A Mother's Day Treat

I thought I would take the weekend off and spend time with my kiddies, but before I do I wanted to share what we are doing for my mom for Mother's Day.

We commissioned a piece of artwork by a friend, she also happens to be an incredible artist!!

Meet Katie Toombs.

She is Amazing!!!

Not only is she an artist cranking out work right and left, but a mommy to 4 little ones! 

I don't know how she does it.

Here is a sampling of a recent art show that was held this spring.

how precious is this painting?

*side story: Our church is making plans to try and move the original historic chapel from its original location onto the current church property. Katie is commissioning these pieces and a portion of the funds will go to restoring the chapel and getting it placed on current church property.

This is actually the actual painting we got for my mom! 

I can't wait to give it to her this weekend!!

Thanks again Katie! We will share a picture once we get it hung!!

What are you doing for your mom for mothers day??

Baby Dedication

On Mother's Day we dedicated our sweet boy.

We made a commitment before the lord to raise him in the admonition of the lord, and a christian home.

Such an incredible charge that you daily are striving to live up to. 

little fella was worn out from missing his morning nap.

Here is hubs with his momma and half brother.

And somehow we managed to not get any pics with my family. 

typical. haha

Hope everyone had a wonderful mothers day!

And now I realize I have no picture of him all decked out in his outfit... I will need to take that pic!
