instafriday #20


writing out verses on this spiral notecard thing, and i love how it will keep them all together in one place for easy flipping through/memorization. though as i was copying them (from other notecards) i surprised myself by how many i already have memorized!


Reese never wants to dress up. yesterday we were cleaning her room an found this cinderella dress. she immediately asked to put it on :) of course i obliged because she never does this. i loved it :)



we needed a family photo for my husband's job. they're writing about him in their quarterly magazine :)
[taken by melissa sniff, not with my phone, but i instagrammed it so i could put the filter on it, for something really cute i'll share with you in a few weeks]

made my own mocha powder. love it. i've been drinking a few cups a day

this is what no nap looks like- burrito on the floor

which led me to pack up the kids and drive 20 minutes to sonic so they'd fall asleep in the car. vanilla coke for me [though it'll be cherry limeade next time] and nap for her :) i'm tricky like that.


my inlaws got us a juicer for christmas. we use it all the time. this is the usual recipe:

how much do you love this printable? free, here.


happy friday! we have a much needed date night tonight :) which i may or may not be instagramming. my husband hates when i take photos of random things, especially myself and food :)

oh, also check this amazing giveaway alissa is doing. 
i'm offering a set of three prints, winner's choice. all my new designs are available!

  8. i love the flip notes of scriptures. i need to do something like that! and i've also put my kids in the car so they'd take a nap. it doesn't work quite as well on them anymore though. but now i want a trip to sonic!

  9. That family pic is amazing! You already know how I feel about the spoon, and for the record, my hubby doesn't get it when I take pics of random stuff either ;)

to wipe away your yelling

one of my favorite things to do in december is to drive around to see the lights. our neighborhood is huge, and we have some seriously awesome houses. one of them is our next-door neighbor, so we don't have to look very far it we don't want to. but at least five or six times in december i would stick the girls in the car and drive around our neighborhood to spot the best-decorated houses. one particular evening, as we were driving, i asked my three-year old if she remembered what was so special about Christmas. "it's when Jesus came to see all my presents!" that's when you know you're doing a good job, right? yeah, so i gently reminded her that Jesus came, in fact, to wipe away our sins. after a thirty second pause, she wondered out loud: "He came to wipe away your yelling?" straight.to.the.heart. "Because when you yell, that's your sin. and when i don't listen to you, that's my sin." yes, right again. i found
