My Favorite Times of the Day

My little Jammie time girls

My favorite times of the day are when the girls wake up in the morning, and when they go to bed at night. There are mornings when it is hard to find anything cute about Aris at 4:30 AM. However after I wake up I love her sweet little smile and raspy giggles. I love Sloan and her happy smiles, and Zoe with her cute little bed head hair. Everyone is fresh and rested and ready to start the day. 

In the evening when the girls are bathed and dressed in their jammies, teeth are brushed and Sloan's shots are given, I read to them. There are only a few nights a month where we just don't get to read. I try not to miss a night. I love it. It's my excuse to read all the kids books that I have been wanting to read. Then I say family prayer with the girls, and they each say their prayers with me. I spend a few more minutes singing each of them a few of their favorite songs. Most nights after I have gotten the water for the girls, I still end up going back in a few times. Kisses are given and I just love those sweet little girls. Once the girls are in bed I hopefully get to spend some time with my biggest sweetheart of all, Dean. Yes I love all my time with my family............ but these are my most favorite times of the day.

What I wish I had in my Closet

Yes, If I could spend any amount of money, this would be in my closet and I would be wearing it to church today. I would also rock her lovely do.

Newest Illustration

Just finished this. I don't know if I am completely happy with it. I think the background might be too busy. I was going for a vintage look. I did however have a lot of fun making it.  

A gift from Firefly Hill

I am sorry it has taken me over a week to post on this. I broke down and bought another battery charger in the hopes that I would find the one I lost as soon as I got the new one. Now I can show you my newest treasures! These beautiful bags are from my friend Annie over at Firefly hill. I sent her some fabric a while back. I am embarrassed to say it took me 40 forevers to send it her way. I am also sad to say I wasn't able to find all the fabric I wanted to send her. There is more somewhere in our disorganized garage. Also to add to all my foibles, when thanking her for all these lovely bags I accidentally called her LORI! How ridiculous am I? Lori is my blog friend from Morning Glories & Moonbeams. Thankfully Annie forgave me. If you haven't visited her blog yet go and take a peak. Annie lives on a farm and makes the most amazing little bags. Her blog is very inspiring. I am a huge fan of color, and she spotlights the beauty of color all the time on her blog. 

Thank you so much Annie for all the lovely bags. My little Zoe still carries her pink bag around everywhere and Sloan carries all her diabetic supplies in hers whenever we head out the door.
