Can You Believe This Was a Garage?

(Insert the Hallelujah Chorus)

Would you take a look at my beautiful new good-smelling carpet? (I took a picture of the Showtime Hoops for contrast..And may I say it is a most excellent toy if you are looking for something to buy your boys for Christmas?? ) I only have a minute, but wanted to show you my awesome brother-in-law and hubby’s mad carpet-laying skillz. I’ll tell you more later about how we have a special kind of hard concrete and how wild cousins can be when they have a wide open room to run around in.

Above getting carpet in my room, I enjoyed a night of being with family. There’s nothing better…Thanks so much for coming to help TJ and LB..Ya’ll are best!!

What’s next?

Paint the 13th coat of white paint on the door. (I painted over red..eek)
Clean the construction junk out.
Install curtain rods/blinds.
Cut off curtains, sew hems, and hang.
Move in furniture…
*sigh*

More soon!

Hi... I'm Lisa and as the tagline says, also a preacher's wife. I began this website in 2007 just prior to the Facebook revolution when mom blogs were a relatively conflict-free zone for sharing recipes and stories about our latest parenting fails. Fast-forward a few years... Luke and I continue to serve the same family of believers in North Alabama where we've called home for over 16 years. The boys are grown and gone, we have an incredible daughter-in-law and the baby McKay is living her best life as an only child while working and going to college. I am a full-time corporate employee and still love to write and teach Scripture. The last two years haven't been kind to public events but it's been during these trying times that the Lord has revealed the importance of the local church reclaiming discipleship using the gifts of those within the body. The time feels right to refresh the blog as a platform for sharing how God has worked through this process and perhaps encourage other churches to follow. And who knows, there may even be a recipe or more parenting fails. Those don't stop when your kids become adults. Thank you for visiting.. I look forward to connecting!
