K~Bel Turns *4*

It is SO hard to believe

That our Sweet K~Bel 

Is already 4

This little Miss brings such joy to my life

Along with her sisters

 

She totally enjoyed her party

 

I bet you cannot guess where we went ~ LOL

 

One of her special 'cousins'

He's really an uncle once or twice removed

But cousin just works better

 

K~Bel absolutely Loved the gift

That K~Bug made for her 

 

Beautiful Little Miss

 

Beautiful cake created and decorated

By her grandma (not me)

So Talented

 

K~Bel

You are a delight and the most curious little Bel in the world

You both challenge and melt my heart

There is almost nothing in the world I wouldn't do for you

I just won't tell you that ~ YET!!!

Happy 4th Birthday 

My Sweet K~Bel

Baby, She Needs a Makeover

Hi Friends

I found this little beauty about a month ago

And Baby, She Needs a Makeover

But she was on $22 so I couldn't pass her by

I think she's older than I am

So we Know she's old - LOL

 

And, she is well worn

Kind of like me

 

However,

She has such character, charm and she called my name

 

It doesn't show well in these photos

But she has a yellow color to her 

Which does not fit into my home at all

Her cabinet doors have all but broken off

So she'll need lots of TLC

To try to restore her 

 

But she is definitely worth the effort it will take 

To bring her beauty back

Or at least, Make her more presentable

I'm looking forward to working her over

This coming weekend

What are your plans??

Have you found a fun piece to re-make lately??

Do Share!

 

An Appreciated Respite

A Heartfelt 

THANK YOU

To Dianne

One of our great providers 

At our medical practice

Who graciously invited the staff

Up to her 'cabin' in the woods for the weekend

 Just a little 4500 sq foot place

Enjoyed lunch on the deck

With absolutely Beautiful Views

 

Most of us have 'short' hair

Yet we all put our hair up in ponies

So we could play 'spoons' without hair pulling

LOL

 

Lots of photos were taken :)

 

A Beautiful weekend 

And a fun time with our office staff

I'm so thankful to work with such an Awesome Team

Thanks again, Dianne!!!

My Little Artists

Thursday's at Nana's House

Are Just TOO much Fun!!

Although I miss my K-Bug so much

(back to school)

It is still such a joy

To spend these days with my little's

We decided to make today 

A Paint Day

 

I gave the girl's rectangular paper bowls

 

They just started pouring in the paint

 

And voila

We had messy all over

Couldn't have been more fun :)

One of the beautiful things about being a Nana

Is that you Never sweat the small stuff

Enjoy the Moments

And allow them to be Kiddos!!!

Thanks for allowing me to share my girlies!

A Heart at Peace

Today was not a day I was looking forward to

I've had a migraine for two days AND

The entire pool cleaning system

Needed to be Cleaned

WHAT?

Yes,

Internal parts, filters, baskets, and salt cell

All needed to be removed from their homes

And receive a heavy-duty cleaning

Each part removed

All eight (8) filters ready for their showers

 

This used to be a job I rather enjoyed

Spending a couple of hours

Hanging out with my husband

Talking, laughing and enjoying each others company

Now, It's just another chore

One that takes several hours and lots of physical labor

Yet, it is also a quiet time for my heart

To listen and hear the Lord

And that is what happened today

 

The past month has been tough for me

My son was in the hospital with a severe injury

Two days later we left on a Much Needed and Very Over due vacation

That was fun but over 2000 miles of driving

The following week we had company arrive from California

My heart felt heavy and rushed to accomplish things 

From my 'To Do" List

But today the Lord reminded me 

That, just as the internal parts of the pool cleaning system need to be cleaned

So do my internal parts, especially my heart

The internal parts are what make the pool inviting

Pleasing to swim in, look at and relax by

 Therefore they need to be in excellent working order

The same is true for our hearts

When our insides (hearts, spirit, soul) are in good working order

We are pleasing to others

When our hearts are weary, frustrated, and overwhelmed

We put off an unpleasant aura 

When I came in from working on cleaning the pool system

I opened my Bible to this verse.

"A Heart at Peace Gives Life to the Body"

Proverbs 14:30

Oh how I needed this reminder today

The pool system has been cleaned and 

All parts have been returned to their homes

But more importantly

My heart has been reminded of it's own need for cleaning

Through God's Word and spending time with Him

Tonight,

I have a Heart At Peace

I pray you do too!!!

We're Baaack...

After being away for a year

We Have Returned To

iPhone

They arrived today

And We Couldn't Be Happier!!!
