embrace the camera.


Last night, Grace and I settled down and watched American Idol.


After about one song, the boys left the room and went to watch basketball in the bedroom.
Oh, well...their loss!


So...who's your favorite?

Do you like to dance with Naima,
like Grace?


Or, sing along with Casey, like me?


Leave a comment telling who your favorite is!

put a little SPRING in your step


Even though it doesn't feel like spring outside, I thought I would try to bring a little spring inside!

I hung a wreath that I made last spring when we were a family of three.


On the mantle, I added a bird, chicken wire (yum!), jars with flowers, candles, a cross, and a nest with eggs.




I think this is my favorite vignette!


Or maybe, the sweet nest with 2 little eggs that I put on my desk is my favorite! 


I filled a basket with spring and Easter books.


In the kitchen, I added another nest full of eggs and a footprint butterfly canvas (that I made when Grace was a baby), an egg crate, and a couple of jars of herbs.




Love the dollar spot at Target!


...and just because I can!


Now, it's your turn.  Go and put a little SPRING in your step!!!

teach
feed kids
bathe kids
play with kids
&
water the plants


UH-OH!!!

Hello, Spring!



Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, 
he is a new creation; 
old things have passed away; 
behold, all things have become new.
2 Corinthians 5:17
