Things to think about!

A picture of our bedroom. I'll have to post a new one with the red in it!!

I said before about wanting to learn new things and how to be more efficient, so I kind of started today! I was looking through old fabric and found old red pillow cases that I made before. I think I'm going to be THRIFTY and reuse them in my bedroom. My bedroom is a pretty blue color and has cream too but I wanted to add a little more color. So my hubby and I decided to use red as an accent color. So the pillows should work out perfectly! I'm still trying to turn this little house into a more comfy home. Fill it with things about us that make us and everyone who enters feel at home. I love my family and my hubby for providing us with the home! I love the Lord and all the talents He has given to my hubby so he is able to provide for us!

Have a great day and I hope it's not as humid for you as it is here in PA!!! Blah!!

I want to learn!!!

I want to learn to be the best wife, mother and daughter of God!! I want to learn to be thrifty; i want to learn to be a better cook; i want to learn to be a better house cleaner; i want to learn to cook from scratch. I just want to be the woman that the Lord intended me to be!! I will post my progress and track my journey as I go along. This blog is fun for me because I can go back through and see how things have changed or not!!!! It's like my own journal that everyone can read! It keeps me on point though!!!

Thank you for reading and have a great day!

Ho hum hot day!

Well, I did something Saturday that I haven't done in a while! I went swimming at a PUBLIC pool and got a killer sunburn!!! I'm still feeling it today!!! Everytime I go outside, the sun feels like it's burning a hole through my shirt! My poor boys looked at me like I was CRAZY!! Anyways, I'm getting wicked excited for my days of teaching at home with my kiddos! I know it's not for everyone and that's OK! I'm just getting myself to the point where I am confident in our decision and that's that!!!

I got a new calling working with the kiddos in Primary!! I was scared silly at first, but I think that it will help prepare me for my at home teaching duties! It's a blessing in disguise!!

Thank you to anyone who may stumble upon this and read! I tend to ramble and say nonsense things but that's me!!! Have a beautiful day!!!

Trying things out!!!

Today I decided to bust out some of my lapbooks that I made for the boys and see how they worked! It was AMAZING and so much fun! M did some older kids stuff and little A did some matching! It was fun and they liked it! I made a calendar and we had calendar time. Sang the days of the weeks song that M likes singing to and little A likes to clap! It was fun! I was a little skeptical about how it would fly but I loved it and so did they!!!

Let your light shine!

Read an amazing post from Katy, over at www.countryblossom.blogspot.com , about letting your light shine. To be a man or woman of Christ is a big deal. It's not something you hide away or keep under cover to fit it. It's a light that should be shone all day long. It's not something that you try to get attention for. It's an amazing blessing to know of God and His Son Jesus Christ! So today and everyday let your light shine! Be a confident man or woman of the Lord! You will be blessed for it!

Hope you had a beautiful day like we did here in Western PA!!
