Breath of Fresh Air

I went home to Gulf Breeze, FL this past weekend to visit my Grandparents.  Shortly after we arrived I stepped out on the dock & was greeted with this site.

What a breath of fresh air for me to see Pensacola Bay & the sky airbrushed in colors.  Its always nice to remember where you come from.  I have been there atleast 3 times a year for the past 10 years, but haven't taken time to see the sunset.  It was a welcomed calm for me.

No Matter What, Kerrie Roberts

The end of 2010 has come with many challenges, from a sinking real estate market, learning emotional boundries, having a very sick Grandmother, and more.  Somedays are so mentally challenging for me that it feels like getting out of bed is a HUGE chore.  But I know that once I am out of bed and force myself into routine I find I feel better. I heard this song as I probably do every day on The Promise today and it really hit me.  I need to remember to continue to "Let God & Let God" .. no matter what the circumstance maybe presenting itself at that time. I know the Lord presents all of its challenges in my life because I can handle them.  I need to remember to trust in Him, NO MATTER WHAT!

I’m running back to your promises one more time, Lord that’s all I can hold on to, I gotta say this has taken me by surprise, but nothing surprises you. Before a heartache can ever touch my life, it has to go through Your hands, and even though I keep asking why, I keep asking why.
No matter what, I’m gonna love You, no matter what I’m gonna need You, I know You can find a way to keep me from the pain but if not, I’ll trust you, no matter what, no matter what.
When I’m stuck and there’s nothing else by myself, I’m just sitting in silence, there’s no way I can make it without Your help, I won’t even try it. I know You have Your reasons for everything, so I will keep believing, whatever I might be feeling, God you are my hope, and you will be my strength,
No matter what, I’m gonna love You, no matter what I’m gonna need You, I know You can find a way to keep me from the pain but if not, I’ll trust you, no matter what, no matter what.
Anything I don’t have You can give it to me, but it’s OK if You don’t, I’m not here for those things, the touch of Your love is enough on its own, no matter what I still love You and I’m gonna need You
No matter what I’m gonna love you, no matter what I’m gonna need you, I know You can find a way to keep me from the pain but if not , I’ll trust You, no matter what, no matter what. I know You can find a way to keep me from the pain, but if not, I’ll trust you, no matter what no matter what no matter no matter what

Modeling Session!

Back in August the boys decided it would be fun to do a modeling session!  Fun for me, as I love to use my camera taking pictures of the boys.  Here are some of the shots we took!

They are both so handsome and growing so big!  Time flies when you having fun.  I should also note that Trever has grown out of the jeans he is wearing in this pictures.  He has shot up an inch in the last month and has also gained about 15lbs over the past 6 months!  Woowzers no wonder we go through so much milk a week!

Diaper Bags & Acessories

Its baby central around these parts!  It seems as if I am always aware of 5 or more people having or just had babies between this past summer and next summer.  One of my girlfriends from when I worked at David's Bridal, Wendy Douglass, and I have kept in touch through facebook, email, texts, lunches over the years.  When I found out she was expecting a baby girl, I was elated!  Wendy is a wonderful woman and I value her friendship so much.  I couldn't wait to sew her something.  She sent me a message and requested the Folklore bag.  So I got to work gathering supplies, cutting patterns and making her the diaper bag & accessories.  The accessories are the diaper changing pad, wipes case & 2 burp cloths.

Wendy's mother, Joyce, will be the sitter when Wendy returns to work.  So I thought it would be neat to make her her own diaper bag and accessories.  I used a different bag pattern, than the one used for Wendy, but made her all the same accessories.
