Hope's Christmas decor

I am not decorating for Christmas this year. We are in the process of moving. We are making small loads to the new house every now and then but the movers are actually coming to move the big stuff on Dec. 27th. SO, no Christmas decor this year. Because of this, I am living vicariously through my precious friend, Hope! And if you'e going to live vicariously thorough someone, especially with decorating, she's your girl! HA! Look how beautiful her house is! It's a blessing to just be in there. It feels so Christmasy and homey! Just take a look at some of the pictures I took last night. 

She has initials on this little tree for all the family members.
I don't think the image quality is very good because I uploaded these on the blogger app from my phone.
We had prayer group last night at Hope's and she got everyone candles. 
She put a verse on each person's candle. 
She said she got me this candle because I bring sunshine to her life whenever I am with her. It made me feel so good! And just take a look at how cute the candle is!! Gold glitter all over the top! SO FUN!! 

All our kids are coming on Saturday. They are staying until Monday with the exception of Macy. She's staying a lot longer! YAY! Hannah and the kids are coming tomorrow and I'm SOOOO excited! I have 6 people staying in our little rental and only one twin bed! HA! SOOOOO, I've got a lot to do!! I need to get an aerobed and get our twin beds out of storage to put on the floor. Should be an interesting weekend with all the kids sharing a bathroom! Definitely memories will be made! 

Merry Christmas! 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...
