Lazy Day

Hi all. I have to admit with all the developments that I have had here lately, I decided to take a lazy day. I stayed home. I was available for the mortgage companies, but I didn't do much of anything other than enjoy the girls. Maddie was Maddie. She showed me that she knows how to jump up and down by herself and that she can finally walk without help. She had been crawling a lot still, but now she loves walking. Kenzie hung out and had me make cinnamon rolls. We watched tv some today and I basically just chilled until Ryan got home from work. When he got home, we all had some family time and then I fixed dinner. Ryan then went to watch part of a basketball game(I think) with his friend Maxx. Kenzie played with his golf clubs and Maddie went to bed for the night. Tomorrow I will have to go to Charlestown so that I can charge my cell phone since the charger is in the new house since I was supposed to be there today. I also have to get the water cut on. I need that done so that I can shampoo the carpets. I have already done what I can up there until I get the water on. I also need to put mulch in the flower beds, more plants, clean out the gutters, etc. There is a lot of work to do when buying a home. I am doing more than the average buyer would though since the seller is my Mom. I know that it seems like I am complaining, but I am not. I am just trying to keep everyone abreath on what is happening. Hopefully next week, Pop and Ryan will do the roof. They are cutting us a great deal on it. Pop isn't charging anything exept for 1/2 of the price of shingles and he is putting it on for me. That is awesome! I can't think of anything else going on, but Beth S., thank you for the idea about painting the countertop and then varnishing it to seal it off. Maria, I am glad that you remember that I used to live in the same neighborhood as you. I was quite a loner when I lived there. I hope that we can all get together sometime. Please let me know if either of you need anything. I will do my best to help out where I can!
Love,
Dawn

The importance of connections

 Many times, we don't take the opportunity in life to think about connections. Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways.  Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be

Workout #27

So, here's the challenge. And above, you can see my entry. Kenzie had done crosswords or circle a words (I can't remember) with Gigi and I snapped a pic of her doing it. I absolutely love the design of the sketch we were supposed to use for this lo. It allows for a simple, yet stunning layout. It allows room for journaling as you can see that I added as well as plenty of negative space! And the breakdown goes like this, picture was taken from my collection, background paper was from k and company the best of k and company pad, the circles were literally just picked out of my scrap box. I didn't even look at the papers, i just did a random pick. the lettering was taken from an old sheet of alphas i had and I think they worked out great!!! Simple yet Stunning! Thank you Scrap Fit for the challenge.
