Why Be Conservative Chic?

My friend Traci posted this a few days ago, and you MUST check it out: Does what you wear encourage men to stumble?

Check out all of my Conservative Chic posts to find great clothes that WON'T encourage men to stumble, and in doing so will glorify the Lord!

{OH SO} Conservative Chic

My original Conservative Chic post had dresses that were cute, but nothing to scream about. The next one got better, and these are even better! I wish I had money just laying around to buy it all! :)

Urgent Prayer Request

My friend's sister needs urgent prayer right now, read below: Mary is in the hospital and will not come home until the baby is delivered. She is 30 weeks now. Her water broke, her fluid level is not good but not at an extremely dangerous level. So, if she can keep from getting dilated or loosing any more fluid, she will stay put until he is born. Some people have stayed in this situation for a month but her doctor said that normally when your water brakes the likely hood is that the baby will be born within a week. For now, she has to wait day by day to see what will happen. She is very uncomfortable and is having back labor pains.

They are giving her steroids to develop the babies lungs and each shot increases his chances of being better off. She gets the second dose today at 5:00. She is very upset about not being able to care for Andrew (I year old) at this time. You could be praying for Mary – remain in stable, healthy condition as well as her emotional/spiritual state now and in the future. New baby Luke – remain in his mother’s womb and to be strong and healthy at delivery. Andrew to be cared for and not too distressed over his mommy being gone or unable to hold him. My mom, Paula that she will be physically, mentally , and spiritually strong to care for Andrew. The whole family – all grandparents and siblings to be supportive of Mary and Joe at this time.

Look at that sweet face- how can you not pray for him and his family? ♥

Christ Centered Decor, Revisited

A few posts ago I wrote about Christ centered decorating. Here are a few more ideas:

Do you remember the bird room? Well, I made some adjustments. Check it out here. Here is a scripture piece I made which is the theme of the whole room. I had to abridge it a bit for space... here is what the Bible fully says: "Look at the birds of the air, that they do not sow, nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?" Matthew 6:26
I also have a cow room which has this as its theme: "He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul;" Psalm 23:2,3... also abridged for space. :)

What are some of your Christ centered decor ideas? :)

I stole this from a friend of mine, and it is a MUST SHARE!!!

A Daddy Alarm,
By Julie Banton
Pierson Station, Illinois,, USA

At our house we have a "Dad Alarm.” This is a recurring alarm that I set on my cell phone. It goes off one hour before my husband arrives home from work. It reminds my children to clean up any messes around the house and tidy themselves up. It reminds the older children and me to start supper. It also reminds me to make sure my clothes are fresh, to fix my make up and my hair and say a prayer for my big sweet hubby.

To be honest, we are not as consistent with this as I would like to be. Sometimes the alarm goes off and I ignore it, thinking to myself "too busy." But when we are consistent, the results are not only a blessing to my husband, but a blessing to our whole household. My husband is never "too busy" to go to work to provide for his family and this family should never be to busy to provide a warm, clean, "Welcome Home" for him.


Here is a picture of my sweet hubby! I am so blessed to be his wife, and I will for sure be implementing the Daddy Alarm at our home! :) You should too!!! :)

Christ Centered Decorating

Sorry for my blogging hiatus! I went to summer camp with the youth group, (we work with the middle schoolers at our church). It was a blessing as always! :)

My FAVORITE passage in the Bible is Matthew 6:25-34. I have it in my house at least 4 times, in different ways of course. :) Here is number 5! :) I am hoping to adopt two little girls, (prayers appreciated). If I do get them, the eldest's room will be Birdies and Flowers, so the theme of her room is Matthew 6:25-34! She will have a worry free room! ;)



I used left over art board, and paints I already had. This was absolutely free!

Help keep Christ center in your life by keeping Him the center of your decorating! :)
