Just wanted to share

I know I've posted about dealing with my emotions before and things have definitely gotten better but I really like this photo. It's a great representation of how I've felt. 

Just make the guilt color bigger.

Working on the potty training thing. I'm not very good at it. Walter has peed in the potty a lot but I still don't know if he's ready. It's not that easy but we're taking it slow.


I didn't do much yesterday but the kitchen got cleaned and dinner was in the crockpot. In the eyes of Mr. Travis, this is perfection haha! 


When you're poor but you want a new look in your house just rearrange your decor. 

I think this guys is teething.



Can you guys spot my shadow?? Walter is never too far from momma. Unless, of course, he's doing something bad...

Plans Today: Do Nothing

Thursday night our furnace went out. Which is a pretty terrible thing to happen in the winter and with two small boys. It did get fixed late Friday afternoon and the Lord once again took care of us. We paid $0 to get it fixed because it was still under warranty! It would have cost us $600 without it and we really don't have that kind of money. It was such a blessing !

Until it was fixed the boys and I stayed at mom's while Travis worked.


Friday night Trav and I had a date night! Check out my sweet 90's looking bangs!


Saturday we cuddled and then ran around a bit.


A messy bed is a comfy bed :)



Then we went to my moms for cookies.

I decorated these.


Sunday was church, then lunch, football, new dude boots (photo below) and then some guys came over to watch the WWE Royal Rumble.


Thank you Jesus for the joy you bring to my life through my family. Help me be a better follower and servant of you. 

I think today we will do nothing :)

Tuesday is Sister Day

Tuesday's are always exciting. I bet you don't hear that everyday :)


New comforter



Abby came over

And so did Sammi if course.

Video chat with Lexi

Then ended the day with dinner and movies.

My sister Laura went into labor on Tuesday and have birth to a sweet baby girl by Wednesday morning! Her name is Olivia June and she's adorable! In March we get it visit them and now I'm even more excited!

Indian food for dinner tonight. There are a  lot of ingredients but it's made in the crockpot so that's nice! 

We are just going to relax until church tonight.

Duann's birthday was Friday and I made dinner for everyone.

I've finally finished this monster of a blanket. It's so heavy!


Walter bringing me juice.

And watching the snow.

Some snapchats from Travis and Sammi. 



Hanging out at my mom's house Sunday night.


Walt was under these blankets watching a movie on someone's phone hah!

And this morning...


Here is a photo of our local mall when I was just a kid. I totally remember this! I love old photos.

My sister has been having some contractions on and off today. She is getting really close to giving birth! I'm really excited for her. I hope it goes well and fast :)

1-15-16

I've been toying around with this idea of a crochet "club". I don't really like the word club because it sounds like it's exclusive and requires money or something to join. I want the group to involve anyone who likes to crochet or has a interest or even just wants to hang out for a couple hours a month without any kiddos. 

The idea is to get together to either work on personal projects or work together on projects that we can donate to an organization (hospitals, Lighthouse Mission, food pantries, etc.). This is something I thought we could leave up to the group. 

But more serious, this group could be a great way to make new friends and share Jesus. I've been praying about this idea for a bit now and today it's really been on my mind. I want this group to be good and I want God to bless it. I've done things in the past that without praying about it first and they didn't go so well. If this idea is going to happen then I want it to be glorifying to Christ. 

I'm still praying about it and waiting on the Lord to line things up and make it clear that this is something we should do. 




My girl Tuesday ;)






And this. Maybe all my post should end with a Dwight Schrute quote.
