    I think you were the only one who got the “if you give a…” reference! Haha! I love those books – the author, Laura Numeroff, came to my little boy’s school and she is so awesome in person. Our school wrote some type of grant and she was able to come! And we were able to buy her books, meet her and get her to sign the books! I find myself using that reference alot at home! Thanks for hosting the party ~ Have a great weekend!

    During the summer of 2008 I started using internet radio to reach an
    even wider audience. Wi – Fi internet radio is
    a new handy device for all music lovers of this world,
    which is a gift of the technology to the entertainment world.
    Having had my nearby store shut down recently I looked around for another place where I could get
    my gear from but unfortunately could not find any good outlets even
    remotely close to my home so started looking online.

    Much like Safari, the Camera app, the App Store and i – Pod,
    Game Center has no option to be deleted when editing your apps.

    “Worked All Zones Award” is the same concept with time zones.
    They also apparently believe that their customers who like a particular song they hear on the
    radio, are likely to purchase that song, which could add to downloads from i – Tunes.
    But mostly BBC Radios 4 and 5 because, being speech orientated, they’re more like what I do, so I can learn lots from them.

    You have to give a tube radio at least 20 to 30 minutes just to warm up and then you decide what frequency you want to be on and load the plate
    and tune them up. Much of your best players marketplaces in the
    united states are supervised. So, a custom direct
    application and route tracking can make it easier to you cut fuel cost, save
    visit time and wholesome delivery.

Happy weekend!! My limelight’s are finally bloom Happy weekend!! My limelight’s are finally blooming and I try really hard to not play favorites among the flowers in my garden but these beauties have my heart and bring me so much joy.

What’s bringing you joy today dear friends?
I can’t properly express how much joy it gives m I can’t properly express how much joy it gives me to know that my family loves being home. After a weeklong vacation, we all feel so happy to be back in our haven. As a homemaker in the truest sense of the word (the maker of a home), knowing my husband and children consider this the place where they feel the most relaxed and at peace means all of my intentions and efforts in this area are worthwhile. It’s not perfect and WE are not perfect by a long stretch. But, it’s where we feel the most free to be imperfect. And that makes it pretty wonderful! 🌱

Extreme rain and cooler temperatures followed by extreme heat then back to cloudy and rainy. But the silver lining is that when the sun finally does reappear we definitely don’t take it for granted. My mood is lifting along with the clouds and I’m here for it! ☀️

Happy Friday!! I’m working on a blog post to sha Happy Friday!! I’m working on a blog post to share all of the details of our family room shelving makeover but I’m super impatient and just had to give you all a sneak peek!! We are SO happy with how they turned out and it finally looks like I’ve always envisioned. Our quick fix years ago (scroll to see the before photo) never felt quite right but now? Soooo much better!! 🙌🏻 Big shoutout to our amazingly talented friend Matt @redemptive_woodworx for bringing our vision to life and doing such impeccable work.

I hope you all have a great start to the 4th of July weekend and make sure to check my stories later for Friday Funnies!

The month of June is coming to a close and it has The month of June is coming to a close and it has been JAM packed! The highlight by far though was my son's graduation from high school. When I started blogging, he was only 6 years old and some of you have been apart of my community here for that entire time. Now, he's 19 and there is a reason parents are told not to blink because the years truly do go faster than I ever could have imagined. He has become such an incredible young man we are so excited to see how God is going to unfold the next chapter of his life. We celebrated with parties galore (SO many open houses to attend!) and made memories we'll forever cherish. My mama heart was filled to bursting with the joy of it all! Now we're taking some time to just enjoy these warm, summer days making even more memories because, when you’re at this stage of parenting, you know all too well how much you need to grasp every opportunity to spend time together.

I hope your summer is off to a great start too dear friends! 🪴

Happy first day of summer dear friends!! I can’t believe it’s been so long since I posted something new here but life has been crazy. I’ll have some new photos of house projects and life events to share with you soon but, got now, I’m just going to enjoy this gorgeous first day of summer after our ridiculously long, wet spring. ☀️
