Living Room Redo

While sipping coffee with friends, we decided to makeover my living room!  This was three days before we discovered furniture sliders, but we got er' done.  I didn't like the fact that whoever was sitting in my fave chair couldn't see the TV, so voila!  The first two are the before pics...

 and here is the after!  We redid the top of the entertainment center, as well.
 I found a little "ottoman" on sale at Hobby Lobby for $20 marked down from $60 and decided it would be a fun addition!
 I think my new little reading nook will be just perfect.
 Yep, it works! 
If you need a pick me up, invite a few friends over for coffee and a mini-room makeover.  Works every time!

The Peach Orchard

When my out-of-town friend Kim called and said they would love to meet us at the Peach Orchards, I didn't even have to think twice!  Getting to see her and her girls is a real treat and doesn't happen quite often enough!  So, we met in the HEAT of the day and let the kids pick to their heart's content.  20 pounds and 17 dollars later, we hugged goodbye and took our loot home to share with others.  There is nothing like a sweet peach straight from the tree!




 This is their daughter, Anna.  She needs our prayers right now...lots of medical questions that need answering and lots of peace needs to surround this family.  I'd be honored if you would pray alongside of me.

Summer Lovin'

It was the boys' last night with their cousins and so we went all out.  Who knew one watermelon and one water hose could produce so much fun?  Sweet melon was devoured, water stunts were performed and tears were shed as we said our goodbyes.  16 hours is just too long to live from those you love.
