Change

Today, As i sit and explore the world wide web, I want to change things in my home. Make it mine. I love the vintage shabby style and want to incorporate that into my home. I have gotten some really good inspirations from photos' of others. Now to get to work and enjoy making a change; that will maybe change how I feel inside about my home. I want my home to be a welcoming home for others to come in and feel welcome and not wanting to leave. Lord help me today to make my home welcoming. In Jesus Name A MEN...

My week.

This week has been soooo CRAZYYYY!! First of all, I didn't make my menu for the week and that throws me all out of sorts. It is plum crazy how somthing so simple can make a week stressful. I knew better. I know to take the time and do this.. but anywho...

We, my husband and I and another couple suppose to be riding to the mountains on the Harley next weekend. If it rains I don't want to go. Stevie said we could go anywho, I just don't think so. I don't like getting wet. I really don't even like swimming. so... we will see.

Stevie's birthday is Sunday, I think I'm going to have him a surprise gift for a change... I hope he will anyways..

Lord, help us through the day, help me to get all my work done in Jesus name AMEN.

Resting in His mercy.

I often wonder if I am the only one that feels like I do. Wanting a change, but not knowing what it is. Whether it is with my job or whatever it may be. Mostlly I think on my job situation. I use to stress on that. But now I kind of letting it rest in His hands. He knows whats best for me. Idon't know. And until I hear His voice so clearly without a shadow or doubt and feeling the peace; I'm not moving. So for now I will rest in His mercy.

On another note, I love to take pictures.. It is a passsion of mine. Sometimes I get discouraged. But I do love it. I'm always browsing flea markets and junk shops for props and small hats, etc. for children.

Lord, I lift you up today. And thank you for loving me unconditionally. For allowing me rest in you. Thank you for your mercy upon me. I fail or get my mind on things that I say I'm putting in your hands, but now Lord, I give you my life. do with it as you wish. Help me to stay totally focus on you today and always. In Jesus Name I pray. AMEN

Meet Madison

Welcome Madison in the world.. She is so tiny and beautiful. A precious gift from God. She came to visit and I had to snap a few pictures..

Welcome Madison into the world. She is only 4 hours old here. To precious...

I can't wait to be able to take some pictures of her.

Just yesturday, I was beating myself up about letting my hobbies take control of my life. And yes, God did speak through all the torture I was putting myself through. I read my daily devotion which is on the Proverbs 31 website. Which I feel was speaking directly at me. Thank you God for letting me know to pick myself up and keep on going. Learn from your mistakes and go on.

I had a wonderful opurtinity to take senior pictures with a beautiful young lady. Kayla Diane Wilson. She is very photogentic.

Dayton Byrd a precious little one that my daughter keeps sometimes. He is so sweet and play around with him.

What is REALLY important to me??!

Yesturday, I made two more pillowcase dresses. While I was making them my best friend called with bad news; her mom was in the hosptial in CCU waiting to be shipped to St. Vinceint ( a Heart Speciality Hospital). Yes, I took the time to talk with her, but the whole time I was wanting to get off the phone and finish the dress I was currently working on. Then another close friend called, that is pregnut and having a lot of complications and she had to go back to the doctor and she started sharing what was going on. And again I talked to her and listened and still was thinking about the dress I was working on, and trying to shake myself to get my mind on the hurting person on the other end. I finished the dresses, but God got a hold of me. What I needed to be doing is listening and praying RIGHT THEN praying for what was going on with them not what I am doing. I had to realize what was really important to me.

When I get my mind of something, I am full force, can't think of nothing else. And want to put everything I've got into it. Then there is nothing left for anyone else.

Lord, Help ME!!! I need you today. I love you...

I have discovered a new passion a few months ago. PILLOWCASE DRESSES.... I love them. I love making them. I love to put different fabric together and get so excited to see how they turn out. I only wished I new about them when my girls were small. Now I dream of having a little botique for my dresses. I do have an esty shop, some of my dresses are featured there. I am currently trying to make it look more presentable. A work in progress. I would love, love, love, loove to go to craft shows with ALOOOOTTT of my dresses to sell. But for now I will continue to make dresses for local people and hopeful new people from my etsy shop. I do thank the Lord for giving me this talent and passion.
