I signed Mister up for a Build and Grow clinic at Lowe’s.  I thought it would be a great way to test his ability to sit still and follow instructions, as well as test my hubby’s patience… LOL. 

Here they are…

Isn’t that cute?

Be blessed!!!

As I mentioned in my Looking back, and looking ahead post, my husband Brian and I are enjoying the third year of our honeymoon.  As we approach our 4th wedding anniversary this month, I marvel at how fortunate I am to call him my husband!

For many years, I prayed that the Lord would enable me to be a Proverbs 31 wife.  I also prayed that the Lord would grant me a Psalm 1 husband. 

Psalm 1: 1-6 (NIV) says…

Blessed is the man
       who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
       or stand in the way of sinners
       or sit in the seat of mockers.

But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
       and on his law he meditates day and night.

He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
       which yields its fruit in season
       and whose leaf does not wither.
       Whatever he does prospers.

Not so the wicked!
       They are like chaff
       that the wind blows away.

Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
       nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
       but the way of the wicked will perish.

That’s my husband. 

Throughout our relationship, I have oft said to him, “I don’t know what I did to deserve you, but I am sure glad I did.”

When I saw the Fruit of the Spirit: Love by Melissa Daniel at ScrapDish, I knew it was perfect to scrap this sentiment.

Here’s a preview of the kit:

and here is the layout that I did…

I recently had the opportunity to play with the Larissa Kit, by Carola Mondini, from Scrap Dish. 

Here’s a preview of the kit (image is linked):

And here is the layout I did with it:

This picture was taken on November 4, 2009.  I will never grow tired of the enchanting smile that Sister wears nearly all the time!

I love photography, so I am pleased as punch to be hosting the January Photography Challenge over at Pretty Scrappy. 

For the challenge this month, I want you to either find or take a picture of an inanimate object (toy, book, recipe card, car, house, etc) that has special meaning to you or the person you are scrapping for, and then scrap the picture. Be sure to journal about the significance of the item. You may include the person that the item is special to in the layout, however, the main/focus photo should be of the object itself.
Here’s mine…

I can’t wait to see yours!

Please visit the Pretty Scrappy Forum to participate in all of our new challenges.

Be blessed,
