"Reborn"


This Painting I made for my dad.  He gave me the quote and I was very inspired by it.  This project was very spiritual for me.  I felt very close to my Heavenly Father while I was creating it.  My love for art grows more and more each day.  I am so grateful I am able to express my thoughts and feeling onto canvas.  

** Sorry for the horrible pictures, the colors pop way more in person.**

My love.

Anyone who knows me, knows I love anything to do with decorating.  I love changing things up in my house.  I have slowly been collecting things to add around the house.  Almost everything I have is from a Flea Market, Thrift store, Anitque store or I made it.  I love challanging myself to find things that are inexpensive that I can spruce up.  Here is an update of the house.  




I got this lampshade at Target for 10 Bucks!  Love it!
I have been collecting silver pieces, I love them tarnished and aged. 

This is my new dresser.  I got it off of craigslist for 60 bucks!  It is so beautiful and exactly what I was looking for! 


Big Boy Hair!

Well, It was about time to cut Parkers hair.  Instead of doing a trim we decided to cut it more so it could look like a shorter version of Daddy's hair.  Our Friend Jordan cut it for us late last night.  I wish I got pictures of it.  Parker was so funny.  We bribed him to sit in the chair with a lollipop.  By the time Jordan was finished cutting, the lollipop look like a hairy creature.  He looks like a little man now.  I got chocked up when I saw his baby hair all gone.  I guess we all have to grow up sometime.
