Prayers and a blessing for YOU!

I would like to ask for you to pray for my sweet Mom.

Saturday morning, she fell and has badly broken her wrist. Both of her forearm bones were completely disjointed from her hand. She was in so much pain. My Dad took her to the ER, where they splinted it and she will be having surgery this week. She is not good at sitting, because if you know her, she thrives on constantly serving others with such a genuine heart, going, calling, giving of her time, energy and talents. But most of all, she enjoys working with her hands...Please pray for QUICK RECOVERY. She is so special. If you don't already, you should read her lovely blog. You will be blessed.

THANK YOU, it means so much

Turquoise!

Turquoise is my absolute favorite color!

So I decided to share some pretty photos with you today...

as inspiration for the piece of furniture I'm attempting to paint this color.

So maybe I'll just find this couch, and never get off of it! So cute!

Look at all the natural hughes of turquoise handmade by God!! Absolutely inspiring.

When Kara and her husband Phil got married,

she let her bridesmaids pick out the color dress they wanted.

She saved the turquoise one for me : )

Posting this for the sweet little song, not the video : ) although the video is pretty sweet too!

3 1/2!!!

Baby mine, don't you cry
Baby mine, Dry your eyes
Rest your head close to my heart
Never to part, baby of mine

Little one, when you play
Don't you mind what they say
Let those eyes sparkle and shine
Never a tear, baby of mine

If they knew sweet little you
They'd end up loving you too
All those same people who scold you
What they'd give just for the
right to hold you

From your head down to your toes
You're not much, goodness knows
But you're so precious to me
Sweet as can be, baby of mine

All of those people who scold you
What they'd give just for the
right to hold you

From your head down to your toes
You're not much, goodness knows
But you're so precious to me
Sweet as can be, baby of mine
Baby of mine

Remember....

EACH DAY IS A GIFT!!!

ballet and soccer!

sorry iphone pics for now..better ones to follow. isabel truly loves ballet.  i see other little ones go in kicking and screaming, complaining, etc. She asks every day if it's ballet day. I chose the classical ballet through Mobile Ballet, b/c it's not all about the costumes and princess stuff {which we love, but think it can be too much for little ones this age}, they truly teach technique and the simple training of ballet. no tap either. no recital at the end of the year, but when they turn 7, they can be a part of the Nutcracker.  For now, we're a sweet ballerina!  

Stay tuned for pictures of my soccer player!

Fridaaaay!

It's FRIDAAY!!!

You made it  : )

Notice the purple highlights in Lukey's hair?  Enjoyed painting at preschool today!

she's totally come out of her shell!!  

I SO want a scalloped pie dish! Just love anything with scalloped edges.  Do you know i dont even own
a pie dish???  I used to have a clear glass one, but not sure what happened to it!
Improvisation:  A key element to happiness in life!!

Here you go:
Improvisation is the practice of acting, singing, talking and reacting, of making and creating, in the moment and in response to the stimulus of one's immediate environment and inner feelings. This can result in the invention of new thought patterns, new practices, new structures or symbols, and/or new ways to act. This invention cycle occurs most effectively when the practitioner has a thorough intuitive and technicalunderstanding of the necessary skills and concerns within the improvised domain. Improvisation can be thought of as an "on the spot" or "off the cuff" spontaneous activity.  {Love it!}
