Welcome!!

Megan got me hooked up with the "Tour of Homes" so it gives me a chance to share our home with you. It's not much but we love it. Already lives have been changed in a drastic way by the hand of the Lord within these walls. We will try to keep Lilly at bay and don't forget to grab some Chocolate Butterflies as you walk around :) (recipe at the end)



Come on in!




Welcome, dust off your shoes...





Bry and I love to fall asleep to only the light of the tree in our den, you will notice i don't have a tree topper... I can't find one that I am looking for. It's something special and I will know it when i see it, but this has been several years running now and I think Bry is tired of looking at a bare tree top!




My tree is mostly browns, silvers, blues and golds... but occasionally the rare colorful ornaments HAVE snuck onto the tree!


Stockings were hung by the bookcase with care...


These little houses I probably could have made, but I thought they were too adorable to not bring home to show my baby girl... one is a cottage and one is a church.


Lets be honest... this is really what's going down....


Welcome to Santa's Workshop!

I likes this tulle wreath hanging in my kitchen it was funky and went so well!

My nativity is all I have ever dreamed of... I love having it in our home. It's going to be an awesome way to tell our children about the great Love of Christ. I reminds me of just how MUCH God gave...



It's just not Christmas season without Shrinky Dink ornament making going on!





Have a VERY Merry Christmas full of God's presence and power this year!

Have I mentioned that you should come be my personal decorator? Your house looks like a Pottery Barn Christmas Catalog! Everything looks so polished and styled!
