About Me

Why a simple kind of life? Well, thats what my husband and I are trying to instill in our family. We are Christians and living a simple life is what God wants for us. I say trying because that is what we are doing. We need to keep that in the forefront of our minds as we go through all the crazy yet unforgettable days a family of four goes through. Life is very busy with a smart and inquisitive four yearold, active, curious, funny 2 1/2 year old and a new baby. As teachers, we enjoy our summers off with our children spending time at the beach, boating or just in our backyard relaxing. We know what and Who is important in this life, but we also can admit that we do enjoy things that don’t really matter like reality TV, good food and my weakness, shopping. All in all its all about balance and keeping God first.

My favorite room.

Ahhh....my beautiful table from Ballard's Design.  My very first piece of nice furniture.  I just love it.  Before I had a round pedestal table (that I still love)  with small chairs that were not comfy at all.  Very cute set up but not inviting.  The table was in the center of the room with the chairs around it.  My vision of the dining table off to the side with a bench and chairs actually looks perfect.  We swagged the light fixture and now it feels bigger, comfy and inviting.  We love to eat dinner here.  My daughter says "Its just beautiful mommy.  Thank you for doing this."  She's my biggest fan!

Art for the wall is coming.......Ill post about it when I am finished!

The bench is custom made from an old bed.  Cool huh?

I always wanted to paint my dining chairs a funky color and I love turquoise.  I am so happy I did it! I thought even if I didn't like it, its only paint right?
