The X factor

Hey everyone! I hope that you all had a wonderful Easter and that your week is going well. Today's post is dedicated to the X Bench. I'm sure you are seeing them everywhere. I am on the lookout myself for an inexpensive set to snag. Here are a few that I have found that I really love. Enjoy!

This last room is my favorite.

Until tomorrow...

Good Friday

As I think about some of my favorite parts of the Bible, two of the bits of scripture take place in a garden. The first is in Genesis when the Word says that "Jesus walked in the garden in the cool of the day". I wonder what he was thinking as he walked? The second is after the resurrection when Mary goes to see Jesus' body, but he is not there. She thinks that she is talking the the gardener and Jesus says her name and she realizes that she is talking with the Risen Lord. Can you imagine if you were the one that Jesus picked to show Himself to first? I wish that I could have been there to see that.

I think that Jesus loves gardens. I know that the loves to make all things new. So today's post is about gardens. It's no coincidence that the most beautiful time of year is Easter. Thank you Lord for being beautiful. 

"Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which not one had yet been laid."

John 19:41

Until  Monday... 

What a wonderful maker

Happy hump day! The rain yesterday was so nice. We needed it and it has brought a sweet coolness into the air. I saw this video today online. It is amazing and speaks of the Majesty of the Lord. I have to share it with you. The God who made each and every star and calls them by name is the same God who gave himself so that you could know him intimately. That is truly amazing. 

“There is no one like the God of Israel. Who rides the heavens to help you, and in His excellency on the clouds.

 Deuteronomy 33:26

"He counts the number of the stars; He calls them all by name."

Psalm 147:4

Until tomorrow...

Striped for us

Hey there everyone! Shepherd has been sick all week, but is finally starting to pull out of it. Way to go, Shep!  He felt so good he practically begged me to go to the antique shop today, so we went.
I've posted many times about stripes, but I just keep seeing more photos that I love and want to share. Enjoy!

"He was pierced for our transgressions. He was crushed for our sins. The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his stripes we are healed."

Isaiah 53:5

Until tomorrow...

Ode to purple

Happy Monday everyone! I hope that you all had a great weekend. It was beautiful here in Dallas. I am loving the Spring! And I love that it is Easter week. Each post this week will be dedicated in some way to a part of Easter. Today's post is all about purple, the color of royalty. All praise and honor to the true King, Jesus...the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world.

"They put a purple robe on him, then twisted together a crown of thorns and set it on him. "

Mark 15:17

Until tomorrow...

Cutie patootie

Happy Friday, yay! Here are a few pictures of some cutie pies with fantastic style. I love it when I see someone wearing an outfit put together with similar things in my closet that I would have never pieced together. Enjoy!

Have a fabulous weekend!
Until Monday...

Inspiration boards

Hey all! Today's post is all about inspiration boards. I used to have to make these for school projects and I loved it! I did one when I was decorating Shepherd's nursery. Here are a few that I have found around the web. Aren't they so...inspiring?

Decoration that serves a purpose. I like that. 

Until tomorrow..

Ten months

Good morning everyone! It is the most glorious morning. I have been spending some time on the porch with Lily and the Lord. How I love Easter time. I think it is my favorite holiday. Speaking of holidays, did you know that the word holiday actually came from the words Holy day? Food for thought.
So Shepipoo (as those who are close to him call him) is officially ten months old. He is getting so big and I am loving him more and more every day. Here is the cutest kid on the block, in my opinion of course.

Here is Shep with his tree. Look how pretty it is getting! Hope our landlord likes it!

Until tomorrow...
