For I know the plans I have........

So...

My days usually consist of waking up, driving the kids to school, coming home, coffee & internet, cleaning, laundry, errands, grocery shopping.... blah! blah! blah! for about 5 hours until I have to get ready to go pick the kids back up from school! 

So Now..... I no longer have to take the kids to school or pick them up! 

Ty can DRIVE!! Whoo Hoo!!

That means I have ALL DARN DAY LONG until after they get home from 

Football and Soccer Practice around 5:30! What the what? 

How can this BE??? 

10 straight hours of Home/Me time!! 

So I have plans, BIG plans to just do "My" thing.... create dolls! 

At my own pace, OF COURSE! 

So this might mean a few dolls, a ton of dolls or ONE doll a week! ha ha ha!! 

Only GOD knows..... 

My family ALWAYS comes first to me, always!  

So I maybe sewing eyes on at a soccer game 

or stitching a stitchery at a Football Scrimmage!!! 

As long as I'm moving forward, that's a good thing, right?

SO.... Stay tuned! I should have my etsy page up soon! 

Thank you all for being such wonderful customers!! 

lots of love & hope,

~A New Season of Life~

My oh My how things have change!!

Whew!!

Since this past Summer my life has been SO "Up in the Air" that I have not been able

to create anything because I never knew if I was coming or going!!

Yikes!!

But now we have recently moved from Mississippi

to Tennessee because of my husbands job!

Hooray!

So..... We are currently living in an apartment until our house sells...

and it's been fun!

BUT..... I am having sewing machine withdrawals! ha ha ha!!

I should have brought the darn thing! Dumb!!

So... have been a knitting & crocheting fool!

It's kinda comical.

I have ALL kinds of different little beanies lined up in a row!!

I'm thinking someone needs to hurry up and have some babies in my family!!

Ha!

One part of moving is going adventuring finding new and fun things to do:

~Nashville's Farmers' Market~

~Hiking at Bledsoe Creek Park~

~ Finding our Favorite Store in Hendersonville, Tn~

-The Finder's Nest-

~Exploring Neat Old Cemeteries ~

~And.. FUN at the Nashville Flea Market~

I must say though I am ready to be in our new home, all settled in

and watching the kids playing outside!

We are just praying our house in Mississippi sells sooner than later,

but know that God has a plan!!

I'm so looking forward to FINALLY start sewing

and creating again until my heart's content!

And starting our New Season of Life!!

Life is good!

~be blessed~
