Spring Break

So this was Cade's To-Do list for his Spring Break...

We had a super time in Dallas over Spring Break

checking things off our "to-do" list.

And no where on there do I see

Give Mom some concentrated time on the computer,

which is why this Spring Break post is coming late!

Oh well, it was a fun week!!!

Here's a little peak...

“The beauty of the house is order.

The blessing of the house is contentment.

The glory of the house is hospitality.

The crown of the house is Godliness.”

I have never read a better definition of what home really means.

THIS IS SIMPLY THE BEST...

These beautiful words would look ever so lovely painted

on one of my walls

or hand painted into a hanging plaque.

I fell head over heals in love with this quote

after reading it for the first time.

It embodies exactly the way I want my home to

feel to my family as well as my friends.

What a remarkable reminder to read, of what home means

each & everyday!

I'm scrawled this quote onto a sticky note to hang on my mirror....

there it will stay,

until the day that I will hang it in a future home!

My little branches are all dressed up for Easter baby!

All you need to do is take out your shredded paper and replace it with moss, remove the hearts in place of your happy little eggs, switch out your bow and

~ SHAZAM ~

Your Easter center piece is ready for oogling by the masses,

especially your kid folk, who enjoy asking...

1) Are those eggs real?

2) {in response to answered question numero uno}

Do they have candy inside?

and

3) Mommy, can we put some candy inside?

And I know someone is bound to ask, but the answer is

NO.

my sweet little candy-eyed chocolate bunny is a decoy, a fake, a fraud...

but a good impostor, no?

I purchased him about 3 years ago at a quaint little decor shop in Salado, Texas.

If I was brave enough to stick a real one up, he'd either be

a) dog bait

b) kid fodder

or

c) mom's stress snack by sundown

Happy Birthday Sista'

After celebrating the birth of the NeWeSt addition to our family,

we celebrated the 31st birthday of another!

Since Amanda had yet to be discharged from the hospital on

her birthday, we decided to take the party to her...

With cake, gifts, and 2 ecstatic cousins in tow

we brought some birthday cheer to room #117!

It will definitely be a birthday to remember...
