Cute porch decor.

I will have to add more photos when it isn't raining outside! I have two wicker chairs, with some cute pillows. 

Remember earlier this spring or winter (can't remember when) I had mentioned we have some exciting happenings for this year? Well, they are here. I'll post more details as they come. God's opened exciting doors for us!

Were coming up on our 2 year anniversary! So much to reflect on. We really haven't been together that long. some days it feels like we have always been together and other days it seems we just got married. haha ... God has truly been with us every step of the way. Although there have been times just like anyone else has had, where we have asked "why" or "where are you God?". Turns out, He is ALWAYS there... just sometimes during the storm- all our little human brains can see is the clouds and storm.. not the calm afterward. But, He is always there.
     
3 months after we were married we found out we were pregnant and due right around our 1 year. Things moved "fast" I guess most people would say, but we look back on everything we have done together and wouldn't change a thing. This little boy of ours is seriously the most precious treasure EVER to be entrusted to us. We pray constantly that God will direct his steps, into a Godly young man. Also that his parents will use their heads wisely with him :).
We got married, had a baby and bought a house- all in a year!
  Needless to say- life always has its storms and trials. But if I have learned something in the past 3 years, its that God is good ALL the time. And just when you start to think "Where are YOU GOD?!" He always shows up, its just our brains don't always see it. Cuz were human and God is God!
 My sermon is finished now :). I just feel so reminiscent of the last few years for us, and truly see God's handiwork throughout all of it.

This reminds me of a scene from The Wizard of Oz... but really... God is an Artist! (taken from our farm. We've got some incredible 360 degree views here.)

Details

Just a few shots of our new little nursing/sitting/mostly for nursing area set up. 

Love the modern mix with a little bit of minimalist/eclectic.

My mom made this pillow with the burlap runner! Adds that Romantic prairie finish to the couch.

These pillow cases were used in our wedding. LOVE that 99% of the decor from our wedding, can and IS incorporated into my everyday decorating for our farm.

Cynthia Rowley throws never disappoint. 

I needed a little "va voom" to this corner. What better way than to add a little bit of sequins, on a quiet colored pillow.

Beautiful day today.

Spring happenings

Guys, Spring is here. So happy! We have lost no time in starting our usual happenings. Planting, cleaning, raking, playing in the sunshine.... meeting new baby farm animals... And even cruising around in my sisters "new" Vintage Stingray Corvette. (AWESOME).

So excited for warmer days ahead and big plans around here. Lots of good. 

Also, two things very important for Spring and Summer... SWEET TEA (home brewed of course.) and SUCCULENTS! Or- chicks 'n hens. You choose. 

Either way. Seems everything about this time of year is perfect. 

Resurrection Sunday

Our hearts are so full from yesterday. It was such a beautiful day of God and family... loved all of it! Also thankful we could have it in our home, with our little man helping us. And let me tell you-- he did help. In his own "way" haha.... 

had some stuff happen to my first ham and meal i made on saturday, so ended up having to re make all the food again (ugh) but we made it. 

all the photos of nick and i from my phone and he's making a goofy face in each pic...

xo 

Stay Tuned
