Deanna sent me this cute video of her fur baby drinking a “Puppucinno” I thought it was the cutest thing! (No actual coffee was used in the filming of this video)
I Did It…..
I crafted.
I finally got up the nerve to paint the heavy brass platter I got at an estate sale for $5. I LOVE IT! Now it actually matches our stuff and I can’t wait to use it. It’s really heavy and much bigger than it looks in the pictures. Did I mention I love estate sales???
“I can sparkle like Edward too Mom!”
Hope ya’ll are having a great weekend!

American Meal {Hoffbrau Steaks Review}
The perfect view from our table!
At Hoffbrau they serve the most delicious bread…it is so good and Connor especially enjoys it!
Appetizer: Potato Skins=YUM!
I ordered the Dr. Pepper BBQ chicken sandwich and potato chips. It was SO good! I loved the potato chips, they are made in house and taste amazing.
Terence got the chicken fried steak with a baked potato. He really enjoyed his as well!
Our Bathrooms {Over the Years}
Linking up again with Kelly’s tour of homes.
I love looking at houses and if you really love houses then you’ll love this site called Hooked on Houses. I could surf that site forever!
Our bathrooms are not too exciting!
But I’ll share anyways 🙂
Here is our master tub/shower
Guest Bathroom
I really want to frame out that mirror
And now for a little history….. this is our first bathroom as a married couple almost 11 years ago! This was our one bathroom in our base housing on Little Rock Air Force Base. Oh 70’s bathroom memories…..
Then we moved into our one bedroom apartment in Little Rock….
Then our 1 bedroom apartment in Plano, TX…
And if it weren’t for Connor we’d probably still be living in a one bedroom apartment if it were up to Terence! Ha ha! Or a condo or something. He does not like yard work….even though he’s worked really hard and I think we have the best yard on the street 😉
I love this yellow hair dryer chandelier at DryBar….my next bathroom.
This will be in it 😉
4th of July 2012
We had a great 4th of July!
Here is our little family on the 4th.
Little Firecracker
We went out to lunch at Hoffbrau
I got a red, white, and blue sno cone 🙂
The fam getting ready for the fireworks
Kids running EVERYWHERE!
We didn’t get home until late….I am so tired today. It was worth it though. Connor was a little scared when the fireworks first started, but once he got used to the noise the kids started to enjoy it.
FIREWORKS!
Sustaining Happiness
QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
What are your favorite resources for increasing and sustaining happiness?
THE BIBLE
I really need to do better at reading my Bible every day. It’s something I struggle with and I really feel called to do….especially lately. Lord I pray for hunger for Your word. I love You and without you there is no life. Happiness is because of YOU.
MY FAMILY
I love my family with all my heart, they fill my life with so much joy and I thank God every day for them. The joy they bring me is cherished and always loved. They provide so much happiness in this life.
And of course every now and then it’s nice to have a HAPPY treat 🙂
Godiva extra dark truffles!
And of course Starbucks 😉
Thank you Lord for this life I live.
I am happy and pray for sustainment…it’s an every day struggle for me.
But through Christ I can do anything!
