Grati-Tuesday

I am like 110% grateful for peaches being on sale, but I have something else that I have been very grateful for lately. I have a calendar in our room that Dallas’ mom gave us last Christmas, and I always forgot to change the month.

Thankfully, I had enough fabric left over to try one more time. As you can tell, the second attempt turned out much … Continue reading “DIY Striped T-Shirt”

I’m also grateful for a husband who encourages and pushes me to become better at the things I want to be better at. Yesterday I was talking to my coworkers and we got on the subject of Netflix. I told them I … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”

Grati-Tuesday

Today I am grateful for the close relationships I have with my family now that I am older. In high school I wasn’t a real barrel of fun when it came to hang out with my family. For some reason, being around my family made me irritated, and I just could not stand them… Thankfully, I have grown out of … Continue reading “Grati-Tuesday”
