we're moving
It is official.
Moving boxes are coming home with us tonight.
I will cry like Bella when Edward left.
There will be a wrecking ball sized hole in my heart.
I am leaving my little humble house.
I must pack away my sweet nesting dolls
& tiny trinkets.
Where they will live in a storage shed never to see the light of day.
I must tuck away my fears and wear courage like a badge of honor.
I may cry and I may fuss.
But I know this move is for the best.
And that He approves.
Our lives will be made richer & our gratitude will be broadened.
So please send all of your prayers & good vibes this way.
I need patience and mercy to be my strong suits from here on out.
We will be moving in with my parents until we have paid off our debts and saved enough money to buy our own house. I've really struggled with this these past few weeks. I didn't know whether I should share all this information with you. But it will affect my blogging and journaling. I don't know how often I will be able to make it here, but I'm hoping this will be a smooth transition.
In the meantime, you can expect to see some home photographs of our precious little house... just to share with you the place that we made our home. :)

Arg!
Yes, I taught my Doodle to make ugly-super-adorable faces. :) What can I say, I'm a good mom! ;)
Saturday was so much fun! I wish I has time earlier when it was all still fresh in my mind. Everything is really busy right now & we've got a couple of big things going on. But, Saturday I went to a new antique store & I LOVED IT! The prices were really good and they had some really awesome things! Afterwards, we went to Truett's, a branch of Chick-fil-a and ate. Then we went to my parents house later that night for a BBQ with a bunch of friends.
This weekend really felt like summer.
These are my journal prompts from the past 3 days! I really like how the bottom two turned out!
Well, I have a full day of things to do! I will catch up with everyone soon! And fill you in on whats happened here lately.ARg

Today I...
Today has been an interesting day. I'll share more later. The best part of today was sitting on my porch while it rained. I worked on my Granny Square Blanket. It was so nice and peaceful sitting out there and it cooled off so much it almost felt like fall. Here's the whole entry:
Today I...
This is the previous entry. These are the things I can't live without. The Promise is an easy way of saying my relationship with God. I know I couldn't live if there wasn't the promise of spending eternity with Him.
This is the blanket! It's coming along! I bought some yarn for the border today. I had to shop locally so I had to get Red Heart Super Saver. :( But I got a very pretty shade of pink, mustard and brown. It has a good retro feel to it.
I wish this post had a lot more enthusiasm in it, but I've had a rough day & there is a lot on my mind. Tomorrow will be lovely though. We're going to a new Antique Store.
Till Next Time!
I hope your weekend is peaceful and fun!!
also; I've been looking at cameras lately. getting ready to buy a new one soon and I was wondering lovely ladies, what are you shooting with? are your guns fancy schmacy or just enough? I've been using a borrowed Kodak Easy Share ZD8612 and I like it! It takes great pictures, but it goes through the batteries QUICK! I would like something that the computer charges, like my old Kodak Easy Share M853, but the quality of the pictures isn't as good. Help a sista ouuut! ;)

Journals and things
Hey There!
Is everyone keeping cool? I know it's hot as the dickens here and the only thing that seems to cool me off is sitting in front of a fan with my hair in a messy twist. It's been raining here lately, which is making is SUPER, SUPER humid. I'm talking nasty, steamy, humidity. It's completely gross.
But ENOUGH about weather!
Let's talk JOURNALS! ;)
I am enjoying this challenge so much! I like to look at the site in the morning. Then I spend all day thinking about what I plan to do. Normally, I start working on it after dinner and bath-time. These past few days have been a little busy & I'm behind on sharing them! But never the less, here my pages are:
such a good page for me to do. i am thankful for so much and to put it to pen and paper really helps me stay positive. this is just a list of everything i could think of.
I called them "staples". My stapes are black v-neck shirts, blue jeans, cardigans, flats, comfy skirts and sandals. I want both of these outfits so bad! They came from the old navy website & I am totally in love with both! I actually have the blue jeans and the ballet flats!
This is my autobio cover of the book of my life. I used this crazy geometric pattern because it's wild, crazy and fun. Much like me! :) I had fun doing this!!
Book List
Oh, this post has a certain little grip on my heartstrings. A BOOK LIST! YAY! These are my most favoritest books EVA! I would like to take a minute to say that reading is a HUGE passion of mine. I love to devour books. These are the books that I couldn't put down. Books that I thought about after reading them. Books that have stuck with me over a long period of time. (Like Speak. Read it in middle school. I've read it at least 10 times.) #2 is special to me because it was a book my Granny begged me to read. It was a beautiful book & it makes me think of her when I see it. #10 is the book I'm reading now! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. It's making me understand the Bible a lot more, even though it is a work of fiction.
So, there are my journal entries for the past few days. I actually love showing you my journal. It's kind of like bearing my soul to you, so I hope you like it too!
But guys, did you know... IT'S AUGUST! AUTUMN IS AROUND THE CORNER! I am so excited for mulled cider, halloween candy, long sleeves, jackets, riding with the windows down and the heat turned on, sitting on the porch to enjoy a hot cup of earl grey, the smell of fall burning, the colors in the trees and the leaves as they fall. :) it makes me giddy.
AND I am excited for crochet-ey goodness! :D
I hope everyone stays cool & holds on a little bit longer, because cold weather will be here SOON!
G'night!
