Putting it all Together

I have been searching forever for oars to go on the wall over my couch. I love the old rustic look they give. Here is what I am looking for if you happen to know where I can find some, please let me know:) Also, I finally bought my bedroom paint this weekend (Valspar Historic in Fioli Dark Iris)...now to get started. Tell me what you think!

Keeping a Quiet Heart

I have been reading the book Keeping a Quiet Heart by Elizabeth Elliot recently. If you have never read it, I recommend it! You can even borrow mine when I am finished, if you would like. She uses her wisdom and God's word to get straight to the point and needless to say, the Lord has been convicting me page after page.

Read Across America

We just got finished celebrating "Read Across America Week" at school. The kids loved it! We even had a little parade where the students and staff dressed up as one of their favorite characters. I was the cat from If you Give a Cat a Cupcake by Laura Joffe Numeroff. The kids giggled every time they saw me. One of my favorite kids bookstores is the Storybook Shoppe in Beaufort, SC. I am always looking for new and old books to teach guidance with at school, here are a few I used recently.

Spring

I love Spring! I can finally turn my music up and roll the windows down again. Spring also reminds me that a break is near, and after a long but enjoyable school year we can all use some time off. My favorite part is that I get to head to SC and see some of my favorite little people. I miss seeing all those t-ball games and swim meets. Just a few more weeks and I can be found...by the pool, on the boat, in the swing or hugging on the cutest kiddos in the world. Spring Break...please come soon!

I've Got a Crush on You...Baby!

Is it OK to have a crush on a house plan...or actually a few?? Well, I do...I have admired these beauties for years. Some of them are actually built in my parents neighborhood and every time I drive by I just want to run up the stairs, knock on the door and ask if I can peek inside. I have to thank my mom for this secret passion. Since I was a little girl she would always take me to look at the houses being built wherever we lived and I would imagine what should go where and pick out colors in my head. It was always fun to go check back in a few weeks to see the progress. The only bad habit I formed from this little passion, is every time I go through the grocery store I want to hit the magazine aisle and those plan books that are now sitting in my closet just beg to come home with me:) Luckily, technology has brought my secret crush to the web. Here is one of my favorites by Eric Moser...

Timeless Grace

I chose the name "Timeless Grace" for this blog because of God's gift of unmerited favor in my life over the years. I chose "timeless" because thankfully His grace is something that will never cease, it is eternal. What a peace that brings to my heart knowing I can rest in that truth. This blog will be an account of the people I love, the places I have been and hope to see and the everyday surprises of God working in my life.
