Wouldn't it be wonderful if it snowed?! A white Christmas! Yesterday, it was kind of warm outside. Tomorrow, the low is 17, though! I love the cold weather. I love to bundle up and cuddle up, too! Last night, me, Mar, and Charlie Bear all laid in front of the fireplace and it felt so good. We had our carpets cleaned yesterday. They look so much better! It's nice to have all the stains out. This morning, Mar gave Charlie Bear a shower and now he is so clean and smells so much better! I blew him dry and he looks so soft and pretty. We also brushed him yesterday. It is always amazing to see how much hair comes out when we brush him!!! We had a trash bag full of his hair and I really think it was at least a couple of pounds! He looks skinnier now, too! HA! :) Kathryn and Ellie are coming today from Lousiana. It is always wonderful having them here. They are such sweet girls and so much fun, too! Macy's been out of town since Thursday. She took Andy, Michaela, and Kara to Missourri to see Andy's boyfriend's family. She's back in LR safe and sound now but I've yet to see her. She called and said she was in town but headed to a surprise party. Anyway, Mar and I have had the house to ourselves for a couple of days. This time next year, that will be the norm since Macy will be in college. Speaking of college, Asa is home from Bible school. Macy went and picked him up in Missourri last week. I am thinking that Macy may decide to go to that Bible school after all after she visits Asa over Spring Break. We'll see. Well, I have to go get the sheets out of the dryer and put them on the bed. More later!

Fast and Easy Rolo Brownie Bites

Happy Happy Friday, y'all! Some of y'all might know that back in the day I had a baking blog. And, by back in the day, I mean I started it in 2009 and my last post was in 2011. I probably should update it and keep adding to it, but I just don't bake or cook as much anymore now that our nest is empty. But, I did have so much fun with that blog. I would just bake or cook as usual but along the way I would take pictures and blog about the recipes. I still go back to that site and get recipes. I send my kids and friends there when they are wanting a certain recipe, too. It's so easy to just send them a link. I'm all about fast and easy recipes! One of my favorite super easy "go to" recipes are these super yummy and easy brownie bites. I first blogged about these in 2009 here but thought I would add the yummy recipe to this blog, too.  Ingredients: Brownie Mix (I use the Duncan Hines 13x9 family size). Rolo's (they now have them unwrapped) WOOHO...

Dresser Redo

I've been so bad at blogging in the past few years. I blog so I can remember. I painted a set of chest of drawers a few years ago in our other house and I loved the result. The only problem is I didn't blog about it so I have no record of what I did to it. I have no idea what red paint color I used. I thought I had it written on FB but I have searched and searched and I can't find anywhere where I wrote the paint color so now I have this wonderful red chest of drawers and have no idea what the color is. I didn't want that to happen again so I am making sure that I write about the chest of drawers in our master bedroom that I recently painted.  Here is the piece of furniture before Sorry about me in my robe in the mirror. LOL! I really wanted to lighten this up so I decided I would paint it white. I LOVE white and thought it would be great SO I used this chalk paint that I got at Michael's. I had already used it on my coffee table and thought it would be f...

My girl is MARRIED!!!

Oh, it's been so long since I've posted! I always say I'm going to start blogging again so I can remember things and then I never do. I get overwhelmed because I get so behind. It's like when I used to scrapbook, I would get behind and then just not do it. That's how I am about blogging but I just don't seem to remember things as well if I don't write them down and I love to have a record of life with pictures. But, I just HAD to write about Macy's wedding! I am just so happy about it!! I feel so overwhelmed with God's love for me and His goodness!!! Macy has always been such an example to me of God's grace and this is no exception. I always say, "How can Macy be MY child?" because she's just so NOT me. She is so much better! She loves mission trips, she is so laid back, and she has definitely not struggled in the same areas that I have struggled with. I've prayed for so long for specifics for Macy's future husband. The mai...
