Burlap Door Hanger Tutorial

   Hey guys, it’s a 3 day weekend yay!! Last Friday I did not post and a surprising amount of people pointed it out to me that I didn’t. Well today I am going to show you why. I decided that I wanted to make a craft post but I hadn’t done any crafting since we moved, so I went to the store and got materials and started this Burlap Door Hanger. It is pretty simple and fun to make it took me about two afternoons. So lets get started.

Snickerdoodles

   Today I want to share with you a delicious recipe for snicker doodles.  They are a relatively simple recipe to mix together. I got this recipe as a wedding gift from hubby’s neighbors who are great friends; it even came with a lovely platter to put them on. Now this was my first time to make them and some did not turn out as well as I would have liked, but I know what happened so I won’t let it happen to you.

 

Isn't that platter pretty! Thank you Lisa, I love it!

Weekend Recap and Steak and Egg Burritos

   This weekend we went back home to visit the families. My sisiter is going back to New York for school and we won’t see her until Christmas break.  We took the wonderful hot mess of a dog we have and she got to spend time at her ‘grand parents’ while we got a break from her and went to hang out with my family.

Married Monday: Roles in Marriage

 Hey guys I am going to start making my Monday post about being married. I hope to make this a series that hopefully helps someone, but also just lets me talk about whats in my head and my experience as I grow as a wife.

  I want to start with talking about marriage and the roles of a husband and wife. Now let me start off by saying I am no expert or am even good at doing my role but I have researched a lot and have seen what the bible says on it.

Homemade Tortillas

   The other night we had tacos and as much as I love store tortillas I decided to try making my own.  I looked up a few different ways and found one that looked simple and pretty good. This is an incredibly easy to make recipe, with only 4 ingredients that you probably always have on hand.

Weekend Recap

Hey guys I hope you had a great weekend!
   We sure did we went into Little Rock to shop. I hadn't thought about it but I haven't been real just fun shopping in over a month! We found a mall, I didn't get anything but that never has seemed to be the point of shopping to me, I just was happy to walk around and see things. Then we went off to Bed Bath and Beyond which is one of my favorite stores. We finally found an art piece to hang on the wall that was on sale and we both liked, SCORE! We went to Texas Roadhouse for the first time and enjoyed it! Who knew they could make rolls better then Logan's, and the chicken fried stake was ah-maz-ing! Oh and I can not forget we got a microwave finally! Yes it's true we have gone over a month without a microwave, its possible but not my preferred method.

Bathroom Makeover Part 1

   This is a post that will have a few follow ups because the bathrooms in this house really needs some help. When we were looking for a place to rent we were pretty picky and didn’t want an apartment, we thought we wanted a duplex, but then decided without looking that we wanted a townhouse owned by the same company. We signed the lease then went to look at our soon to be new townhome, it was great and the kitchen was big and the rooms were huge. The bathroom though, wow was tiny! The storage space was good though big shelves above the toilet, and space under the little vanity.

Remembering to Pray for Your Husband

   Hey there friends! This has been a crazy week! I had to spend most of yesterday catching up on the cleaning that I didn’t do the rest of the week, including the mess that was the kitchen. Having this puppy has changed my daily routine a lot as well as my sleep schedule. She is the main reason my kitchen was not as clean as I like, with her ability to get her food around the bowl, dragging in grass from outside, and somehow getting water everywhere from her bowl. She also causes me to wake up twice in the night to let her outside, which is fine but she likes to play afterward and not just go back to sleep. So when I put her back in the crate she whines for a while after.
