Happy Easter from our family to yours! He is risen Happy Easter from our family to yours! He is risen! Христос воскрес! 🕊✝️💗
This strange season of life has brought on a rolle This strange season of life has brought on a rollercoaster of emotions. But whether we are celebrating or mourning, thriving or surviving, questioning or trusting, we can't lose sight of hope. "In [God's] great mercy He has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." (1 Peter 1:3) 💗 I'd love to hear what you and your family have planned for tomorrow?!
Mom fail: Throughout yesterday's nature walk and l Mom fail: Throughout yesterday's nature walk and later when we were dyeing the eggs I explained the meaning of Easter for Mila in terms I thought she might understand. I kept it short and simple and basically said that Jesus gave us the best gift in the world – eternal life – and that the eggs we were dyeing are a symbol of life – which reminds us of the gift from Jesus. She was very interested in what I was saying and kept repeating things back to me like she actually understood. Later that day when my husband came home from work I asked Mila if she wanted to tell daddy what she learned about Easter. Yes! – she said enthusiastically... "We will go to church one day and bring the eggs and the chickens will come and they will eat the eggs!" 😳😑 "And Jesus gave us a gift!" she added. Oh we're finally getting somewhere – I thought to myself. "What kind of gift?" I inquired. "...a blue one!" 😆 Blue is her favorite color so she might be on to something... But needless to say we will try again next year. P.S. I shared the tutorial for how we dyed these in my Stories.

When I start to feel overwhelmed by the amount of When I start to feel overwhelmed by the amount of projects we still have to finish (so many!)...or all the major purchases I still have to make (💸💸💸)...or what will happen to the real estate market given the current state of events...or the most obvious of concerns (the dreaded C-word) — I venture over to the almost finished master bathroom and just stare. 🖤🖤🖤 The oh-so-talented @roomfortuesday challenged us to share a happy corner of our homes – well this is mine. What's yours?
We uncovered the floors at the house and I cannot We uncovered the floors at the house and I cannot believe we are so so close to being finished! I better start sourcing furniture if I want to stage this place in time! P.S. Can you spot the new exterior color and deck through the windows? 😮 P.S.S. Yes I know a lot is happening in the world right now but I'm choosing to redirect my energy to more productive things instead of breaking my brain trying to figure out this madness.

I wish I could say I see the light at the end of t I wish I could say I see the light at the end of the renovation tunnel but we've hit round 3 (or is it 4 now?) of sickness in our house so everything is at a complete standstill...unless you count the 💸💸💸 I've been spending online ordering ALL THE THINGS. Side note: why are there so many things?! ••• But in case you were wondering...I am definitely team "Light Fixtures in the Bedroom." ☺️ I understand that some may prefer a fan to help cool a room. If you're renovating for yourself and a fan is an absolute necessity for your lifestyle then by all means put the fan up. BUT if you're looking to market a home for sale (and especially if you plan to stage the house) then go for the beautiful light fixture. No buyer has ever walked into a room and said "my goodness what a gorgeous fan!" but it's not uncommon to hear "look at that beautiful chandelier – such a statement!" and we all know first impressions are important in real estate. ••• Psychologists say that we make up our mind about a person within the first fifteen seconds of meeting them and I think the same is true of a house. So yes...when selling go for what looks best – at least that's my rationale and I'm sticking to it. 😆 Besides...it's a very easy change if someone is a diehard fan fan...see what I did there??? ••• P.S. We've been cooped up in the house for far too long. ••• P.S.S. The end vote was 50|50 in my stories.
