I am incredibly thankful for my best friend and hubby....this pic was taken at Emily's party. He is rushing home today so I can leave with the girls to go see their friend Anna perform in the play Annie. What a great husband and father he is!! I am so blessed!!!

This layout was for the template challenge over at the digichick, it was a really cool graphic template!!


I just finished this one for the journaling challenge at the digichick. The challenge was to make a list or use bullet points to tell something about yourself. I had seen this awesome paper layout by Laura Vegas and decided to make a digi version! I'm really happy with how it came out!!

And last I just want to remind you about the blog hop on Saturday!! There are over 70 faith based crafters participating in this amazing blog hop!! And yes there are prizes and give aways!! I will also be having a give away so make sure you stop by and leave a comment on my blog! Can't wait to see you then!!

Today I am trying to be thankful in ALL things....my baby is not feeling well, fever and cough....poor Caleb! We were up a lot last night and he is sleeping on and off all day today. Mommy feels a bit out of sorts as well...but I was thankful for this precious picture I captured of him while he was napping. Praying prayers of healing over you my little man!

Sketch 30 went up yesterday! And I was able to make a cute Christmas Card with it!

Here is the sketch.....


And here is the card I put together using it...I used the slice to cut out the holly leaves...so cute!!


So head on over to CPCM and come play along with us! I would love to see what you create using my sketch!!

Playing a little catch up here this morning! I'm a bit behind in my month of thankfulness posts!


November 9th.....today I want to remember how thankful I am for the technology we are able to use in our home. I know that does not sound too exciting but it really helps me in giving my children a well rounded learning experience. Here Claire is on the computer with the headphones on.....at some point in the day all the kids do this and are able to learn advanced math, foreign languages and take writing classes to help them in their studies

November 10th......this is my very favorite place! I am so thankful for a spot to create!! I am so blessed that I have a space I can have all my tools and craft supplies in! Our Lord was very creative and I am so happy He made me in His image......I love to create things to bless others!

November 11th.....this morning as I sit and sip my tea and have my quiet time I am thankful for the most important thing.....Gods word. Without His word I would be so lost.

Thank you heavenly Father for your word which is the bread of life to us here on earth....may I live my life by the words You have given to me.


Today Ann has a wonderful post about memorizing scripture.  Powerful words.....truth.....


And I know it again, that 'what a heart knows by heart is what a heart really knows' and I've got to hide Words in the chambers, to cut down the soul-stalker, pump pulsing Truth through the veins.

Please hop over to Holy Experience to continue reading  and be inspired to get Gods word into your heart and your childrens! Be blessed!

This photo was taken when we went out and took some shots for her 16th birthday. I did this for the scraplift challenge over at the digichicks. I liked fooling with the blending on this one! I'm off to work on some projects for my Etsy Shop!

I won't lie, I did not take the camera out today and so I pulled this pic from the beginning of the month. Today the sky looked just like this and it was beautiful and warmer than it has been. So I think this pic works!

We are recovering from Emily's big party last night. It was a blessing and a wonderful time of fellowship with old friends and family! But today has been a day to reflect and have quiet. And I am so thankful for days like this when we all return home from church and there is a quiet that we do not normally have around here.....the girls are reading....Brian has a movie going and I am happy to just not have anything to do at the moment. The sky was beautiful today and it reminds me how amazing God is....what an awesome creator!
