Read This

I just finished reading this book and I loved it.  I borrowed it from Doris, and I am going to have to buy it.  One of my favorite lines from the book:  "Jesus sees our big hurts and our small hurts, and offers grace to heal them all."  It is the sweetest story.  Go read it!

Harper Around the House

We have a very busy baby girl...

Playing peekaboo in the curtains...

...she likes to play in Mommy and Daddy's shower...

...she likes to play with her cups...

...and she loves Mommy's cotton balls!  (What's really funny is I just now noticed that she has a binky in her mouth in 3 of those pics... ha!)

Eatin' breakfast.  This girl LOVES cottage cheese.  She puts it in her mouth by the fistful, because the spoon is not fast enough.

Around the House

A couple of weeks ago, there was a really bad storm.  So bad that Justin came and got me out of the shower so we could go in Harper's bathroom and wait it out.  The winds were horrible obviously, since Harper's swingset was picked up and thrown and broken into several pieces.  I am so sad!  Hopefully we can get her something soon.  She loved her slide.


My (early) birthday present from my parents - a buffet for our dining room.  LOVE it.  Mom found it at an antique store in Abilene.  It's in my color :)

This coffee table was my parents for 15 years, then it became ours a few years ago.  We finally decided to paint it...  
Before...

Justin painting...

...and after, sanded.  How did we do?  Next project: painting the dining room chairs.
