Dining Room Decisions...

I have a table like the one pictured above from Rachel Ashwell's collection, and am loving the look of crystal with distressed wood. I'm thinking of a chandelier like the one above mixed with our rustic table....hmmm, now decision time...your thoughts?

Here Kitty, Kitty...

As you may all know, my husband is a service tech at a power sports store. So...when someone doesn't want to pay to fix their kids' snowmobile, my husband picks it up for $50 and puts a new key in it. She's Teagan's new ride, and too cute for even mommy to handle! I think she'll be seeing a new pink paintjob in the future, too...

Mommy, "ance with me"

While daddy bought Teagan her first snowmobile this last week, I watched her cry as I rode with her, but squeal in delight when riding with daddy. I also watched her twirl around on her toes and heard grandpa saying.."you're going to be a dancer"... I would have to agree. Even though she makes the motor sounds that drive mommy crazy and brings a smile to daddy's face, she still twirls around on those toes and asks mommy to "ance" with her.

After reading a blog I follow from Erin over at Rare and Beautiful Treasures, I would have to agree with her prayer and pray this for my daughter...
So while my spare energy is poured into prayer, into my bible and into my daughter; I want to talk to her and talk to the Lord in equal measure, that I would always have the heart of a mother. That she might smell the scent of the holy spirit-breathe JOY-and feel at home, from God's arms unto mine.


"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, JOY, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness . . ."
Galations 5:22
