The Good Things in Life

One  of my favorite new blogs is A Little But Funky.  She's got a super cute etsy shop.  She is playing a linky game about listing all the good things in your life.  I love this because I am so grateful for my life and all the good things I've been blessed with.

Logan surfing









Logan has been surfing since he was 5.  This has been such a great sport for him.


Sissy







Ava is following in his footsteps.  I am so grateful that we have the priviledge of staying at the beach for a whole month.  We are creating memories that the kids will carry with them forever.

Aunt mary









We are so lucky to have such a loving family.  Aunt Mary is stealing some sugar.

Mommy 31 weeks









No, that is not a beached whale that washed up.  That is me 32 weeks pregnant, and I am grateful that the baby is growing and we are both healthy!

Carson and mike







My stepson Carson came out for a few days.  Can you believe that he'll have a  little brother 18 years younger?  Isn't my hubby cute?  You can't tell in this picture, but he has the same beautiful blue eyes as Ashton.

Although I haven't gotten around to photographing things properly, I've had lots of time to make some new art.  My creative juices are flowing.  I'll post some good pix soon.

Before









This may look like a big mess to you, but it is looking like a clean slate to me.  While we are at the beach, we have had a new roof put on and other things done to update the house that were totally necessary.  This room was painted a dark terracotta, and I am ready to work with a bright clean palette.  This carpet is being pulled up next week and wood floors will be installed.  YAY!  We have terrible allergies and getting rid of the carpet will help.

Wow, I feel like the luckiest lady  in the world.  Praise God for all of our blessings, and I hope you count your blessings today too!

Wow!! you look so cute in a bathing suit!! I never had the courage to wear one when i was pregnant!! check out my grateful things on my blog:)

You are ADORABLE in a swimsuit!!

And I can't wait to see what is under those frames...they look great!

You certainly do not look like a beached whale pregnant-you are one cute pregnant mama! I think it is so cool that your 5 year old surfs. My hubby grew up in Cali and never learned to surf and he regrets it. Little too late now that we're in TX, no waves here!

My ArtyGator

  • Portfolio_7_2
    I designed this 7 foot tall "ArtyGator" for the City of Sanford. Annheiser-Busch was my sponsor, so I modeled the gator with that theme in mind. It took approximately 150 hours to mosaic and grout the whole thing. His name is "King of the Red-Tiles".
