Wordless Wednesday

" In My View"

Sometimes i think i have the BEST view in the house!!!!.....or outside for that matter.....lol

"The Light"

down here in arkansas,, we had a solid week's worth of rain,,,,rain, rain, and more rain,,,,,there was even some flooding of homes, and businesses............and during that solid week of rain,,,,,the sky was grey, the clouds were thick........there were no fun mornings at the park,...there was no trampoline jumping for the kiddos either.....just lots of dark mornings,,,and listening to the rain and thunder........don't get me wrong,, i love thunderstorms....really, i do.......but after a weeks worth,,,i was craving the sunlight and blue skies as much as my hyper little people............and after that week's worth of rain,,,the clouds cleared out and the sun shined down on our little town again............on that day....i caught katie mae, who just recently turned two, trying to "grab" sunlight that was peeking thru the shutters in the bathroom........and later that day i found her in my bedroom playing in the sunlight on the carpet,, from the window........dancing around and with her shadow...............like it had been so long since she'd seen it that she was experiencing it for the "first" time all over again................i grabbed my camera and snapped a few pics........and as i was looking thru them today......i started thinking,, about how God is light.....and how, as christians, we "crave" light......or at least we should, right?.....it made me think about how much i loved basking in "the light" after i gave my life to Christ......and has challenged me in a way,,,,that i want to pass on to u all!....are u still "craving" Jesus, and His written word?......are u dancing in His light.....or are u standing alone in the darkness...?......if u are alone, and in the dark,,,,u don't have to stay there......Jesus says "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."....john 8:12

"Another Look"

 

This little outfit with the matching hat was one of my favs this season......i knew i was going to make the hat,, but wasn't sure what i was going to make to put with it at first.......until i found this mushroom fabric....perfect little garden nome look!!......HA......i LUV it.......the oufit is a apron front top,,,ties in a bow in the back,,,,,and then matching cord pans......and then of course u have the hat!,,,,,it's sold separate,, so u can buy just the hat if u want too!....and did i mention that it helps to have adorable models?.!...i believe that both of these pics are of Raylee....if i'm wrong on the first one,, forgive me.......i had 16 girls to photograph that day!.

"AS Requested".....

"Win a Free Spot on the Christmas Photo Shoot!!!"

ever heard of "scentsy"........i hadn't until about a month ago.......i bought a scentsy warmer,,,,,and i LOVE it!!!!! before i always used my lamp berger.....but i spent LOTS of money on the oil......and had to remember to cap it off so all my oil didn't burn out........but now that i have a scentsy,, if i leave it on and forget to turn it off,, it doesn't matter!...it's basically a little light that u plug in,,,with a low wattage light bulb....resting on the top of the lamp is a little bowl.....that u put scented wax cubes in......they melt and make ur house, office, or room smell divine!!!!........they have different sizes u can buy,,,,and they even have night lights!!.......since i LOVE them so much,,,,,i'm hosting a "scentsy" party on sunday at my house.......but the best part is,, u don't have to come to make an order...u can go to www.scentsy.com/millerme click on kristy and stacy's party....and place ur order there.............then,,,,,everyone who makes a purchase from the party will be entered into a drawing for a FREE spot in the upcoming Cloud Dust Christmas Photo shoot.......which will be the first weekend in december....!...and kristy ,, my creative bow maker,, is going to throw in a FREE made to match bow!!........if u place an online order make sure u email me and let me know......if u live somewhere besides magnolia area or texarkana area,, u'll have to mail me a few dollars for shipping costs to send u ur order once i get it!!! in cause u can't find my email,, here it is......www.cloud_dust1@yahoo.com
