Hello friends, we finally retrieved our furniture from Alabama and I've been busy unpacking boxes.
Toby is regaining his strength and we will be going back for more scans soon.
I want to thank you for your prayers and sweet emails during my absence from blogging.
I think about all of you so often and someday hope to get back in to blogging regularly, time will tell.
But for now I just wanted to give you a little update on our new home in Texas. I'm calling it our 'Cabin in the Trees' since it backs up to a national forest.
I've done a small bit of decorating to make it feel like home and wanted to share the pics with y'all.
This is the entry area in the living room. I kind of mixed and matched some furniture pieces here.
I had to be creative because our new home is so much smaller than our Alabama home and not everything fits the way it used to.
The lamp is from Hobby Lobby and gave me a space to add some decor inside, fun.
This is the area behind the loo, there are no windows in the master bathroom so I added my own.
Stay tuned for some BIG changes in the kitchen area, (HINT) it involves painting hehe.

Thank you for stopping by and God Bless you all. See you soon.
Oh, I am so happy that Toby is doing well. Know that there is a lot of working settling into your new home, but it looks like you have a handle on it.
ReplyDeleteI pray for Toby every night and so happy with your update.

Thank you so much for your ongoing prayers Mary. We are hoping and praying for good news. Doing work on the house have given us a welcome diversion from all the doctors visits.
DeleteThank you so much for updating. I've been thinking and praying for you and Toby and will continue to do so. I like your decorating decisions. I know all to well what it's like to have to move into a new space and try and make your furniture fit. My husband and I moved 22 times with the military. I can't wait to see what you do with the kitchen! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThank you Ann for your faithful prayers, they mean so much to us. 22 times???? Wow, that makes me tired just thinking about it. One thing the moving did is make me declutter and that's a good thing.
DeleteSo great to hear from you! God bless you and Toby! Your new home is truly looking like 'you'... love it!

ReplyDeleteThank you Cindy, he is getting stronger slowly but surely, our hope is in God for our future. Yes it's been a welcome change working on the home, it's been a lot of fun for both of us.

It is so wonderful to see you decorating. I can't wait to see your beautiful kitchen, because if you touch it, it will be beautiful. Love you and take care of yourselves. Mary Ann
ReplyDeleteAwww dear Mary Ann, thank you for stopping by. We have been so encouraged by everyone, it helps so very much. I have some ideas on the kitchen, lots of paint lol.

ReplyDeleteSO happy to hear that Toby is gaining! Praying the new scans are clear! What a winter you both have put in. You new home looks wonderful and love all the porch area. Having a fishing area close is a big plus and hope Toby is there often. Love all the photos and how you are making this house your home. Have a blessed weekend.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your good thoughts and encouragement Tete. We have had the opportunity to go fishing and he really enjoyed himself, I baited a hook with a worm for the first time, ugh, I felt kind of sorry for it :(
DeleteDear Teresa and Toby, just checking in to let you know I am thinking about you two. I do hope everything is well. Happy Easter, enjoy the day. Love and prayers, Mary Ann
