water and fire and other niceness

okay, so its been ages since my last post.....my trip to AR & KY threw me off in the blogging area, so i've decided that today i'm going to get back into it. i have way too many cute pictures of my trip to post here, so look to facebook soon for about a hundred more pictures!.....


I've been meaning to blog about this for some time and last month i finally remembered to get a picture of my beautiful flowers......each month since elijah was born, matt has brought me flowers to celebrate his birth and me being a mommy. so on the 28th of last month, these are the beautiful flowers he brought home! what a thoughtful, sweetie husband i have.......

there's no other purpose for this picture other than i thought it was adorable. love the green and blue stripes!

so on saturday, our hot water heater finally bit the dust. its been leaking on & off for some time now, and when matt woke up on saturday, it was spraying water out of its side. so what did he do?? be the handy man that he is- took the old one out, and replaced it with a new one! i made him pose in front of our shiny new one, complete with buttons and settings on the top! way nice!!

after matt's hot water heater work and my day of yard work we relaxed with eli before bed by the fire. he absolutely loved sitting outside with us just staring at the fire and being together. what a wonderful little family we have- so blessed!
