So without further ado welcome to my little soiree and hello to all my blogging friends both new and old! If this is your first time to my humble little spot in the blogosphere then I welcome you with my favorite Teas (hot and cold) and yummies (sweet and salty), you will find these goodies throughout your visit so be sure to help yourself!

Now let me show you around… Oh but first I suppose I should introduce myself!

My name is Tiany and I reside in the Cajun State of Louisiana (GO TIGERS) with my hubby Troy. I am the mama of 4 boys, yep FOUR BOYS and I love every loud, messy, rowdy, chaotic, precious moment I have with them.

My boys are 7, 5, 3 and 1, we homeschool and have greatly enjoyed the journey thus far!

This is my blog where I share about our day-to-day happenings as well as my own triumphs and struggles as a wife, mother, teacher, Keeper at home and most importantly the daughter of the most high King! My blog is full of info so be sure to take a look around while your here!


Are you thirsty? Would you like some tea? Hot or cold? No worries, we have both!

I like to have a little fun on my blog by hosting Monday Meanderings, participating in the ever so popular Wordless Wednesday and sharing some hints, tips, tricks and recipes here and there as well!

So the cornball in me is coming out again in this SnT  video with not so good dancing and still I love it! To get the effect of how neat this is I think you have to watch it some 50 times as I have done! (Well kinda)

Anyone who has turned on the TV in the last month or so has had to have seen this commercial for the new IPOD. ( you can check it out HERE if you have not seen it.)  Every time I turn on FOX news this commercial comes on, CNN too for that matter!  It is not only the song that has caught my attention but this incredibly neat video, so here is the video in its entirety for your viewing pleasure!

 The group is "Feist" she is a singer from Canada, I am not too sure what it is she is singing about and I do not care much for her dress but its a creative clip nonetheless!

I think I like it so much because its just a fun song and a fun thing to watch, or am I nuts!?!? Ok dont answer that!

Please be sure to check out the prayer request I have up on my blog too!

Kelli over at “There Is No Place Like Home is hosting Show and Tell Friday. Mary is also hosting on her blog “Raising 4 Godly Men”, Hop on over to their sites and join in the fun!

This week I have decided to share a few of my favorite things….

My favorite movie, my favorite books and my favorite decorative quote!

“

Ah! There is nothing like staying at home for real
comfort.”
--Jane Austen

Jane Austen is one of my favorite Authors and though the books are always better then the movie, I have loved the A& E movie versions, in particular the “Pride and Prejudice” mini series. I received the “Pride and Prejudice” A & E special for my birthday about 8 years ago and I hope to get the DVD’s this year too!  My favorite books would be Pride and Prejudice once again and Emma, my favorite picture quote I found at Hallmark many years ago and it sits on my night table.

“

I hope to one day visit the Jane Austen Center In Bath, England , maybe for our 20^th Anniversary we can go back for a visit!

For any of you fellow Jane Austen Fans there is a wonderful new movie coming out in August, “Becoming Jane” you can view the trailer of the movie HERE. The movie has a beautiful soundtrack too! I believe a new made for TV series of all of her movies is also in the works! Stay tuned!!!

Now just for fun

…

Which Jane Austen Character Are You?

You are Eliza Bennett from Pride and Prejudice! Yay, you! Perhaps the brightest and best character in all of English literature, you are intelligent, lively, lovely-- in short, you are the best of company. Your only foibles are that you stick with your first impressions... and your family is quite intolerable.
