Sisters

Way too cool - :D  (above picture)

Ummmm, look at the camera......

Stay tuned for the "project" that is happening with these adorable pictures. :D

What a weekend....

Some friends called us and said they were done canning tomatoes, but there were still a lot left to be picked, so we could have them if we wanted to pick them.  So off we go to pick tomatoes.

 

 We made a donation to the school and used their huge stoves and had about six burners going at all times. :)  We got the whole family involved.

After 14 hours of canning - 7 hours one day and 7 hours the next

Grand total = 71 quarts!

I'm smelling a lot of Chili, Spaghetti, Lasagna, Veggie Soup etc.......in the next year!

Then we had a family baseball game.  Miss Ashlyn decided it was not a priority in her game to wear her skirt, but it was to wear a bonnet.  What do kids THINK?  That was short lived, but I couldn't resist this picture of her batting the ball on Keith's glove - and look at Keith's face......

*Note: No members of the family were injured during this activity*

Also, we have a little hen that has decided to sit on her eggs.  We are very excited about that. :)

Thanks for stopping by.  We LOVE hearing from you. :)

A BLESSED week in review

We were very blessed last week!  I'm sharing some of those blessings with you.


A friend sent two boxes - one of the boys and one for the girls!!  One of the kids asked, "How did they know I needed these? (Jeans) :)  I told them that maybe Jesus told that person.

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your kindness!!

Then my brother and his family came for a family reunion, but stayed with us over the weekend and we got to be with them when they were here - what a blessing family is!

Checking out piglets.

Kittens!

Then, our uncle shared his corn with us and we spent HOURS putting up corn - 120 pints to be exact!

The MR. & MRS! :)

And then, we had a note in our seat on Sunday saying that plans had been made for Thursday night that involved us. No name, or details were given.
Thursday night came and in came our friends, Eric and Heather with Pizza, Doritos and Pepsi for the kids - and Elise to babysit them and they said we were to go with them.
So off we go to Red Lobster!!  We had a very enjoyable evening with them.

THANK YOU, ERIC AND HEATHER!!!!!!!  That was so thoughtful of you!

Lastly, two weeks has come and gone and it was back to the Orthopedic for Kristyn's arm.  She had asked us to have special prayer the night before that her cast could come off.

Just got the news - "It's coming OFF!!!"

Waiting to see the Dr. before heading home again.

One happy girl!!!

So that has been our week! 

Have you been blessed this week?  I'd love to hear about it. :)

A new Adventure for me...

I have something VERY exciting I want to share with you!

Lilla Rose!

Have you ever heard of them?   Okay, well, let me introduce you.

Lilla Rose is a company that makes beautiful hair things. :)

Hair pins
Hair sticks
Hair bands
Hair holders of ALL kinds

See banner at bottom of page!

I have decided to become a Consultant, so now I get to share with all my friends this great treasure I found!

*Let me interrupt myself and say that some of you are probably saying, "Isn't she the lady that had the Hair Bow Shop a couple of years ago?"  And I'll respond with "Yes, that was me."  I had certain projects I wanted some extra money for, so I started my Hair Bow Shop.  Those projects were completed (Thank you if you purchased a bow from me. :) ) and my shop was quiet for a time and I was happy with that.  But I wanted to do something again.  I have some projects I have in mind for our family that I'd like to help with and saw this opportunity and couldn't resist. :)  It's a win/win deal for me.  They make it, I sell it. :)  Yes, I don't get 100% profit, but the time that I don't have to spend making them is more time I can be where I need to be.  I don't ever want to get too busy with "things" that I don't take care of my family, so this looked like a great deal for me and I hope you get to be part of it, too. :) Plus I LOVE their products and wear them daily.  So that makes it easy for me to be excited about them! *

So back to All Things Hair! 

Here are some of the beauties I'm talking about:


Hair pins!  Aren't they darling?

 

These little things are called Flexi-Oh's.  Basically, it's a beautiful pony tail holder. 

So the one part (silver part on the bottom picture) goes under your pony and the colored part goes over the pony and then clasps on the side, creating a beautiful new touch for your simple pony tail.

 

Then there are head bands - who doesn't love a head band and especially a beautiful one?

 

Do you like hair sticks?  Easy way to throw your hair up and yet look nice. There are so many options to choose from!

 

They have these very cool pins called You Pins.  This is no ordinary hair pin, it's THE super-woman  of hair pin.   You Pins are curved, so they follow the shape of your scalp.   I have an over-abundance of hair and let me just say only TWO of the lovely pins holds all my hair up....all day long....no headache!! SCORE!!

Last, but not least, is my favorite!  Enter Flexi-Clip!!

These beautiful clips come in 7 different sizes.  From Mini - (think Ashlyn's hair) to Mega - (think my hair)!!

Flexi-Clips are made with musical string, so they are very sturdy. (I've heard of one lady wearing hers for over 4 years and still going strong!!!)

They are flexible - (wow, is that why they are called Flexi-Clips? ) so they can bend around your hair!

 This is seriously the best thing I have found for our hair.  The girls can wear them in their hair even as a pony tail and it will stay put....and you know how active our girls are. :)

 Say you're left-handed? No Worries!  Lilla Rose offers a special order policy where you can order your clip and it be turned around for left-y's.  On most clips, it wouldn't matter if you wore it up-side-down because you put it in the opposite direction with being left-handed and all, but with some of the clips, it would be morbidly embarrassing to have your clip in up-side-down. :)~  (More clips on the banner below)

See? Same lady - different size Flexi-Clips - different hair styles!  


AND, I want to add that until tomorrow, Lilla Rose is having a SUPER sale!!!!!!
