I am sad to say that Daniel's mamaw passed away last night. She suffered a heart attack last week and due to a blockage in her heart, she had to have a stint put in Wednesday. The stint wasn't stronger than the Lord's calling on her life, and she went home last night. She is now reunited with her husband and I know the angels are rejoicing over her new presence.
On a happier note, I have planned a trip to see Jess in Alabama for her birthday. I miss her a lot but it will be great to go visit and spend some girl time together. I can't wait to see my sweet Jeanie bug either. She is growing up so fast! (Jeanie is Jess's daughter....I was there when she was born and can't believe she is now in pre-school!).
The long awaited weekend is here once again-what are your plans?

Weekend Madness
Last weekend flew by! I find myself eagerly anticipating every weekend and then they go by so quickly. Friday night we had family night. We decided that we are going to make this a weekly ritual. It's so nice to come home on Friday after a long week and just put on pjs and relax with my best friend.
Saturday we woke up and my parents came over for breakfast. I made something simple and quick because we were all on the go that day. I made Sausage and Egg "Muffins". They are very simple and tasty. I will post the recipe tonight. I thought Aubrey would enjoy them since she loves sausage but she took one look and said "I want a real muffin". I guess these didn't meet her picky standards! Dad and Daniel spent Saturday cutting down trees in the front yard. Mom and I took Aubrey to the Gibson Mill Depot for the day. This is the biggest antique mall in the state. Heaven on Earth! I bought a few goodies for the house and we headed home. Daniel worked Saturday night so I spent the evening at my home spa and pampered myself.
Sunday Daniel and I went to church and then I headed to a bridal shower while he went to work. When I got home I decorated my new shelf that was bought the day before. Not too eventful Sunday. Here is my finished product:

I Found One!
I have been looking everywhere for a window to use as decor in my home. I have wanted an old, antique window with lots of white chipped paint. Every one that I have found so far in antique and thrift shops has been at least $40. I happened to come across a new small antique shop today and they had 6 windows! I found one that I love and it was $15! I cannot wait to get it hung up in my house. Here is a picture of one...it's not the one I bought but it is similar.

Third Time Is A Charm
I've given this a whirl two times before, but as they say, "Third time is charm" right? My old blog was titled Faithfully His and mostly followed my travels to an orphanage in Guatemala. So much has taken place in my life over the past year and is only going to continue to get better. I will try to post about my wedding planning, home renovations and decorating, yummy recipes, crafty ideas, and anything else that may seem interesting! So here we go.....
