So, today begins blogging 1 0 1! Not really sure if I am going to be any good at it, or who will read it, if any one, but I am excited to share my love for my family and our accomplishments and growth with each other, ourselves as people and as a family, and with god.
Me and my husband have began to really embrace the love god has for us as people, a couple, and as a family. It all started last year when my husband's cousin welcomed us with open arms to their church, in hopes to relinquish hope and courage in our marriage and with his self search. GOD BLESS THE CORRIVEAU'S because it truly was a blessing in disguise.
I must say I was quite apprehensive at first, not really sure how to feel about it, but I knew I wanted to embrace the change to be supportive of my husband and to not let fear get in the way. Then, some months thereafter my husband received his bible from his dear friend Erik and shortly after that I felt in my heart it was time to by myself one as well. We finally owned our own bibles! It has taken us up until now to really start embracing the change of excepting the lord in our lives but let me tell you something, It has been the best change I could have asked for. All you non believers out there, please listen to me...if you are struggling with life's negativity, or addictions, or just are feeling lost, I promise if you put your trust in god and let go of the fear for just one day, you will feel so liberated and it will change your life, if you are open to it that is :). I am so glad that I was.

Our next step will be to introduce children bibles to the kids. Easter is less than 1 month away now and I am so excited to introduce them to their own come basket time! Which reminds me...you NEED to see what I came across on Pinterest a few days ago. I am so excited to do this this year I can't start soon enough!
My favorite thing about these is they are reusable! No more buying new baskets every year, and they are personalized. Can't get any cuter than that! So if you are in the mood to take on a DIY project this easter, head down to your local Hobby Lobby or craft store, buy yourself some tin bins and sharpie paint pens and get to work!
One other project we enjoy together as a family on Easter is eggs! Also thanks to Pinterest, I am going to be taking on one more knew craft project this Easter; YARN EGGS! Looks super easy and it will be such a cute touch for a table centerpiece. Whether I fail or not is not the concern here, its whether or not Mod Podge will get more on my children than on the yarn! LOL. So hit your local dollar store, grab some balloons, yarn and stop off at the craft store to pick up some Mod Podge, and you are all set to go!
Let me know how you make out if you take them on...i'll be posting my success (or lack there of) once I am finished!
Till next time bloggers!

It's funny how God works in our lives to bring us to know Him. We are new to the church too so I understand all the emotion you're feeling!
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love the galvanized Easter baskets! How adorable!
Thanks Laura! That's my next project :) And yes, it is amazing how god welcomes us into his heart at any given moment. I remember the very moment I realized I wanted god in my life as much as he wanted me in his...and now, here I am. :)
