Waiting on Spring.

This is the time of year I 

really start to yearn for Spring.

We still have snow on the ground here in the 

Midwest.

And with more snow coming

I really need to bring a bit of Spring inside.

I hope the real deal will be here soon!

 Weekend finds

 Christmas break is over for my kiddos

and so are my lazy days.

I am ready to get back into my routine of life.

I wanted to show you a few things I picked up over the weekend.

I have been doing a lot of purging lately, so I have been trying to not bring new things in, but I couldn't resist this bird cage!

 I have been looking for a lamp to replace one that had broke.

I found this one and knew it was perfect with all of it's ruffles!

And finally I picked up this cute little jars

from Target.

I had bought a similar one from anthro a while back.

I have been looking for something to store all of my cords for my computer, phone ext.....

these work perfect.

Have a great day!

Saturday morning coffee

 

Good morning,

I am up early this morning enjoying some 

quiet time and sunshine.

My kids are going to be going back to school on Monday after being home for Christmas break.

I alway miss them,

 but I am ready to get back to some routine and structure in our lives.

I want to clean, clear out, and organize.

I want to simplify our lives!

I have really been craving that lately.

 This does not come naturally to me especially when it comes to my time. 

 When I am not organized with my time,

the important things in my life do not get done.

I spend more time on the computer than I do with God!

When I start my day out in his word and prayer everything in my life is more focused on what it should be focused on.

I don't want to be so bogged down by the stuff in my life that I am not able to enjoy all the blessings!

So this month I am going to try to clear out

my mind, my closets and my time with clutter,

 and focus on the things in my life that really are important!

 Christmas around my house

I use a lot of pastels 

I also like to use urns and greenery to bring the outside in.

Our tree is decorated with ornaments we have collected through the years.

I added some paper garland,

and some pom poms.

My mantel is decked out in mercury glass.

My mother-in-law bought me this beautiful bird garland.

It's perfect on my mantel.

 Only 5 more days until Christmas!

I better get wrapping!
