Thankful Thursday

Got this idea from my blog friend, Marlo. It's Thankful Thursday!!! :) Love this idea!

I'm VERY thankful for rainbows! Everytime I see a rainbow, I feel like God is just shouting how much he loves us...how creative to give us something beautiful to remind us of a promise. I'm also thankful for my sweet nieces who are in this picture. AND...I'm thankful for my sister, Hannah, who took this picture.

Oh how thankful I am for this precious girl who will be 18 in less than a week! This has always been one of my very favorite pictures of May May....look at those cute piggy toes! I also love the band-aid and painted nails (you may not be able to see the painted nails in this picture but I have a framed 8x10 of this right above me so I can see the small details). :)

And, I am SO thankful for this little sunshine!!! God blessed my socks off when He put Rosie Love in my life. God moved us back to LR just in time to be a big part of this little one's life. I call her my bright spot because I tell ya, this little girl brings LOADS of joy!!! She also brings lots and lots of laughs!! Yesterday, we (Hannah and I) took her shopping and she entertained us the whole time. I got her some new pink sequin shoes and they made noise when she walked on a hard floor so she started tap dancing in this one shoe store. Rosie kept saying that she was a little girl so she dances. Hannah told her that some boys dance, too, and she said, "Well, I'm a girl and THIS girl dances!" pointing to herself. HAAAA!!! :) Precious and SO girly!!!

Super super thankful for this man!!! Whoa....talk about God having grace on me when He gave me Lamar. It is so wonderful to be loved and this man loves me and he loves me well. I could go on and on and on but I can get pretty ooey gooey about Lamar and have many times before on here. :) I love him!!!!

I am also thankful for my Thursday morning Bible study where we are studying the Psalms of Ascent. The video this morning was so good...such a blessing! Our small group afterwards is really good, too, and we have the kindest leader with a great heart.
I've got a lot more things I am thankful for (like my loyal furry friend who is at my feet right now) but I'll save those for next Thursday. Mar's almost home from work so I need to wrap this up.

This is so good, love all the pics. God is good, and Thankful Thursdays help me remember that and keep things in perspective. You are awesome Heather, I am so thankful for blogs, which is how I originally met you. Marlo

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...

Show us where you live Friday.....the Kitchen

Most of you probably read Kelly's blog . She is so much fun! Well, she is hosting a "Show us where you Live Friday" and this week is the kitchen edition. I am excited about this because I absolutely LOVE looking at houses and decor....it's so much fun and can really show someones personality. I just love to see how others express themselves through decorating. While I really do love my kitchen, it is the room I am looking forward to redoing the very most. My future plans are to take down the wallpaper and paint, paint the ceiling, redo the cabinets (probably really dark wood), paint the island black, take down the florescent light fixture above the island and replace with something a little more up to date, and replace the curtains. I think the previous owners did a great job decorating it but I would rather it be more my personality. I spend A LOT of time in my kitchen and I really enjoy it!! When my mom and dad moved, they gave me their big round table that seats...

What's on your wall Wednesday

I have never done this before but think it's such a fun idea! Hopefully, I will link everything right. I got this idea from a blog I follow and she got this idea from Barb at Grits and Glamour ...if you want to participate or see other walls on Wednesday, go on over there and take a peek. I decided to show you what's on my bedroom walls. I read an article a few years ago on making your bedroom all about you and your spouse so I really tried to do that in our room...here are my walls in my bedroom. Here's our bedroom...the sign above the bed says: I have these photo colleges on both sides of the armoire. I made the first one after we had been married 4 years and the second one after we had been married 8 years. I got the iron wall hanging above the fireplace at Ballard Designs. I would have never picked it out (not because I didn't like it but I just wouldn't have thought of it) but my friend was giving me decorating ideas for our house in Monroe and she picked this...
