We Reached our Goal!
We did it! The first phase of the deck is done.
I didn’t think we could finish with James gone and so much happening this week. But the kids and I got out there and knocked it out.
A Little More About Us
I’m hooking up to a link party about large familes over at Life in a Shoe.
We live in the Texas Hill Country in an 85+ year old farmhouse that we have slowly redone.
The Luncheon
I took a few days off of the deck project to come into the air-conditioning and cool off.
I had planned a luncheon for the officer moms in our homeschool group.
Little Joys
The other evening, my six-year-old brother Elijah was excitedly telling me how he loved making bookmarks. Since I had just been looking for one, I had an idea.
Garage Sale Score
I don’t usually do garage sales. I rarely find them to be worth my time. But a sweet friend of mine was having one this past Saturday, so I decided to pop by and say hello.
Counting My Blessings
The Lord is so good to cheer me up when I am feeling low.
So I prayed. God reminded me to count my blessings.
A Little Bit of Uninteresting Information
I thought I’d join in the Blog Hop over at Pensive. It’s for some of us sad, sad bloggers that didn’t go to BlogHer ’10.
Building the Deck
Why, oh why, did I ask to build a deck around the pool this week?
Besides James being exhausted from his finals and me being exhausted from dealing with my dad’s hospitalization…..it’s HOT!!!!
Before & After Winner!
We are this week’s winner in the Before & After contest. I’m so excited!
After a hard week with my dad, this was such a boost. Thank you to the One Project Closer
Some Great Decorating Blogs
Since I’m still traveling, I thought I’d share with you some of my favorite blogs. I always look forward to seeing what these gals are up to….
