God is sooooo Good

I prayed this morning that as God spoke to me through this home thing and new baby thing, He would speak to Dan in His time and in His way and to help me stay out of the way. So wouldn't you know that as Dan and I talked this afternoon, God was fast at work in Dan in his prayer time this morning as well. God is so so cool. :) Dan poured his heart out to me and it is a clear reflection of my own. I could have danced for joy as David did knowing God was once again hard at work conquering the very sin that tries to take us down. Saaaweet! Oh yeah, and amen. :)

The houses we saw today were so much more promising than the ones previously viewed. Very encouraging. The favorite one was actually right across the street from people we know so I could hop right across the street with a couple cups of vanilla chai lattes and have us a good ole time.

Well I do have to mention this house. We looked at one house...seriously people I'm not kidding you, their garage turned office smelled like an ancient half dead shitzu (sp?) lived there. It was like the smell of a nasty dirty lap dog that was already halfway through the rigomortus. Dramatic you say? You should have smelled that place. I almost tossed my biscuits...umh if I had eaten biscuits...which I haven't, well you get the point. The rest of the house was great. Really beautiful (accept their underwear laying around and bra drawer wide open, I went ahead and closed that drawer...you know 'cause I'm nice like that.)

There were others but I don't think I can top that last one in funny. Well, accept the one that Dan said smelled like an old man. I think I'm having more fun blogging about these houses than I am looking for a house to live in. :)

Tomorrow will be an all day adventure. Sarah has been asking to blog again so I promised the next post is hers so she will tell you how tomorrow goes. She just loves you all to pieces. I mentioned you all and she did that cute smile and wiggle thing she is so good at. Melted my heart and then I thought it would melt your heart to so I went ahead and let my heart melt again for you...you know 'cause I'm nice like that. ;) Dan pointed out to me just now that I wrote that twice. I knew that. I was humbled this morning but apparently I've regained my big head.

I'm glad God spoke to you guys, and that you listened. :) I can't wait to hear what Sarah has to say. She's so cute. :)

My second greatest creation!

I did it, I really did it. I've never done something to at this scale of work. It took me many hours but I did it. I am so proud of this DIY project. My first DIY Day! I would be remiss in mentioning that this little beauty is my best DIY and that handsome man there, well, he just melts my heart and fortifies it all at the same time. Here is the plain old dirty six paned window I have been hauling with me every where since I found it a few years ago at a Habitat for Humanity Restore. I had it done up before but that was a novice's attempt at crafty. I knew when I saw the other crafty DIY projects floating around the blogosphere that I would need to get serious in order to play with the big dogs. Good thing all you blogger peeps were also my inspiration. ;) With out further adue . Did I spell that right. I need to learn French. Not really. I'm so doing this on purpose. Ok , here it is..... Three French Memo Boards, one cork board, one pane for a grocery list and ...

DIY Day a bracelet and another Frenchh Memo Board

Image
This week, I have two DIY projects. This is a faux pearl bracelet I made last week for a friend. It is a three strand bracelet. I couldn't really say how I did it though. I can say it has taken me a while to get the nack of jewelery making. One thing I have sufficiently gotten the nack of is this French Memo Baord thing. Here is a magnetic one I made for my fridgerator out of left over scraps from the window from last week . For the month of September, all my DIYs will be giveways. Atleast one will be...well, a guest DIY and a giveway by my SIL over at Read Be Tween the Lines. My sister, Candy and Ladybugs has a picture in her side bar of her latest crosstiching (did I spell that right? My spell check didn't catch it but I don't think thats how it is spelled) project. Its pretty sweet. Check their blogs out on my side bar of my favorite blogs. I've found so many new favorite blogs, I need to update that list. Add that to my to do list. :) Update: Happy To Design...

A New Side Table Arrangement and Jewelery Give Away

Image
I did not think through planning blog posts on certain days when I had a Beach Trip planned. Shortly before we arrived at our rented beach house for the Labor Day Weekend, the owners cut off the Internet service. Bummer. Yes, I could have gone to the Dunkin' Doughnuts and gotten free Wi - Fi but that would have meant being pulled away from this cutie. Miss Wiggles does not like the bright sun (she is a fair skinned red head so I suppose its only natural) so she loved loved loved her sunglasses. Never once did she try to pull them off or attempted to touch them. I think 'cause she sees me where mine, she just knew. In the DIY blogging world, there have been so many neat table arrangements, and arranging every where else from bed sides, dressers , mantles, windows, etc. that I felt I should try my novice hand at artfully arranging my side table to the cozy leather chair in my library (aka, home office). So hear it is. I had this silver platter fit for a Thanksgiving Tur...
