Some favorites from the week!!


I have been on a crafty kick this week! I'm going a little crazy with the Valentine decor I have been making. I really enjoy simple DIY projects so I tackled a few over the past few days. I saw both of these projects on Pinterest...

{My project. I just used a heart shaped doily!}



And the other project...
Doily heart banner.  I actually bought some heart doilies already with the intention to make one!

{My Project}

I used plain white doilies and painted some pink with some paint that I already had! It was a really simple cheap little project!! 

I feel like Rowen has become a bigger little boy this week! It seems like he got much older overnight. Like I have said before, he loves life. He loves every little thing throughout the day. Yesterday morning we headed to Kroger to pick up a few things and when we were checking out a cashier gave Rowen a balloon. He was LOVING it! He had the biggest smie on his face and was hitting that balloon every which way! 

He absolutely loves balloons. This was by far one of the funniest moments in the past week! I loved watching him have so much fun with something as simple as a balloon. 

Brent and I have a new favorite dinner dish! It was super easy to make and tasted great. You should try it!! It was a Campbell's soup recipe: Chicken w/Sun Dried Tomatoes. 
 Here's the recipe and the instructions! We happen to like sun dried tomatoes but if you don't, I think the dish would be good with broccoli or even green peas. You could even leave the veggies out if you wanted to! 

Rowen has been giving "loves" aka kisses to his animals lately and his parents :) It is by far the sweetest thing he does!! I asked him to gives some loves to his cow yesterday and....

I just about died at the cuteness!!

And like I mentioned a few days ago, I am reading through the book Jesus Calling. Yesterday's page was a really good message.

..."but I read your thoughts continually, searching for evidence of trust in Me"...."good thought choices will keep you close to me."

Happy Thursday!!
