I Hope You Dance

                                          "I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
                                      You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
                                       May you never take one single breath for granted
                                         God forbid love ever leave you empty handed


                               I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
                                    Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
                                    Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
                                    And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

                                                                 I hope you dance


                                  I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
                                          Never settle for the path of least resistance
                               Livin' might mean takin' chances, but they're worth takin'
                                      Lovin' might be a mistake, but it's worth makin'
 

                                         Don't let some Hellbent heart leave you bitter
                                         When you come close to sellin' out, reconsider
                                   Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
                                      And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

                                                                I hope you dance..."

                     I truely love that both of my girls can't stand still when they hear music!

One of Lindsey's favorite times of the day is bath time, thanks to Nina & Star on the Sprout Channel...she loves to sing the "Washa-Washa" & "Brusha-Brusha" song or at least that's what my sweet Lindsey calls it...can't believe she's almost 21 months already!


                 So much for my "time-out" stool...still works, but along with other things...



Everyone gets their teeth "busha-busha" in our house per Lindsey..


                            And of course...we can't go to bed without a few funny faces!
                                                                     Night-Night.

Finalized! ~ Hailey's Ballerina Bedroom Redo

I am totally singing the  HALLELUJAH CHORUS !  After months of contemplating Hailey's bedroom redo and realizing after I started that this was harder than expected with tons of DIY projects...it's DONE!!   Well, at least for now.  Possible that I will continue with cosmetic procedures later, but for now...here it is... Just a walk down memory lane... even though it's totally embarrassing with overflow of clutter in which I strongly dislike... Oh my...look at the bedskirt, lol!  Felt a tad bit sorry for Lindsey who thought she belonged with her favorite stuffed animals in the hammock.... But anyway, after painting her walls pink and hand painting sillhouettes of ballerinas...it was on!  I have been so greatful that God placed the perfect people in my path to finish Hailey's room with one of the Dance mom's, Jenna Pratt who exchanged a ballerina comforter set plus pillows and curtains for a video baby monitor...absolutely perfect! ...

Down memory lane - Winter 2013

If there's one thing I love most, it's snow days!! Down time with fun in the snow and hot chocolate, cuddles and watching some of our favorites like Toot & Puddle, Franklin, Little Bear, The Berenstain Bears, Olivia, The Backyardigans, Sofia the First...or any Christmas movie, especially the Polar Express!  We love snow days!!                                   Nothing better than waking up to snow and homemade fun. The girls decided to dress up our snowlady and chose Snow White after looking through their dress-up clothes...neither of them wanted snow white to melt....   After thawing out and a warm bath, Lindsey always enjoyed playing with her playhouse and would always holler for me to come find her and let me know she was in her house. She loved how she could fit inside and imagination play.... . Lindsey started getting a cold but continued to smile....I mean, who doesn't love that baby...
