Macy's Home!!! :)


Wow, it has been a long time since I've updated!!! Too long!!! Macy's back home from Africa and had the time of her life. I actually haven't gotten to spend much time with her since she's been home because she's been on the go so much. Her best friend from Rayville, Shelby, has been here since Monday and just left. I didn't get to see Shelby much while she was here, either. The girls were busy with friends and went to the lake yesterday. I did get to eat pizza and homemade peach ice cream with them last night. Macy and I are going to the pool today, though. YEA!!! :) I love going to the pool and it is a great place to talk!!! The picture above was taken at the airport when Macy got back from Africa. I'll have to post some of her Africa pictures in another post.

I got to eat dinner with my best friend in the world, Sarah, last week. I LOVE this girl!!! Absolutely love her. We have been best friends since she was 5 and I was 6. She is one of the kindest people I have ever met. She lived across the street from me all growing up. She was just another member of the Smith clan. She went on all our vacations with us and everything. She is such a huge blessing in my life. I loved talking with her. She loves the Lord and it shows. Ignore my hair in this picture...I did not straighten it. :s

We went to Rayville for 4th of July. Hannah, Justin, and Rosie came with us, too. There were a ton of people there. Lamar has a huge family, like I do, which I love! :) Lamar's dad's 89th birthday was on July 3rd. He's such a wonderful man. I love him! Kathryn met us there, too. Rosie LOVES Kathryn. She calls her Kitty Kat. :) Ellie is at the beach for a couple of weeks with a friend so she didn't come.

Rosie's favorite colors are purple and pink. We both had on purple dresses so Mar took our picture. Mar and I had just eaten with Molly and Logan at Ya Ya's. I tell ya, they are an amazing couple. God is going to do great things with them, mark my words. I don't know that I have ever seen such a godly 21 year old man. Mar keeps telling me that Logan has inspired him to be a warrior. I think Mar already is a warrior but love it that Logan has motivated him even more. Here's a picture of the sweet pair...okay never mind, my computer won't let me upload a picture right now. I sure wish Picasa would let you blog more than 4 pictures...maybe they'll do that in an update. I'm so excited because BUNCO is tonight!!! YEA!!! :) I love it!!!

Here they are!!! YEA!!! Tried again and the computer let me upload it this time. Photobucket

I'm so glad Macy's home! I prayed for her so often during the trip. From their blog, it looks like God did some great things in their lives as well as the lives of the children whom they met! Can't wait to see pics from Africa!!!

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...
