Idea Board

We are at a stand still on the master bedroom redo, more accurately we are lazy. It is time to sand and paint our dresser. We are stuck on what color to paint it, do we paint it a fun color or do we paint it to match our bed. It is a hand me down from Casey’s Parents. We also need to find knobs that we like, we do agree no brass. So instead of an update, I am going to share the inspirations I found on Pinterest.

Duvet Cover

The Duvet I feel in love with. There is a whole post behind how I tracked this down and found anĀ identicalĀ one at less expensive retailer.

Those are the options I love most for above our bed? Which do you like best?
The navy came from a canvas lampshade that has a navy border I got on clearance from Target last summer. The Robins Egg Blue from listening to the ladies on Twitter.

So how would you pain the dresser? We have a canvas print coming for a wall and a few other little tie togethers and then the big revel.

Heavy on my Heart- Tithing

Let me preface and say I am no expert.

This is just something that is extremely heavy on my heart. I want to give to my church. I know what I was taught to give. I don’t remember where I heard it growing up but the saying “Give till it hurts” is stuck in my head. Except the place we are at, sometimes even a small amount hurts. How do I make it where I can feel that I am giving yet not taking away from families needs?

So how do you feel about tithing? How do you determine how much you give?

When I had no other option.

Ian woke up acting as if he was still tired and after a few hours of meltdowns, no listening, and tears. Someone on twitter recommend taking a walk. So off we went. It was meant to be a short jaunt to the park not a 1/4 mile from our house. After we started I couldn’t think of stop that soon. We went to the park about a mile from our house.

We didn’t plan to go that far, I was wearing flip flops and all we have is a sit and stand stroller but it was nice and we all came back in a better mood.
