Taking Time To Reflect


May Day is coming. My Goodness...this year is just about a fourth of the year over as April comes to an end. 1/4th gone. That makes me bLiNk and say "HUH?" I want to take time to reflect the months of January, February, March and April.


After Christmas, we rang in a cold New Year,

celebrated the 3rd Birthday of Lil Junior Miss,

traveled to Saint Louis on a snowy Valentine's Day when a Grandson was coming into this world,

a Daughter-In-Law turned 30,

went to Oklahoma to celebrate Mic Man's 3rd Birthday,

returned to St. Louis for a longer visit with family,

Easter,

Daughter turned 30,

Mom turned 78,

TAXES,

Spring Cleaning,

thinking about decorating ideas.



Looking forward to more sun filled days with blue skies and gentle breezes as Spring sways to the tune of what GOD has in store for us.


May you have a wonderful Year,

~Deanna~

Hang on for a bunch of pictures...please smile...you look so nice that way.


Beginning with a cold winter and Christmas




Lil Junior Miss celebrates her 3rd Birthday with HELLO KITTY Theme. Her Momma put on a sweet party. Even though the weather was rough we had a nice time. It was warm inside. Gramps fixed that cute cake!!! Gramps!!!!






Valentine's Day BIRTHDAY of "Baby P" in Saint Louis!!! Thankful we were able to be there for the big event. Momma and Baby doing fine.






LONG TRIP on the road after the birth of "Baby P"







We celebrated Mic Man's 3rd Birthday in Oklahoma. Theme was Toy Story. Shell made the Birthday Cake! She did a great job.






Shell's Folks.








Before we returned Home to KANSAS we went to POPS outside of Arcadia, Oklahoma to have a HAMBARGRRRR and Famous Root Beer. We were treated to seeing a red helicopter...that is something I seldom see.
























We traveled back to Saint Louis to spend more time with Tinman, Ryna and their newborn Son. Since he was born on a Sunday and we weren't able to stay longer on Valentine's Day we returned 3 weeks later.

























We headed Home after a trip to see where a Saint Louis FITZ Root Beer is actually made and had some Lunch at their Restaurant. Their Root Beer Float is a piece of ART.








PAPERWORK is a Reality at HomeHaven and I will go into more detail later as time passes about all this paperwork that has to be gone through. Hours have gone into a paper chase. HOURS. I didn't know I had it in me to be so focused on being a Private Investigator...but once again I got to see first hand that there are still surprises in this old girl that I didn't know was there!
God is good and greatly to be praised.





Ecclesiastes 3:1
TO EVERYTHING there is a season,
and a time for every matter or purpose under heaven...

DECORATING

I knew a very frugal Lady named Edith that shared with me a excellent guideline for decorating. She said with ease, "If your room has clean ceilings, floors, and walls, and the windows have nice curtains, you'll have an attractive room."



John 3:7

“Marvel not that I said unto thee,

Ye must be born again.”

King James Version (KJV)

PSALM 118:17

I shall not die,
but live, and declare
the works of the Lord.

PROVERBS 24:3-4

By wisdom
a house is built,
and through understanding

it is established;
through
knowledge

its rooms are filled with rare

and beautiful treasures.

BLOSSOM WHERE YOU ARE PLANTED
As long as I live, I will have to continually submit to God's plan for my life. You will be blessed because you turned your life over to God. Be confessing how good God is and tell Him you agree with who He says He is. BELIEVE and watch miracles happen. Be not afraid. ~Deanna

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS

FUN FACTS FOR CHANDYS
SELECTING THE CORRECT SIZE CHANDY TO USE IN A ROOM MADE EASY. FORMULA MEASUREMENTS: Measure the room's height and width. Add together the numbers. Example: 8' x 10' room is 8 plus 10= 18" Use a 18" wide chandy. OR Take width of room calculating 2" for every foot. Example: 15' wide room. Take 15 times 2 = 30. Room needs 30" wide chandy. Standard distance between the bottom of the chandelier to the top of the table is 30 inches. When hanging the chandelier, make sure to hang it at the proper height. The bottom of a chandelier over a dining table or kitchen island should hang 30 to 32 inches above the top of the table or island. Most rooms call for at least 7 feet of space between the bottom of the chandelier and the floor.

WISHES

NO MATTER HOW BADLY YOU WISH with all your might that the something devastating that happened in your life hadn't happened and want so badly to go back in time to prevent it from happening...it isn't humanly possible to do this. You can't change the fact that it happened. IT DID. But JESUS can change the MEANING of what happened to you and give you PEACE. He can show you the way in which you are to go. God richly BLESS you. ~Deanna
