A Week Of Funky Fun Outfits


Monday:


Wow! That is about how I would sum up the last week. Hi everyone, sorry for not posting last week but I have been really busy. Last Saturday, our friends that run the ministry we are working with (It helps pregnant women in incarcerated and homeless families/families with children that are going through a hard time. The ministry provides a safe home for a family in the church for the babies/children until their parents can take them back) called with an emergency placement for a 2-year-old little boy living with us plus we are taking in a newborn baby soon. So as of last Saturday, there has been a little boy in the house. Two is a magical age but it is also an age that keeps everyone else on there toes.

He loves fire trucks and to go for walks, oh and the dogs and chickens! He follows all around and helps us with everything from laundry to dishes to doing windows (I'm glad he likes that job because I don't). It has been really fun and he is so sweet you can't help but fall in love with his little face. Sunday after church we are taking him to visit his mom and dad. Please keep us all in your prayers.

It's harder to find time to blog between school and loving on the little one and chores but I am trying. I think I may have to take it back to one outfit a week we will have to see. We finally got family photos done! Yay! I have wanted to do them since September. They came out really well, and it was a lot of fun. Though trying to get everyone looking at the camera, in their spots and not to have little fingers in mouths was harder than I thought it would be.

A Week Of Great Fashion Looks For Chilly Weather


Monday:

Hey there! Welcome back! This week we are preparing for Thanksgiving, but I guess most of we Americans are. We have put up most of the Christmas trees the rest we will wait until after Thanksgiving. The front porch now is aglow with soft Christmas lights. Imitation candles rest in every window and Christmas music plays all day long.

Brown / Burgundy Skirt: A Gift

Tuesday:


In my family, we always have at least one tree up by Thanksgiving (sometimes more). My Grandma use to do all the decorating when I was little but now that I am older and it's not so easy for her to dart up and down ladders I have taken it over (under her careful supervision of course). This year I am using grapevine garland instead of the green stuff or whatever you call it to keep the colors as light as possible. 

Jean Skirt: Vintage Store
Blue/Purple Shirt: Vintage Store

Wednesday:

 My dad's nature tree we plan on decorating tonight when he gets home from work. It is a little over 8 feet tall so if I look short in these photos that's why. It is always fun decorating the tree as a family especially when we get the real one. I love the smell of fresh Christmas trees! It always makes me happy!

It is pretty cold here, actually, it snowed today. The dogs had fun chasing us in it. My mom tried to get some shots but most came out blurry :( oh well guess we are just too fast. Still fun, though.  It has not snowed here in the last few years.  They say it will just be a dusting today but I will enjoy it while I can.   Do you get snow where you live?

Fresh flowers just make things look more beautiful.  We are always looking out for a good sale on flowers to brighten up the day.  It is my dad's tradition to pick mom up a pretty bouquet every week when he can.  Nothing makes momma smile like pretty flowers.  It just makes her week.

Time to go and get eggs for the day and I am bundled up for sure. It sure has gotten chilly here fast.  I miss the warm weather but I do love the colors of the fall.  I hurry up today as the wind is especially cold.  Brrrrrrr...

Sunday:



Nothing like a warm and cozy house with a fire in the hearth and a good book to read.  I love this spot for my devotions.  The gentle morning light coming through the window and the beauty of the Christmas Tree.  It sits right by the fireplace too so it is warm.

 If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate. If I speak God’s Word with power, revealing all his mysteries and making everything plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a mountain, “Jump,” and it jumps, but I don’t love, I’m nothing. If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don’t love, I’ve gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I’m bankrupt without love. 

1 Corinthians 13:1-7 MSG
