5 Week Newborn Photos

I finally found the time to post the rest of the Newborn pictures! She was actually 5 weeks old at the time, but I knew my cousin who is a photographer was going to come visit at the end of March. So I just took her 2 weeks pictures myself, then when she came to visit she took the professional pictures! I was so super happy with how they turned out!! It is so crazy how big she looks in these! Shes growing like a weed!! Hopefully soon I can finally post an update on Savannah!

Enjoy the photos!!

Spring Decorations

I have been wanting to join Lianna Knight over at Growing Our Own Garden, she did a post on Easter decor! She inspires me with all her decorating skills!!

My kitchen project is almost completed. So I was able to start decorating, of course I brought out all my spring/Easter decor. It's not much, but I love every piece that I decorate with.

Kitchen Table
I am giving you a sneak peak at how the Kitchen will look with the drawers back on, of course with the old hardware on that I spray painted.

I have so much to update you on! My kitchen project was worth all the hard work that I put in. I cannot wait till you see the results!!

I can tell that it's Springtime, because I am busy!! I love the fresh air, and the green grass that is popping up!!!

Today I feel blessed that Spring reminds me of the sacrifice my Lord and Saviour made for me.

Lori's Kitchen Project-Sneak Peak

I thought I would give all my readers a sneak peak into my Kitchen project reveal with some before and afters!! I was able to finish so much of my project this week. The work in the kitchen is all done, I am working on finishing up the drawers and the doors that I have in my basement. So with the work in the kitchen completed, I decided to spring clean it while I have everything out anyways! Let me tell you, when I walk into my kitchen now it feels like a breath of fresh air!! I am in love, and it doesn't even have any doors yet!! I will go into more detail later, but for now I just want you to imagine my freshly spring cleaned kitchen, with fresh new paint on the cupboards, the windows open with a fresh spring breeze blowing in, the smell of Spring in the air and of course music playing in the background...wait... you don't need to imagine you can have a glimpse!!

(my favorite part of the "new Kitchen", I love how the black blind goes with the new paint color)



Wasn't it just a breath of fresh air?

I love my new kitchen so much, it feels so much brighter, so much cleaner and so much more updated!! I can't imagine how I will react once it's all done, which will hopefully be by next week.


I would LOVE to hear what YOU think!!


Do you like the Antique White color?


Today I feel so blessed that the paint color turned out to be perfect for me. I was SO worried about that.

Scrapbook Fever

I have been so excited to get my scrapbooking started once again. Yesterday I got all of my stuff together, set up a little table in the living room and got ready to scrap my little heart out. I was not able to get a lot done, so I am ready to get lots accomplished before the week ends.

This is my "perfect place to be" right now. How much better can it get!

I have been working on a scrapbook of our wedding, I have a small amount of pictures because my Mom's camera got stolen. So I only had a few snapshots, but I have lots done by the Pro's. I really need to get a scanner so I can show you all!

So here is an idea of what I have and will be working on.

After the Wedding I want to do our Honeymoon, and it is going to be a big, fat book because we took lots of pictures. Before we got married I started a scrapbook of Kevin and my dating years up to our engagement, I finished it the year after we got married. Now looking at it I am so glad that I did that, it is so interesting to look at. And it gets all my pictures organized, and easily accessible. So that is why I love to scrapbook.

I realized how much of my Mom's stuff I had been using, so tomorrow I wanted to go grab a few things at our local Scrapbook store .

I wanted to get some idea from you all:

What item could you not live without when it comes time to scrapbook?

I would love any creative ideas or any great scrapbooking blogs!

I feel so blessed to finally have the time to start some scrapbooking.
