My Handsome Son

My son got his letter jacket...we are very proud of him. I can't believe he is ALMOST a senior. His name means "gift from God" and that is exactly what he is!

In my Yard...

Time to clip back the roses, so I did that this evening and have many battle wounds to show for it! I thought this rose was a Beautiful reminder

of how AWESOME our Maker is!

Can you believe someone put this cute wheelbarrel at the road for the trash man? Well one man's trash is this woman's treasure! I like to put seasonal color in it, so I got some petunias this weekend and planted them.

Salty Wreath

My momma made this for my house...I just LOVE it!

She collected old salt shakers and then wrote one of my

favorite verses and put it on this wreath for me!

One of my favorite things!

Hobbitt Inspiration

I did some sprucing up on my porch...my good friend Cole gave me

some Hobbitt inspiration...

so it got me a movin...

Spring is just around the Corner

Here are some of my first spring surprises...

More Around the House

My new sign and my motto for now...those are my yummy grapefruits from my yard.

Love this spot...right underneath all of that stuff is where

I sit and blog on my red couch.

My new coffee station inspired by the Farm Chicks...

I need a little more color, but wanted to post anyway.

Thank you God!

God is GOOD! We found out today that we are going to be able to adopt our last 3 kids...their parents' rights were terminated today!

I was able to go and tell Lisa and Vincent in person as soon as I knew...they were very excited...they have been waiting a long time for a forever family.

Anyway, when we got in the car this afternoon, Lisa handed me this precious heart made out of a pipe cleaner and this letter telling the judge "thang you"...then she put all of their new initials on the paper, with their soon to be last name.
