{May Has Arrived}

  I sure hope that your May has kicked off to a good start. The heat is settling in quick around our parts.  We've kicked off May with watching our softball girls win the District. Next week we start another round of ball. It's so much fun to watch these girls and especially our girl, Mallory. She plays centerfield.  We were so proud of both teams that played against each other. They all, hand in hand gathered together as one of our girls prayed for the game and also for one of our young men that was in a horrific car accident and fighting. His name is Kaden if you can think to lift him up to our Lord.  I had the opportunity recently to speak to a group of women at a ladies luncheon event at a local church. Oh we had so much fun. I wished I had gotten pictures of the beautiful decorations. We had a TEA PARTY and we each kept the cup that we drank out of it.  Isn't she just lovely? Easter has come and gone but we sure have a great time with family. We gather each...

FRIDAY FAVORITES

It is Friday again! Time to see a few favorites of mine this week. 

I fell in love with this headboard bench! 


Love this party idea. Not only is it edible but cute!


This is such a cute idea for a gift.


This is a great idea for a wedding. I've never liked that "which side would you like to sit mentality".


What a cute idea for a makeover! The grands would love!


Do you need a gift idea for the friend that loves shoes? Got a pair of shoes you want to get rid of? Well now you know what to do with them! I have the perfect SHOE friend for this idea!


We gotta have a tablescape to drool over today!


Plastic Cups with cupcake liners!

    Hey Sweetie! I've enjoyed reading your sweet comments so much this week. They've eased up some painful days and brighten up some just plain ole' boring days. I'm just ashamed that it took me so long to come by and say thank you.

    Congratulations on your new job!! I'm so happy for you. God is so good!

    I love your bright cheery blog look. It makes me smile as soon as I get here. Love that headboard bench too. I'm in love with everything aqua/turquoise, these days. And how perfect is the wedding guest message - Love the thought behind it as well as the look. And God's 3 answers to your prayers, is going in my quote book. Maybe even some sort of DIY wall art. I could use that reminder on a regular basis.

    Love ♥ you so much for the visits! XO's...Tracy @ Cotton Pickin Cute

    Oh my is it Friday already. I always enjoy your favorites, because they are some of mine too.
    The swing has to be my favorite and the last one really spoke to me about how God answers prayer. It is so true.
    Thanks for stopping by my blog too.
    Have a blessed weekend, Cindy.

Hiding the Ugly Hot Water Heater

 I shared that I wanted to hide my ugly hot water heater in my laundry room with you a few weeks ago. It just stuck out like a sore thumb. But after all it is a hot water heater right? So my man took a piece of wood (not real wood) but it worked and built a frame for me. So now to see if it would fit and it did. I painted it white and did not like the texture it had even after two coats of white. (rule of thumb...you get what you pay for and the wood was cheap) But I wasn't going to let it whip me!  Found some contact paper at Walmart in the gray and white. Covered the front with the contact paper and loved the look. The top was covered with a piece of painted wood as well and worked perfect to place this on top... And this.... Added a clothes basket in the corner and here was the top.... Yep, no longer an eye sore to me! Went perfect with my gray walls and gray and white floor. Remember the wood tray I bought at a...

{March Is Underway}

  Welcome to March! The little grands and I kicked off March with a sleepover at Nana's house. They are so much fun and so energetic. COFFEE has earned my love forever for sure! LOL!  We started out with a sack lunch from Burger King (their favorite) and headed to a cute little park that is only about 2 miles from where I live. The girls has so much fun. The girls put in for Nana to ride the horsey. Well, y'all know I had to show those littles that Nana still can do that!!! Two of the girls wanted to play with the old Halloween wigs but the youngest one opted out. She said it made her head itch. LOL!  We had a tea party for breakfast. Our tea party consisted of smoked sausage, peaches and chocolate chip cookies. Yummy to my tummy the youngest one said! I finally got around to making myself a healthy fruity Icee. I made the girls snow cones out of the same healthy fruits. Guess I needed too so they wouldn't be so hyped up from all the cookies when returning home. Hee-hee!...

{SON-Flowers}

Don't you just love sunflowers? When I think about sunflowers I think of two things. My motherinlove who loved sunflowers and Fall. I came across a devotional written by Julia Bettencourt on sunflowers and thought it so appropriate for today as I wanted to share my sunflowers with you. Here's a few lessons we can learn from the sunflower.    Sunflowers Track The Sun.   Most plants are attracted to light but the flowering head of the sunflower actually tracks the sun following it's path and moving toward where it is in the sky all during the day. I read somewhere that sunflowers track the sun when they are in bud stage. Isn't that how it usually goes for us as Christians? When we first come to know the Lord, we get excited about knowing all about Him and living for Him, but after awhile we sometimes grow a little preoccupied with other things and get our eyes off of the Lord.   Wouldn't it be great if as a Christian we'd track th...
