Patriotic Clothing and More

I was recently contacted by tipsyelves to review a couple of products. I have to be honest and say after looking at what they have to offer I did not need any encouragement. Yes, they have cute Christmas sweaters and yes they have cute college themed items but they have more. They also have a huge assortment of patriotic items. Of course I chose the patriotic items. I chose two items. My first item was a long sleeve t-shirt that my teen daughter instantly claimed. I also chose a cute patriotic hat. I have several other items that I cannot wait to try. Next on my list is the patriotic leggings and the jumpsuit. I would love if you took a look at tipsyelves and tell me what your favorite item is.

Hide and Seek

Haha it is not only mommy who is not left alone. Sometimes when big sisters play dress up with him for hours they try to disappear. And when they disappear Jacob goes on a hunt for them. 

Have I told you how much I love the doors and wood work in this house. It is honestly one of my favorite features.

Growing Up

What a amazing weekend. I cannot believe that my baby boy has graduated from high school and is now registered for college. 

My baby boy who struggled to learn to do the basic skills like jumping and talking. 

The day after graduation we had Michael's open house. What a amazing crazy day. We rented chairs and tables and planned a amazing outdoor party. Then the rain hit and then more and more rain. In the end it turned out wonderful. Half way through the weather cleared and they could get outside and play basket ball and have a bonfire. A friend came over and spoke to the youth. I truly feel any time youth are together the word needs to be heard. I am so grateful for the man who gave up his time to spend with our youth. 

So grateful for friends who helped when I asked. They helped with cookies and cutting up fruit. 

My friend Holly posted a picture of a pineapple tree and I quickly asked her to make one for Michael's open house. It worked amazing as a fruit tray. I can't wait to share how how she made it with you. 

I also can't wait to share my sons testimony with you. The last few months have been a whirl wind of amazing things in his life. But that is for him to share.

The Month of June

June is hard, June is amazing, this month has so much joy. 

You see four years ago we were blessed with two amazing little boys, we signed the paper work for these blessings on my brothers birthday. Well what would have been my brothers birthday. You see 18 years ago my brother was riding his bike and was hit by a car. He did not recover. We donated his organs. 15 years ago my amazing daughter was born. Four years ago my amazing father in law passed away. Each of these events have a amazing story of God's timing.

Where I Have Been

Dear Blog, 

     I know I have ignored you and I am sorry. I will be back soon. The last month has been amazing and crazy. My son graduated high school, my mother and mother in law visited, the farmers market started, our garden is finally in the ground and last night we had a baby shower at our house. I cannot wait to tell you all about these events and a fun new blog review that I have coming up.
