The Townhouse Tour: The LIving Room- Getting Closer!

This is going to be picture overload but people have been wanting an update on my living room! It's not quite finished but it's much closer than it was when I moved in! Above is the view when you walk in the front door. As you can see I HAVE NEW COUCHES!! I was so excited to get rid of my old country style and get some nice suede microfiber neutral couches! and they are soooo comfy!!
 I still need some more lighting in my living room. Working on that.
 I am most excited about what I did tonight! Being a Piano Teacher I have lots of kids in and out of my house, waiting on their siblings, ect. I got the great idea to use an old end table and make a kid friendly play station in an empty corner of my living room!
I was pretty proud of myself! Snuggelmuffin is donating the use of his CAT truck to all the little boys and girls.  And let me tell you, it's gotten some use out of it in the past few weeks!
 I loaded it up with lots of goodies I have had from babysitting, ect..
 On the bottom shelf are books. Most of all which I read as a child!!! On the top we have coloring books, and construction paper and sketch pads. Along with crans, colored pencils, and two kinds of WASHABLE markers! (I may not have kids but i'm not stupid!) My infamous foam swords made the cut, as well as a mini etch a sketch, a fuzzy ball (which should really go in the dump truck with the rest of the balls) some pom poms and a Purdue Bear. I was so proud of myself! I can't wait to see what the kids think!
 Sorry, back to the tour. Here we have the loveseat and Artwork courtesy of the Great Katie Marie, and a clock, because I like to know what time it is. At all times. HA!
 Here is a shot from standing in the doorway as pictured in the previous picture.
 My new gloriously comfy sofa! I have plans for a big artwork piece behind the sofa, so stay tuned!
 Shot with the tv armoire
 I'm also looking for a new coffee table. I do not like mine. Hoping to find a dark wood one. I'm thinking of checking out the surplus and salvage place here in town!

 And a long shot. because I love them.
 As you can see this area is struggling a bit.
Final shot! Props to you if you actually made it thru the whole post!!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

  Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

Life in Phone Pics

 Can I just say how much I appreciate the fact that my new phone takes so much better pictures than my old one?! I have been using my phone for almost all of my pics! And bonus, no purple hair! Above is a new dessert I made. A Smores Cookie Bar. It was yummy. I had some and then realized I would eat the entire thing if I kept it. So I gave 90% of it away to my students. This just cracked me up. Last weekend when I was elevating my feet I obviously had the lights off and yet my toes were so neon pink that you could still see them in the darkness!  My toes weren't the only thing pink on my body. My sunburn was of an epic proportion. now it has started to peel. Everywhere. Even my arms. yuck. I'll spare you from that! Oh well, at least my hair looked cute here!  Yes, I am really showing you a picture of my cabinet. Last night I decided to totally move all but one of my cabinets. Erm. or rather the insides of them. My dishes and glasses used to be in th...
