Homemakers Journal

What’s happening in my home?….



In my kitchen
Haven't cooked much this week. but will pick up for the rest of the week, now that I'm back in town.

With our marriage
Have been having some "real" talks about our future as a family and a new direction that Christ is leading us. Had a really great short vacay just us alone!!

With the children
just keeping up good grades and helping out more with chores.

Around the homestead… 
Back to decorating my home, having a lot of fun.

In my “Inner Man”…
still reading the bible in 90 days program. doing some personal bible study as well on my role in God's walk.

DIY hurricane glass


I was inspired over at 320 Sycamore to try her hurricane glasses. So, I took a trip over to my fav store dollar tree. (I'm addicted) and I got these for a dollar each $4 total...

I used glue and let set overnight...
 

here they are, but not finished yet...

  

add buttons and twine...



and there you have it...



this is where it will actually be in my home...



Did I mention before how much I "LOVE" dollar tree (smile)

Perfectly Ordinary Days!

I saw this video and it really makes you stop, texting, blogging and push away from the laptop to take a look at what you're really missing out on. She states so beautifully that it's not the moments that are big you should cherish, but the perfectly ordinary seemingly non important days in your children's lives that matter as well.
This video really made me think, and I hope you'll take some time to watch it. I'm off to just sit and play dolls with my littlest ones, and maybe play a game of checkers with my older ones.
