There is always something very sacred, and comforting to a Bedroom of a Husband and Wife or Mother and Father. A Bedroom is where a Husband and Wife at the end of the day usually FINALLY get a chance to talk about their day, discuss things, and share loving-laughter-and intimate moments which are meant for the bedroom. At the end of a long hard day all you want to do is crawl up in your warm, soft, cozy bed and hope sleep falls quickly :) Also, kids find something comforting about a parents bedroom, if they are sick guess where they want to be in bed with mommy and daddy, almost every Saturday morning if my husband doesn't have to work my kids come crawl in bed with us, I LOVE THOSE MOMENTS. We laugh, we play, we have fun and make memories cause they are not always going to be small enough or want to do that.
oh yes I LOVE THE ROOM IN THE PIC

The Fondest Memories are made When Gathered Around the Table

I have a sign between my kitchen and dining room that says "The Fondest Memories are mad when gathered around the table" I think that is so true. During the holidays and when family is together it seems that if your not gathered in the Kitchen then you are gathered around a table, whether its to eat the meal, or just to play games you are gathered around a table. I know at my family's and my in laws, we are always talking while eating our meal having conversation and laughing. Now for games that is another story, we usually act like complete corn balls, laughing, the guys making chuck norris jokes that us girls just don't get and think are retarted, playing bunco and yelling it trying to keep Ronnie off the leader table :), and staying up so late playing games that the stupidest things make us bust up laughing. I LOVE that time when family is together, and I always miss it. So for me I think there are so many memories made around a table. Maybe that is why my Mother in Law has kept hers for so long because of all the memories it holds.

Kreativ Blogger Award!
Kreativ Blogger Award!
Today I received a nomination for the Kreativ Blogger award from my dear sis in law Kim . She usually talks more about her kids so it was neat to find out some things about her using this. Here are some things you may or may not know about me, ENJOY.
1. I got married at a very young age of 17 while I do not recommend it for several reasons, one of which I was/am very mature for my age many girls don't grow up for a while, I grew up fast. I don't regret at all getting married when I did, I met an incredible man who I LOVE very much and have made and am making an incredible life with him.
2. I received the Holy Ghost at the young age of 5. I remember it very well but I think you always do. I think one of the most incredible things to see and witness is a child receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost
3. I have a SHOE ADDICTION. It is quite terrible I have all sorts of shoes in different colors and styles. I do have to admit and my husband to it isn't an expensive addiction yes if you add it all up maybe but I have never spent over $30 on a pair of shoes and that was for boots which always run more.
4. I have a very unique, intriguing personality which would turn some people away but it is my and once you get to know my I think you would like it and me. It isn't bad its just not like everyone else's. I am my own person have my own thoughts, and concerns, decisions. I don't like to be conformed to anybody's ways, I have my own ways they work for me so I LIKE THEM.
5. I bottle up my anger, fears, etc. until I feel like I am going to blow which I don't. I am trying to work on it just unlike most women I am not the talk it out type. I am more the type when I get mad or upset I am very quiet and I think about it all in my head.
6. I want to eventually some day go back to school and get my nursing degree, I love the medical field and that has been one of my dreams. I also love Interior Decorating, Coordinating weddings and parties, and I LOVE PHOTOGRAPHY, a picture can capture time something we can never have back, I am saving my money for my Nikon 5000 which I will get someday
7. Like my sis in law I LOVE THRIFTING I love trying to find clothing and other things from the past that could probably tell a story. And finding things to wear that others might not dare, or others could not find, there is only one. Being UNIQUE

It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year



I don't know about most people but I LOVE CHRISTmas. It is my favorite holiday. Wherever you go around Christmas it seems and feels like everyone is happy and it doesn't matter what your religious, spiritual, political, or daily life view is you are happy and all celebrating. But in the midst of all it all the gift giving, parties, traveling, I think people can sometimes forget what Christmas is all about. Even though we know December is not actually the month Jesus was born in it is when we celebrate it, do you celebrate your birthday, loved ones, than why not celebrate the birthday of the man who died so that you might be saved. That is one of the main reasons I love Christmas to think that God sent his son as flesh, he sent him as a baby in the womb of a virgin, the angel said to Mary God has found favor with thee, could you imagine the honor Mary would have felt that out of every one on earth God had found favor and entrusted her with his son. OOOOPS I got of track. God had a Mother and a Father raise him instill values and a Love for God. I could go on and on and on but people have tried to take the CHRIST out of CHRISTMAS, I frankly do not understand it. I love decorating for Christmas the lights, the trees, the smells, LOVE IT.

Creative Girl



Decorating kids rooms are a lot of fun, and can be challenging. Trying to do something neat, unique, intriquing, and fun all in the same room. Oh yes and kid friendly too. Boys like certain things it basically comes down to they want a few main things but other than that could care less. Girls they care about every little thing, where things are going to be placed, to the color, and if they don't like it they will let you know. My little girl is only 6 months so can't really give her opinion yet about her room decor or what she wears, I do know about this, I have two incredible nieces who know what they want in their room, and mostly know what they want to wear. I LOVE IT, I think it is so cute, I know it can drive their mom nuts sometimes especially on Sunday mornings, but they are exploring their creativity, and my their mom encourages it, GREAT JOB MOM. Kids need that boys are more drawn to technical things and girls are more drawn to things of style, along with other things.

My favorite color is Green always has been probably always will, I try and incorporate green in every room somewhere, whether it is a plant, pillow, chair, whatever nearly every room has something green. If I had a bigger house I would have a green room. I think every house should have a "Green Room". Anyways I found this room and LOVED IT, I am more drawn to different shades of Olive Green but I like pretty much all greens.
