Changin a Few Things

Over the last month or so, I have realized some things about our life. The main thing that I noticed is that our kids are our main priority/focus. They have become pretty much the only thing that we have to talk about.


I am sure that most of that comes from the fact that we became parents to four (five including JB) over night. Our kids have also brought with them a lot of "baggage" that only God can take care of...but, I have spent my time trying to figure it out myself.

Amazingly enough, I have let go of lots of those things and we have seen some true change. God has also spoken to me about...well about me and WHERE have I gone. Jason and I bought a new home a year and a half ago and basically have JUST lived here...which is so NOT like us. The house has an awesome yard, but because I have been SO consumed, my hands have only been in the dirt like 3 times in 18 months.

So, I have begun a change. Jason and I have slowly gotten back to doing some things we enjoy. I have done some rearranging and junk shopping and working in our yard. Jason and I redid several of the flower beds in the backyard. We finished one completely this weekend...looks pretty cute if I do say so myself.

I decided that I would post a couple of my recent decor projects.
This is my new favorite spot...it is my new vanity area that Jason created for me and I decorated...LOVE it!
This a pic of my new junkie bird cage that I put candles in...it looks really cool with all of the lights off!
This is not new, but one of my favorite things...this is a collage of my Maw Maw and Pop Pop...Jason and I got married on their wedding anniversary...I LOVE her VERY much!
The last is of my "french" spot in my bedroom.

Also, I have been wanting an inside dog...so after much hunting...God put Dottie right in our family...she is truly so ugly, she is cute and she fits perfectly! I have a couple of pics of her that I will also include.
