...In your presence is fullness of joy...

so many things go through my mind,

so many things I can't unwind,

so many things I give to God,

so many things I can not blog.

fragile, frail press on me,

fragile, frail is where I want to be.

in weakness he is strong,

this gives hope when things fall wrong.

by his grace;

a new song my life sings.

in his face;

a new heart my life leads.

stumble upon the rock I lean on.

stumble upon... joy.

nothing out of range.

nothing for my glory,

at the end of the day.

I can try,

I make it "me", but really?

really?

forward on

i'll sing this new song

the song thats written me today.

Forgiven.

and so the chorus repeats...

Master Redo

Kevin and I originally painted our bedroom a kaki/cream color -

This was Kevin's idea in the beginning...but this wasn't really our style.

Eventually, {shockingly} Kev started talking about how he wanted us to repaint our room;

YEP HE wanted us to redo it and bring it up to date with the rest of our house.

This makes me proud of him {ha!}. We both gravitate toward the same style and I love that.

He really does have a good eye for most things decor related.

So finally we got around to repainting our bedroom - we like it A LOT better.

No offense! I think tans and browns look AWESOME in other people's houses,

I REALLY do!, but for some reason Kev and I can't pull it off! We do a bad job at it.

It's not for us, we've tried it and it doesn't work. It seriously feels wrong! weird. oh well.

We love us some color, some white, some blacks, and lots of different grays. :)

Anyways, here are a few random shots of the room in progress.

We still need to put some decor up on the white wall behind our bed frame.

We have some canvases were planning to paint, but have yet to get around to doing it.

I also repainted our cheap $5 mirror from Wal-mart. It's amazing what paint can do. :)

{ using the same paint as the bedroom }

{ finished. I think the purple{?} took 4 coats.

The white is called something "frost" & it's pretty! }

{ I'll post more pictures after we add more decor }

NaBloPoMo Official Fail.

I have officially failed at this NMPM thing.

But when you work full-time, have homework

PLUS a trillion other things it makes it nearly impossible to blog. :(

The fact that I even get any posts up at all is pretty remarkable. :)

SO..

...a BIG thumbs up to the people who blog while managing crazy lives like I do.

seriously.

{I couldn't decide which thumbs up to give you,

soo you get 3 thumbs up!}

{Blogging has become a disappointment}

BLAH!

Now off to do homework.

Elle Mackenzie

Kevin and I were given the awesome privlege of taking pictures

of my good friend Jenn with her Hubby John and sweet little baby girl Elle.

Here is one of my favorites among many.

Thought I would give a sneak-peek before I post more.

{ still have some editing to do }

Which Edit do you like best?

.

. . Sleep .  . Homework done .  . That's all I have .  .

Except for this: 

"Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers 

in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity."
