In Christ Alone!

Pictures coming soon! / Slow Dance!

     Alas, I did not win the summer picture contest. Oh well. I must admit the two who did win had great photos, very beautiful and special. And maybe next time I'll keep in mind that sisters and children are more lovable than dragonflies.  hehehe

     I am doing well. It has be a great week. This week we have been tackling the garage. We totally cleaned it out, swept the floor, washed the floor, washed the walls, dusted all the cob-webs, then painted the walls and garage door solid white. Boy did it look clean and sharp and new. WOW!

     Yesterday, we did some artistic work. I am excited to take pictures of our work and share them with you. We are converting our garage into our work-out room. Having a family of 12 it is still necessary to work-out and keep your body healthy, but the house just doesn't have room for all the equipment to be used properly and on a regular basis. And having a membership at some fitness club has proved expensive and impossible.  

     So, in an effort to create our own fitness/exersize room atmosphere we needed something. My Mom has a love for interior decorating, and her true joy is with painting. She has done some truly amazing paint jobs in many many rooms. But this room is different still. I'm not going to say anything else, until I post pictures. It is just something you have to see to understand.

     And now, I want to share a poem with you all that I always find so neat. I get this aproximately once every three months in a forwarded email from someone. And everytime I read it I am inspired. So without further ado, here it is.

     I hope you all have a great week. I know I am, and will.

     God Bless! ~ Stephanie

Hi there! I'm glad to hear you're having a good week! I've fallen very behind in visiting my blogging friends, so I'm taking some time this afternoon to visit a few. You've got me very curious about your new exercise room and what it looks like! I can't wait to see the pictures! :-) And speaking of pictures, your dragonfly picture is so cool. I love how sharp and clear and close up it is!
Have a wonderful day and I'll talk to you soon,
Ashley
