Hello 2011 :) Hello Spring!!!
Even though the mornings are pitch black when my husband leaves the house for work in the morning - I have oddly been very excited for spring. Bah-hahaha! You say? SPRING?? lol I know - It's crazy... but it feels like Jon & I have entered a new season in our life. :) There are many reasons for this, and I am going to share just a few them with you... but perhaps I will expound on them in a later post.... as my time is limited this morning.
1. We are FINALLY finished our house :) I commented to Jon that it feels like we moved in this week!! Even though we have been living in our home for 16 months... we have completed it to the point that most people receive their house in when they purchase it!! lol... a few key things like trim, working bathrooms, kitchen cupboards, and deck railings were all missing when we moved in to our home last August! But I am happy to report that we are now down to weekend projects and summer yard landscaping ! woo hoo!! There fore =) I am really looking forward to SPRING!! and it feels like it is just around the corner!
2. With the major projects of our home being complete - I feel like we can finally stop looking IN at our own life, our own stress and begin to open our lives to care more greatly for others. It feels like this HOUSE has been a huge blocker in our life ministry to others - and we are excited to put it all behind us, stop spending every spare moment on a huge building project and start spending time with people again.
3. Spring Cleaning! I know it's an forgotten treasure - but I have begun to do spring cleaning, starting with our room this week - of course my Birthday Party this weekend has also spurred me on - but it feels good to just get the junk out of my life! - and out of our room!!!
4. Grass Pots - lol- WHAT?? Grass Pots? hahahah! I saw the impulse items at the till.. and I of course picked one up for each of the girls. It's a cute little ceramic painted pot, and like a Chia Pet, you put seeds on it, and it grows beautiful green grass! Yes - this silly little impulse item has me looking towards spring.
SPRING :)
I feel that there is also a new spiritual awakening in my life that, like spring - has begun to show it's face in little ways. There is a warmer breeze, buds beginning to peek out after the long winter. It's a wonderful thing to feel a change in this way - and I encourage you to look for signs of spring in your own faith - newness, fresh beautiful new things appearing in your life. What are they?
Well... I need to get off the computer and be productive now :) but before I go - here are some 'new' pictures of the girls. They were taken in November 2010.
