Roses {This or That Thursday}

Evidently, I’m not very observant because I didn’t notice these beautiful roses growing on the side of my house until a few days ago. It makes me wonder how many other things go unnoticed in my home… Guess I should go figure out where I left the kids. I’m linking up with Deb of deb duty…

He is Our Guide Until the End {Word Filled Wednesday}

Today my church family is celebrating the Home Going of our pastor’s father. While we’re sad to lose his presence, we rejoice in the knowledge that his sleep is but for a short while, because when the trumpet sounds, he will be joined with our Heavenly Father {1 Corinthians 15:52}. I’m linking up with: Internet…

Kreative Blogger Award

Guess who has two thumbs, a camera, her own little space on the web and has been awarded the Kreative Blogger Award? That’s right, this girl right here. Can I tell you how excited I am about this? Well, I’m very… I was given the award by Natasha at Houseful of Nicholes. If you haven’t…

Getting to Know Missouri {This or That Thursday}

A couple of days ago I spent some time down at the Mississippi Riverfront, in the Historic District. While there, I took a few pictures of some of the buildings that are undergoing rehabilitation. They’re turning them into lofts {if it weren’t for the kids, I would beg the hubs to move into one}. I…

When I Think of the Goodness of Jesus {Word Filled Wednesday}

When we moved to Missouri, I tried not to think about all the things that I’d be giving up {a career that I loved, people I enjoyed working with on a daily basis, etc.} and focus on the things that I’d be gaining  {living closer to my family, a promotion for the hubs, etc.} but…

April Photo~A~Day {This or That Thursday}

I didn’t get a chance to get out much this week to take any pictures, between doctor’s appointments, household chores and a massive headache, picture~taking was low on the list of priorities. But I did manage to squeeze in a few shots for the April Photo~A~Day Challenge. So much fun… 1. Your Reflection I edited this…

Getting to Know Missouri {This or That Thursday}

How’s everyone doing? I’m OK, haven’t had much of an opportunity to get out and shoot anything so I’m sharing a few more pictures from last week’s trip to the Bollinger Mill Historic site… One of the main attractions at the Bollinger Mill Historic Site is the Burfordville Covered Bridge, the oldest covered bridge in…

Bollinger Mill Historic Site {This or That Thursday}

I drove out to the Bollinger Mill Historic Site last week and had a fun time roaming around and taking pictures of everything. The sun was shining, the birds were chirping, it was just one of those days that begged to captured and remembered. I love old abandoned homes, there’s something mysterious about them. I…

He Will Direct Your Path {Word Filled Wednesday}

Miss 18 made it home safely from New York late Sunday evening. Praise God. Y’all have no idea how much I was stressing over this trip… A few weeks ago, Miss 18 called to ask if I could bring her home for Spring Break and I agreed. My head was immediately filled with all of…

March Photo~A~Day {This or That Thursday}

Longest week. Ever. My kid is still away from the nest so I’m on pins and needles until she returns. You know how it is when it’s your kids first time away from home… And if you don’t know, trust me, it’ll happen. Thankfully, I have the antics of my other kids to keep me…
