Putting Things together and decorating

Well, we finally have everything in our house and now it

is time to put everything together and organize and decorate....

First, we put the kitchen table in the dining room and

started with my corner hutch behind it....

We put the bed together in the guest room....

Here is Nathan with his first home improvement project :)

He is trying to get the washer and dryer hooked up so we

can use them....

They are finally put against the wall where they belong...

Nathan didn't want his picture taken, but he is the one

measuring to make sure the pictures look right on the wall

It was fun trying to decide where to put all of our pictures

and how we wanted to decorate everything.

These are on the wall as you enter the front door.

Don't they look good here? I am modeling the pictures for you :)

Here is Nathan measuring the wall to

see where to hang up our mirror, he wants it to

be centered...

Isn't this a cool mirror? We got it as a wedding present.

I decided that I wanted to do my kitchen/dining room

in a coffee theme for a while. The picture on the left

says "Coffee is a pleasure, Good friends are a Treasure"

I just thought this was a cool saying and I love the

picture on the right that just says Coffee :)

Here is a side view so you can see all of it. I added

two mugs that say Latte and Cappuccino...

Here is a picture of the dining room. It is starting

to come together nicely!

Nathan is trying to figure out how to hang

the television on the wall. He has all of his tools

out and is ready to start working on it....

He was working hard on getting it all

up on the wall.....

Here is a picture with it up on the wall. Now it

just needs the final touches and it will be done.

More pictures to come as we get the rooms

finished and decorated...Hope you are enjoying our

journey as much as we are :)

Miracles and Faith

Have you seen miracles in your lifetime? I have and without a doubt I’ve known it was only God’s grace and Him performing that miracle that the situation changed. I have been raised in the church and have seen many different miracles throughout my lifetime, but one of the more recent ones was when my youngest son was born. He was born at 30 weeks but had quit growing at 28 weeks gestation. He was only 2 pounds and 5 ounces when he was born. Now, I know that science and the medical field did everything they could, but I also know that it is a true miracle that he is alive today because there is only so much that humans can do on their own. It is a miracle that I survived that pregnancy also. I remember being at Heaven’s gates the night before my son was born. I was on bed rest in the hospital for 12 days before my son was born. That is one of the hardest things to go through when you have another child at home that you can’t be there ...

New blog

This was a challenge trying to get this blog set up, but I wanted to start a blog about my long-distance dating journey. My boyfriend lives about six hours from where I live so it has been an interesting challenge trying to figure out the logistics of when we can see each other since our work schedules are completely opposite. We met about eight years ago when he lived in the same town that I live in. We attended the same church at the time and that is how we met. After dating on and off for a few years he accepted a position in a new store that was opening with his company and decided to move away. We remained friends and talked on the phone occasionally but decided that dating just wasn't going to work at that time. After a few years, we decided to try the dating thing again and now it has been about three months and we see each other about every two weeks or so and talk on the phone to each other just about every night. Well that is enough hi...

Impossible!!!

1 Peter 1: 7-9 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 8 Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 9 Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. What is your impossible situation? What is your I need a miracle situation? I heard these lines in a song recently and it got me to thinking about how sometimes situations in our lives seem so impossible and out of control. We just don't know what to do about it or what to think about that situation. I read the above scripture in 1 Peter last week and it got me to thinking about how gold is refined by going through fire, diamonds are mined from deep within the earth. We wouldn't have the beautiful jewelry and precious me...
