tuesday coffee date!

its Tuesday...time for our coffee date!
(or tea or coke, whatever floats your boat!)

If we were meeting for coffee today, I would tell you that Im tired but thankful today.
Woke up to nurse Abigail at 6:30 then couldn't go back to sleep like I usually do,
so I got up while she kept sleeping, and had my new favorite breakfast...
granola with vanilla yogurt and sliced strawberries.
SO yummy.
I ate a bowl and turned some worship music on and just sat on the couch,
tried to just BE STILL.
Prayed for the day, for my loves, and for peace.
Also read Psalm 37 and was reminded of how God has promised us so much
as His children.


If we were meeting up today, Id also tell you that yesterday marked 8 years since
Parker asked me to be his bride.
best. yes. ever.
I cannot believe how time has flown, and how much we have changed and
grown over the last 8 years.
(we will celebrate 8 years of marriage in August, wow!)
I love remembering the day he asked.
It was magical and full of love.
I couldn't have imagined back then what a
beautiful little treasure we would be raising together.



Id also tell you that I have finally decorated for Easter and Spring!
I'm so inspired by the amazing ladies in blog land...
I have so many ideas and desires to try soon!
I am blown away by the beautiful decorating ideas floating around out there,
most of them homemade.
...but have to use what we've already got for now!


Did you know that I collected bunnies (anything bunny) when I was little?
I mean like, there are several large boxes of bunnies my mom just
passed to me from their attic.
cloth bunnies, paper bunnies, bunny statues, stuffed bunnies....
I was obsessed.
But it makes for some fun Easter decor.
I will share some more of my "personally vintage" bunnies on another post. :)


I also turned a silverware basket into an Easter decoration.
I just put some shredded paper in the bottom, candles on one side,
and pretty eggs on the other. it looks so cute and simple on my table.
hey, I'm trying. :)


Oh, and before we go, I have to tell you about Abigail's new favorite thing to do.
She loves to look at the duckies at the mall!
There is a tiny pond in the middle of the mall with ducks and turtles in it.
She is obsessed. Im wondering if we may be headed towards a collection of ducky stuff to go with all my bunnies.
Its the cutest thing...she goes crazy, pointing and giggling, even a little excited grunting.
The girl loves those duckies with a passion and everyone in the mall knows it.
We will go see them again tomorrow and I cant wait!


OK well I loved having coffee with you today.
Thanks for listening to me, whats up with you today?
Ive got a lot on my heart this week so maybe you can stop by again soon.
Be Blessed!!
