Finally

We decided on a color! Jason and his dad painted the trunk. I love how it turned out. It just took time for me to warm up to the idea. ; ) Thanks for all your thoughts. Yea for red!

Answers to some questions ~

*Colson's bedding is a combination of materials we bought and had made. The brown skirt with polka dots is from Zach's bedding. The yellow material on the inside of the bumpers came from Reese's bedding (it was never completed). We chose the bumpers' outside stripes for Colson. ; )

**My blog books are from www.blog2print.com. The price will differ due to how many pages in a book, but both of mine were approx. $100.

***Pics of the inside...


Happy June!

I love knowing that Colson will be here next month. So exciting. I really wonder who he will look like. It's fun to think about. ; ) I'm also lovin' this summer weather. Sun, swimming and snowcones!


Though your sins are like scarlet, they will be white as snow; though they are as red as crimson, they will be like wool.

Isaiah 1:18

Great choice on the red!! This scripture came to my mind today as I thought of you "May the morning bring us word of Your unfailing Love." Psalm 143:8, Be blessed today my friend!
