A Child's Prayer

I love to hear my children pray.  God listens to everyone's prayer even the little ones' prayers.

  Haylee's prayer tonight 

"Dear Heavenly Father, I am so thankful for all the happy things in my life, I pray that my brother Shae gets better so he can play with me, I pray that his fever will go away.  I love you God. Amen."  She is so sweet, love her Big prayer for her brother.  You know that they love each other when the other one is down and not feeling so Hot and they pray for them to be better!! Hope everyone is staying healthy and enjoying the beautiful spring weather!!! & praying my little man will be well soon to enjoy it himself :) 

Love, Jess

This is one of my favorite pictures of Shae, I don't take pictures of my kids when they are sick, I'd rather them see pictures of themselves when they are the most happiest!  Get feeling better Shae!

Spring Tree Craft

I love spring time, 

the beautiful weather, 

green trees, flowers blooming, 

and the kids get to play outside, 

(makes me happy).  I decided to 

do a little craft with the daycare 

kids.  

It was a simple, cute craft. 

They painted their arms brown 

and placed them on paper to

make a tree.  

Then, they collected little purple

flowers off the tree outback 

and pasted them onto their trees.

  Here's their finished trees. 

Way to go girls!!

Spray Painted Old dresser

After my test today, I should have spent more time studying instead of home improvement jobs.  But, when my husband decides he wants to do one of  my Honey-To-Do jobs, that I have been wanting to do for a while, I jump right up to help.  I have been wanting to spray paint this old dresser of Shaes'.  The color doesn't go with the theme of his room.  It was a nice hand me down from my brother.  So, that was our project we worked on today.  Bob gets most of the credit, I went to the store and purchased the items to spray paint and he did the labor :) I have a great guy!! So this sideways picture below is Shae dresser before.  It has definitely seen better days. 

 Sorry the picture is sideways, the best I could do. 

 This is what we found behind the dresser after we moved it, a gummy bear.  Don't know if Shae was saving that for later, Hope not!!

 Here is the finished dresser and night stand. Bob used a aluminum color spray paint, and black for the top.  I bought new knobs at Lowe's. 

Haylee & I went to Hobby Lobby to get some decorations to match his skate board theme.  I want to go back and get the rest of the letters to his name & hang them on the wall.

  The dresser looks great now, I love how it turned out. 

& my poor Shae has came down with a hi fever today. I hate when my kids are sick.  

Painting Metal Cabinets

You can call me crazy, but I want to paint our metal cabinets.  

I found this website retrorenovation that shows exactly 

how to do it.  With the help of my AMAZING husband I think 

that we could get them done.  So check out these finished painted metal cabinets. I love the metalic orange color.  

But, I am debating between that color and a chocolate.  Our kitchen is painted a green color. What color do you think would look best in our kitchen?!?

 The picture above is a metallic orange.  Bob hates this color, he doesn't think it would match the kitchen.

 This color above would probably be my pick, maybe a smudge darker. 

The top picture looks a little to dark, but I think a little bit lighter than this would give the kitchen a whole new look.
 This is the color of our kitchen.  The cabinets need some TLC to say the least. 

Which one do you like the best?

Card made by Haylee to Me

My little girl is always making cards 

and notes to everyone in the house

Well, everyone but her brother :( Poor Shae.  

She made Bob & I both cards today.

She brought mine into my room while I was

watching my statistics lectures,(which was dreadful).

Here is what the card said that brightened my day:

Me & my mom go shoping that is the Best part.

I lik go shoping at the mall.

I love going with my mom.

I love my mom she is the Best

Mom in the world.

My mom is realy good at school.

the end. 

Love Haylee

Well Haylee, I think I am the one that

has the Best girl in the world!!! She

is just the sweetest little girl I know. 

My Kids know How to Party

Today was just beautiful outside.  We had a great day spending time with the kids outside.  Bob grilled some chicken and the kids decided to dance on the back porch to the radio.  My kids are so much fun, I can't imagine not having them in our lives.  Love capturing moments like these to laugh about later!!
