Baited Breath

The weekend was nice and relaxing, I had a lot of bonding time with my scrapbook table, and there was a lot of True Blood to be had as season two comes out on DVD tomorrow! *YAY!*

It was a nice weekend, lots of bonding time with Aquaman who decided to be a total Momma's boy and some wonderful breakfast and shopping time with a dear friend of mine.

Eric and I are looking forward to the long(er) weekend coming up, but this week will not go by without our worries.

A few prayer requests if you will.
- Mom is going in for her Bronchosocopy tomorrow - we will wait with baited breath to hear the results, and the findings of the procedure, but also we will pray without ceasing for her while she is under anesthesia and for her recovery after the procedure.
- The call committee meets this week to narrow down our choices for interviews for a new pastor for Grace. It's a prayer our church needs, we really need someone to come in and shake up our world!

Thanks guys! Hope your weekend was something fantastic!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

Thoughts of the American Pride Persuasion

I sat, mesmerized as I watched the “Breaking News” of the past 24 hours – Osama Bin Laden, Dead. What? I can’t really deny my mixed feelings about posting today. I don’t normally jump into the political rings but I can’t deny the HUGE news that swept our nation yesterday. So, this post has been thought out, a lot, typed really slowly, every word, intentional. Which is a huge leap from my normal ramblings of a Monday morning. We were sitting on the couch watching a movie, the movie ended and Eric turned on the news, and we watched, in awe. Just like September 11 th , I’ll always remember where I was when I heard the news. I can’t say I was ready to strap on a flag superhero cape style, and run up and down the street chanting “USA… USA… USA” like hundreds and thousands of other Americans in DC and New York, but then again, I wasn’t near ground zero, in Pennsylvania or at the pentagon the day that Osama Bin Laden became a household name. The American in me wants to be happy and
