Two Weddings and a Lesson

Wednesday, September 5, 2012



Sometimes in the business of daily life its hard to remember the sacred. I was reminded of the sacredness of marriage this past weekend when my husband and I attended two weddings. Both were very different but both gave me a sense of conviction that I needed to hear.



Our life has become so busy with a new job and little baby. Laundry, to-do lists…etc. that I kinda forgot what I promised my husband on our wedding day. Back then I didn’t really think about the gravity of the words that I was promising before my friends, family, and God.



Some things I want to remember:
-Covenant vs. Contract
Covenant: you do what you promised even if the other person doesn’t do what they promised
Contract: it is broken if one person doesn’t do what they promised

-Every marriage needs three things: Faith, Hope, and Love
Faith in Jesus Christ, Hope in each other: Holding On Praying Expectantly, & Love…unconditional love.

-Husbands and Wives are different because they are a man and a woman, God made us to be different. 

- When we reject each other, we are rejecting ourselves because we are one.

Mixed Media Monday: Smash Book Embellishments

Monday, July 2, 2012

I am officially in love with smash books! I have begun adding pictures to my pre-embellished pages and I'm finding it so much easier and more fun than plain old scrapbooking! If you haven't tried smashing, I highly recommend it!

Here are some of the embellishments that I added to my baby smash book:

I cut out some tags out of pretty paper & placed them random spots.

Cute little bunting :)

The rest of her ultrasounds...I sewed them to the page so that they can be viewed in accordion style. 

Leftovers from her gender reveal party.

This was the envelope that said, "Probably a girl" for the gender reveal party so I just hole punched it right in. 


Where her little footprints will go. 

Cute tag cutouts from leftover scrap paper.

Owl cutouts made by my friends from my baby shower.

Paper doily envelope, I used this neat tutorial from Pinterest. 

Mini Paper Doilies...I have an obsession with doilies! 


Just some more paper scraps.


I had so much fun adding the embellishments because it can be whatever you want!
What would you add? :)
