Summertime = Family time and a Giveaway!

We've been doing lots of family time lately. Posts will be sparse but that's ok. I have been looking so forward to the day that the Hubs is out for summer. He gets 6 weeks off!!!!! Much needed after a hard year coaching and teaching. By the time summer gets here, I am so ready for him to have a break and all I want to do is hole up in the house and snuggle. So we have!

Malone took her first summer trip to Lulu and Pops and had a blast. They played hard and had lots of good lovin'. We picked her up on Saturday and spent the weekend with the Hubs grandparents. So great to relax and spend time with the fam!

Lo playing the piano. She looks like a natural!

Little hands!

She carried that bucket around full of water like it was her purse.

Look at that face!

She squinches her nose and says "DHEEEEESE!" (for cheese)

She had fun walking around in Lulu's flip flops

When summer comes, I get lots of the Hubs cooking. Yum! He is a keeper!

More Living Room Inspiration

So, I am about 3/4 done with the living room project. I can't wait to show it to you guys! I will probably show it before it is "finished" because it may never be totally "finished." I'm sure I will always add a piece here or there. I am loving how it is coming together. The paint turned out great and even though it is a little darker than the old paint, the room manages to feel much bigger. Loves it!

Here is another room that inspired me with my living room re-do:

I am so obsessed with Abode Love's man cave/gameroom. The colors are fab and I LOVE the football picture. It is perfect. I may have to steal that idea for a future man cave room. I like the mix of fabrics and the orange is to die for! You have to run over to Abode Love and check out her house tour. I love every single room in her house and she is absolutely adorable. Seriously, you will hate her she is so dang cute!

Happy Thursday ya'll!

Malone's Dedication...so sweet!

In January (I know well over due post) we had Malone dedicated at our church, LakePointe. There is no baptism or christening. We stand in front of the church body and dedicate ourselves to raising Malone in a christian home. The church and our families dedicate themselves as well. It was a very sweet ceremony and a great day for our little family.

The Hubs, Malone and I just before her dedication

On stage accepting the blessing from our Pastor

We had an orientation that The Hubs attended where we received her "Faith Box".

This was the verse Calley picked as Malone's life verse. He hit the nail on the head!

It reads:

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances,

for this is God's will for in Christ Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18

The Faith Box includes a sealed letter to give to Malone on her 13th birthday. I am dying to know what this says. Just another lesson in patience since having my first child!

The Faith Box also includes a binder that will chronicle her faith journey. There are so many great resources and journaling opportunities in this binder. I am so thankful for our church for being so committed to helping us raise our children in this way. I thought this page was too cute. Do you call your church service "big church" also?

After the service we all went back to our house for Fajitas. My niece rode home with us to help keep Malone entertained. It obviously worked. Such a sweet laugh. Enjoy!
