Rooster #25

People often ask me what I have been up to and this is what I usually say...

BASKETBALL, BASKETBALL and you guessed it, BASKETBALL

That's whats up.

And I love it.

Every minute.

He would be super mad if he saw these pictures.  He doesn't like to be the center of attention or to be on my blog.  But, hey...I'm the Mom and I get to do whatever I want.  Anyway, he doesn't even read my blog.  whew!

I am so proud of Reid.  He has done such an awesome job this year.  I was so worried about his first year in high school, at a new school, new friends, and getting involved in high school sports.  He has proved yet again that he can handle anything that comes his way.  I am loving watching him grow into a sweet young man.  I am loving listening to his stories and the way he confides in me. God has great plans for this kid and I am so excited for him.  He doesn't like me to brag but I have to say that he is one awesome teenager.

I love that boy.

For reals. 

A peek inside.....Heather's House

I can't believe that its January 12th.  Where has the time gone?  I feel like just yesterday I put my tree up and now there is NO sign of Christmas in my house.  What-SO-ever.

Praise!

Now, my house is bare and I feel the need to make a Hobby Lobby and/or Marshall's Home Goods stop.  You know for the necessities.  Yeah, the necessities. Shhh...don't tell Troy.

Here are some things I have been doing around my house...its still a WORK in progress.  I have a feeling it will be that way for a while. 

A long while.....baby steps

Unless I win the lottery.

The entry way

Outside...my perfect coffee spot!

My entertainment center needs major attention.  ha!

My dining room....needs to be decorated.  I'm still not sure what to do in there.

Macy's room...she loves it!

 .

The game/media room.  We had the built-ins built and we love them. (hi Reid!) By the way,
this is where Reid lives.  I thought I was going to have a craft room.  Boy, was I wrong.

Reid's room.  We still have a way to go in there.  He was doing good to pick a bedspread.

Hey, maybe I should make this my craft room.

Macy and I spray painted this old picture frame to make her a chalkboard. 

She has loved writing on it.....I get all kinds of messages.  Love that girl!

I made this for the wall by my stairs.....

Our room.  :)   

We are in our new home, settled and loving every minute of it.  God has showed us so many things over this whole moving process. Some things have been awesome and some things have brought us to our knees.  There have been lots of prayers, lots of laughs, a few tears, lots of hard decisions and more stresses over picking colors of walls, floors and cabinets than I ever knew possible. Seriously.

I just want to say more than anything that we are so thankful.  God has blessed us abundantly.  We will praise Him all the days of our lives.

.......and just for a good laugh!  I love these guys! 

 When they are together there is never a dull moment.

Troy and Will....brothers at heart.

Happy 2012!!  Love, peace and God's blessings to you......
