Around our House

Since I can't seem to get my thoughts to quiet enough to write about the past few months I will show you what is happening right now at my house.

Remember these?

Well, actually you don't remember them framed because I just picked them up from Hobby Lobby yesterday. They are the pictures my talented artist husband drew of our three wonderful children. He's good, huh? I certainly think so.

Well, when you walk in our front door now you are greeted by this arrangement.

I know the table scape needs some help but I am so pleased with the way it's turning out. I have been looking for something to go in that spot since we moved in almost 3 years ago. I finally found the little table at Hobby Lobby (I LOVE that place!!). And, I just am so excited to be greeted by my three kiddos every time I enter the house.

And that basket, you ask????
Another of my souvenirs from Uganda. It's a handmade raffia basket. Isn't it beautiful!!

I have been spending a lot of time in the sewing room. I have opened an "etsy" shop hoping to make a little cash to help out our 3 "starving college students". OUCH!!! It is pretty skimpy on items right now but I have several things in the works that are about ready to be added. I'm also hoping to include some items that are a combination of hubby's artwork and my sewing. We'll see how that works out. As I've said before on this blog, I'm also hoping to improve my camera skills so that my pictures will be more appealing.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Breakfast of Champions???

I had Twizzlers for breakfast. I. Know!! You haven't heard from me in months. 136 days, to be exact, and that's all I have to say??

Well.....no. The problem is there has been too much to say. I have been completely overwhelmed by all I could say.

These past months have been so full of life. And, as we all know, that also includes heartache and death. I hope to share with you (on a much more regular basis) all I have been through these past "quiet" days of blogging.

Thanks for sticking with me.
