** Edited to Say**

:: Just heard on the news that the average a person spends $116.00 on Valentines day. We however, do not. We are using a gift card {from two Christmas' ago} for dinner and some coupons from the back of our cereal boxes for our movie. And those shoes of mine, a whopping $34.99 - And the kids off to G&G's for the night {yessiree, the whole night} = priceless!!! ::

:: What I'm loving Wednesday ::

:: I'm loving this cool little gadget called a VIOlight - it's a cleaning container for your cell phone. Just the thought of how dirty my cell phone is gives me the geebies all the way up my back - blech! This sanitizes your phone in 4 minutes. Your can find it at Brookstone ::


:: Would love to get these super cute little shirts for my boys --- might just be a little Easter treat ;) -- they are by Honey Bee and can be found here ::

:: I'm really enjoying my bible study based on Beth Moore's "so long insecurity" book. Last week was the first week and I loved loved loved it, but I love how BM speaks, so it was really no surprise, but I can't wait to head off to bible study this morning! ::

:: Can't believe it's already Wednesday, hope you're enjoying your day, week and February {still can't believe that it's FEBRUARY!!!} ::

:: New Kitchen Blind ::

:: Happy Monday Lovlies! ::

:: Back a while ago I wrote about finally finding a perfect blind for my super-sized kitchen window -- well, a couple weeks ago the blind arrived and my DH got it installed {without me EVEN asking!} ::

:: Here is the result of the great blind hunt, originally I would have gone with one espresso coloured but I didn't think that it should be matchy-match. So I ordered a more natural coloured blind and took a chance. I don't like doing that but the matchy-match was not the look I was going for ::

:: So here it is, 1/4 of the way down the window ::

:: All the way down, there is no privacy liner and is just strictly a bamboo blind and is very, very private ::
:: Here it is almost all the way up ::
:: Square on view ::
:: All in all, I am SO delighted with the blind, it was super easy to install {10 minutes max}, super great quality, and better than I imagined! ::
:: Oh happy day! ::

:: I was away all weekend at a women's retreat with my church, we had an amazing time of praise, teaching and just sister bonding time...so I'm working on getting up a post about that. But I've got a very full plate for the next few days, so I'll see if I have time ::

:: Here's to another great week full of joy, joy that comes from within ::
