make an appearance - especially an unexpected one - lol. Wishing you and your family all the JOY in 2020. Thanks for being a bright spot in a messy world.
  • Hi Jen! I've not been a die hard follower until recently and absolutely love your posts and Instagram stories. I have jumped in at the deep end and decided that after five years of consideration, I am going to blog.. Because being a working mum with my own business, being a wife and doing housework doesn't take up 27 hours of my time, every single day... I thought screw it..lets see! Thankyou for giving me the unintended kick of the backside and happy new year!
  • Thank you for bringing me joy in 2019. I look forward to your posts every day and you make me smile and laugh out loud even on days I'm feeling stressed to the max! You are so honest and your family is so stinking adorable! I always joke with my SIL whom I shared you with and is now a follower as well...that I wish I lived in Texas so I could be your friend...lol! (I know kinda weird) Anyway...if you are ever near Appleton or Green Bay WI we would love to meet you! Keep on being you!
  • I love you and your adorable family. I love for Viv. I may be grand baby hungry but she is my favorite. You are amazing and real and I love you for it. Please never change! But I feel like your family needs the madness of a dog. Wouldn’t your kiddos love a puppy? Happy new year and keep being amazing!
