Flowers around my house

 Anniversary roses


 A tulip part of my handpicked bouquet from Isabel
She ran to give them to me
A bunch of flowers cupped in her precious little hands
"For you Mommy"


A tulip in full bloom in our backyard

Grace for the day



I proclaim God's grace over you today
May His grace cover you with favor
surround you with love
heal what has been broken
restore what has been stolen
and give you peace

Craftiness on a snow day

Yesterday the kids had a snow day, so we got our craftiness on and made one of these.  I'm sure you've seen them around the web before.  I've wanted to do this for a long time and a snow day seemed like a good time to do it.


Hot glue some crayons to a white canvas.  (we painted white over this old canvas - and, yes, that is a paintbrush in the middle.)  It doesn't have to be perfect, unless you're one of those types that it does have to be perfect, in which case, take a deep breath.


 add a silly child

and start blow drying

and blow dry some more


and some more



until you have something like this:




Isabel added some sparkle to the right side which is hard to see in the pictures but very pretty.  Fun project.  I recommend it.

If you had a snow day too,

I hope you had a fun day!

It's Spring!





Grace and Grandpa Siffring planted this bulb in Nebraska and
Grace brought it home with her.  She has been taking
good care of it and it shows.
It is so beautiful!
It's all ready for Spring.

And so are we.

Happy Friday




We did more bowling without bumpers.
Isabel did great!


Isabel got her haricut!


Grace's selfy.
She's so cool.



Hope you had a great week!
