Mama's Garden

Purse Projects

Since spring has sprung I have been on the look out for a purse. We had heard you could make a purse out of a place mat but we had never tried it. Today we bought the supplies and set to work. (In truth it was mostly Mama, I took the pictures and did as she instructed!) The total cost was under $5!

The second project was a 'going green' project! A bag out of newspaper. Below are the instructions and supplies which cost around $4!

I Love...

our scaredy cat...who needs a rest after walking up a hill...and green/golden grass before its first trim...

I love spring!

Enjoyin' the weather!

After lunch with my fam. and clean-up was finished I headed outside for a walk. It was hot but breezy-a perfect combination!
Here I am with my four essentials: Chacos, FlyLady water bottle, cell phone, and most importantly my camera! And to top it all of I had on new capris (thanks Mama)! And yes! It was a spendid walk!

Because of Him...

"Then the solders of the governor took Jesus into the governor's headquarters and they gathered the whole battalion before him. They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him, and twisting together a crown of thorns, they put it on his head and put a reed in his hand. And kneeling before him, they mocked him saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!" And they spit on him and took the reed and struck him on the head. And when they had had mocked him, they stripped him of the robe and put his clothes on him and led him away to crucify him." -Matthew 27:27-31

we are FORGIVEN!!!
