A Valentines Day to Remember!

Tonight my girl sat down, asked a few questions and then I was able to pray with her and lead her in a prayer of salvation!
I could not have asked for a better Valentines Day gift!

Today I will remember for the rest of my life!

The Little Joys

My girl's face is a mix of, I'm adorable, and, I love my hair, and, really mom - another photo?
 While my son struck a I'm a surfer pose.
Gotta love them!

Now I have been busy cleaning and working on my Home Made project - in the meantime, however, I have also been helping the kids with Valentines Day things and throwing together new recipes.

For a snack I made Home Made Popcorn

For dinner I made Provolone Potato Soup - Yummy!

Home Made

For all those that follow this blog or my food blog - you know that over the last 8 months I have begun the road to waking up. Walking out of depression and into who I was before.
Now that I am more alert, awake, my house is relatively clean, I finally have time to start up something I have ALWAYS wanted to do.
Start making my own products at home. Everything from Laundry Soap to Ant Killer. I have done several small things already like my Home Made Bug Spray.

New Pretties, Food & Life

I have a few new wall decors that I added around my home. The upper large is over my dinning table. The tree squares next to it are on my bathroom wall. The lower large photos is above the kitchen table.
I have a lot of wall space that is blank.
The problem is I can not add thick art work or pictures due to doors, tables, people, bathroom steam and positions.
These are the perfect solution to walls that need something different then "regular" art.

Tea Patio Dreams

We all have hopes and dreams.
My simple dream for the longest time, was to have a home.
A home with a fenced yard, with space for a garden and a play area for the kids.
God rewarded our waiting with more than we had hoped for.

The Ugliest Bathroom Ever

My downstairs bathroom!

Yes its bright blue

Yes it has bright red pipes

Yes those are flames on the walls

And the shower does look like a old prison shower!

Not only that but they had raised the toilet! 

Raising it off the floor by an inch!

 

The white pedestal sink rocks!

NO

Not is SO cool!

More as in physical shaking.

You might be wondering why I bought a home with the ugliest bathroom ever to be seen...

well at the time 

(almost a year in a half since then)

we thought we would tackle it first thing.

Instead we took on other projects and locked the door on it (literally)

Now this week my hubby is off and we are ripping everything out

in preparation of painting, re-flooring and then best of all

new toilet and sink!

I can not wait for it to be finished!

I will post before and after photos and I promise you

it will not longer be dark blue & red!
