shut it.

As a Valentine's Day surprise my super sweet

hubs installed the shutters that he

made for the front windows of our house...

It was such a GREAT feeling to drive up after work and see them up!

If you haven't seen the before pics..go check them out first!

So here are the AFTER pics with the shutters installed...

(Please avert your eyes from all

overgrown bushes, bare flower beds, dead grass, weeds etc...:)

and just enjoy the fabulousness of the shutters!

 

 

  

 Such a good feeling to have gotten this much of our exterior completed!

this happy little face popped out to greet us today...

I don't think he knows that it's not quite Spring yet!

p.s. see that blue porch ceiling peeking through from behind the vine??
 it's subtle but i couldn't resist a little pop of
 color for when people come up to the front door!

hope you all have a good rest of the week!

tulips and shutters.

I am totally loving the V-day tulips that my sweet hubs got me!

 It's so awesome how they continue to grow

and open up after they are cut and put in a vase!

My Valentine also gave me another awesome treat:

He installed the new shutters that he so craftily built!

A total surprise to come home to!

I'll share pics soon!

Hope you all had a lovely weekend!

baby charlee.

Three weeks ago my dear friend Jordan had to have an emergency C-section and

baby Charlotte Kate (Charlee) joined us 6 weeks before her due date.

At 3 lbs. 7 ounces she had to stay in the NICU and is still there, being

cared for and gaining weight ounce by ounce.

the baby shower for the "mother to bee" was this past weekend

 and it went really well. Mommy and baby

 received so many sweet things!

We had fun putting together the table of goodies...

We also did a blessing table for baby Charlee...



Also...I made a blessing for Charlee, printed it out on cardstock,

 and framed it so Jordan can hang it in her room...

 

There were so many precious people that came to the

shower to celebrate and bless Jordan and Charlee!

thankfully sweet little Charlee is doing much

better after three weeks of care and growth!

She is up to 4 lbs and should be coming

home in the next week!

I'm just so thankful for this sweet little angel

and can't wait to love on her some more!
