….They are in demand!
People are loving the List chalkboards, and Michael has been filling the orders, and shipping them out.
If you missed it, a couple of posts back, here in The Homestead section, we blogged about a Prayer List chalkboard Michael had made for our home, after another little brainstorm I had. Scroll down to the earlier post if you want to catch the whole story, but the update is, people have been contacting us, and wanting to custom order one for their own home, or as a gift.
They don’t need to be marked as Prayer Lists, but that is all we have been selling so far. (Which is nice!) But they can also be ordered as a To Do List, Grocery List, Remember List, Notes, your family name…..anything you want!… Read More
"I'll Pray For You." – The Prayer List
November 8, 2009 By 8 Comments
I am sure I am like many others. I learn that people are struggling with a hardship, learning of serious illnesses regarding themselves or loved ones, have family members over seas putting their life on the line to fight for our country, leaving their families behind missing them something awful, and praying for their safe return. People with broken hearts, broken homes, broken dreams.
My heart is often breaking for them….with them. I want so desperately to fix it all for them….. to tell them it will be o.k. I feel small and helpless, in the face of their pain. So I give them the most powerful help I can possibly give them: HOPE. I tell them I will pray for them.… Read More
A Peek at Fall Decor Around Our Homestead

I say it all of the time; I’m no Martha Stewart, but I sure enjoy seasonal home decor! It’s one of the many things that put the ‘happy’ in our home for me. I love doing the decorating, and I love seeing it, but I don’t like much taking it down and putting it away. (Do chefs love to clean up? lol). I didn’t get to as much as I wanted to this year with my schedule, but it was enough for me anyway. If you love seeing the little things around other’s home as much as I do, then I hope you enjoy this small handful of photos.… Read More
If Our Walls Could Talk.
September 8, 2009 By 9 Comments
I’ve been looking at this area in our home, over the 3 windows of our sun room, since we’ve had the additions put on…..and I just hadn’t been able to decide what I wanted to do with it.
It wasn’t a matter of a lack of ideas. It was WHICH idea did I want to go with? Leave it as is? Mount some cool stuff on the wall? A shelf with some things that matter to us? Or a really long custom sized printed photo or canvas hanging?
After fearing I would never be able to decide, I decided to decide, and I could always change my mind at any time, and my loving husband would help me take care of the change. It was my way of looking procrastination dead in the eyes, with no fear.… Read More
A Little Love Around the Homestead

Not much to say tonight. But then, LOVE needs few words, right?
Can you see me?
Trio-Kids working on family valentines, after their school work today.
Is there any love for us, greater than our King’s?
We have some very simple family Valentine’s Day plans for tomorrow.
Now doubt I’ll have my camera out to play, along the way.
Wishing you all a Happy St. Valentine’s Day full of LOVE and lots of XOXOXO‘s !!… Read More
