♥ lunch box notes & jokes. have been the highlight of my kids days.
they talk about them. tell them on the bus. and try to get daddy to guess the answers without giving him too much insight. (cause they know they can't really fool him :)
you can find a lot of them on my print board on pinterest or just search lunch box notes on pinterest. i laminated them so they would last longer ... along with some bible memory verse cards i found on pinterst too.
♥ love this album. go. listen to it.
♥ gray heart sweater sunday selfie

♥ magnetic alphabets ... should i spray paint them? was thinking gold ... ?
♥ we glory in our sufferings. 
because we know that suffering produces perseverance. yes it does. romans five. five
happy birthday daddy :) we celebrated hibachi style ... it was a first for two of us
♥ C is for Cookie. that's good enough for me




♥ hi. i'm jaime. i make pretty things for a living.

♥ so i found these 12 days of Christmas old school glasses and thought they might be cute on a shelf or mantle with some pom pom or cupcake paper flowers in them? right? 
but day 3 was missing

she's like a blood hound. she spots, smells, finds things from miles away. she's my bestie.

  1. Love all this! Would you mind sharing sometime about your journaling?? I love how beautiful it always looks, but it is clear that you make it (and God) a priority and are able to connect in that way. I understand if it is too personal, but I would love to hear how you are able to make the time and make it such a worshipful thing. Thanks, Liz.

  9. Oh my goodness... So I just saw those Twelve Days of Christmas glasses and I had flashbacks of Christmas's past. My grandmother had them and brought them out for Christmas dinner. We would all start to sing the song and you had to sing the part of what you had on the glass. We would all sneak in there to try and trade cups so we wouldn't get the first day and have to sing a lot. We all hated those glasses but they definitely made some memories.

  11. Spray paint the alphabet gold? You bet! What a great idea. I can see that photography is one of your many creative gifts. You have a wonderful eye for putting things together in an aesthetically pleasing way.

  12. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE your blog! It is always a big slice of happy in my day :). I was wondering, is that your planner under the movie and also under your journal? If so, what kind of planner is it? It seems like a very manageable size and looks cute from the little glances. Also, I'd love to hear more about your Sunday night routine. I really loved your post on your coupon binder so I'd be curious for a little more info. Thank you so much for sharing your gift and beautiful spirit with us! :)
