Grace and her friends spent an evening washing cars. Remember those days? I do. My grandma would pay us to wash her blue Monte Carlo. They are working for money to go towards their clubhouse Hido Jo.
God knows I have been on a journey of being the woman that I am instead of the little girl that I feel like. Pinterest has got me pinning outfits that I see myself in…at least via computer. This weekend at Marshall’s I was determined to find some heels that I love-were comfortable-and that didn’t make me feel like….well….inappropriate. For whatever reason – I don’t wear heels because I feel like a not nice girl. It is hard to explain. Not any longer! I have been intentionally letting God work on this area of my life. I LONG to feel and look like a woman. Well – these beauty’s spoke to me in all three areas.
I struggled for a bit with the price but I finally caved. I love these! I wore them on Saturday when we all went to lunch. Yes – I felt all the usual feelings but I did it anyway with much assurance I looked perfectly fine! They are Kanna shoes and let me tell you – if you find them at Marshall’s buy them! They are made in Spain and to die for!
Tara wrote a post as well as Linsey…two of my gals and so I thought I would blurb about it : it is addicting if you let it. I just started pinning because we are moving on July 28. We got to move back the date a month…sigh:) This is a place where I can put all of my inspiration for remodeling. Als0 – I love seeing what all of my girls are pinning. I have more I want to follow I just have to make time. You know how it is. Go check it out! Hint: Just give yourself only so long and then get up;) Here is my Pinterest and by the weekend Nikki is going to make me a little Pinterest button for the blog and finish the summer makeover…my little heart is so excited!
Saw this on my friend Diana’s Pinterest and just had to have it! This is SO applicable in so many ways!
Grace did a photo shoot for Nikki. Her eyes are speaking aren’t they?
FYI – I did finally do some housework;)
Pray for Gabi please. Tomorrow is her surgery.
Well – that is a bit about my weekend what about yours?
xo~
I cannot go to Pinterest…it will take up too much of my time, I know it. I have tried to blog less…that is very hard to do. I closed my FB in January(never liked it anyway). Trying to spend less time at the computer and more time living. So I am purposely staying away from Pinterest.
Your Gracie's eyes are speaking….so beautiful. I remember when my Gracie had long straight uncut, undyed hair. My Gracie has big blue eyes too, almost lavender. I miss those days…so much. Hold them while they are there. Really they are gone before you know it.
i love the shoes, and i, too, am a pinterest addict. it's just all things lovely in one place…. what's not to love about that?
And I'm quite behind in blogs, so this is the first I've *cognitively* heard of the move. (i'm sure you've said it before but i've been so scattered, not many things are sticking in my brain!) Praying for you during that transition!
i was going to say something else until I got to the bottom and saw THOSE EYES! They will tell a story of her soul for as long as she will let the light shine in and out of them! Glorious, wonderfully made daughter of the King!
And so are you!
xo,
Linsey
Oh those eyes… beautiful! I remember the good times of washing cars for some extra money. Fun times! Those shoes are fantastic. Love them!
You are so right
about Pinterest….
It's good to set a
timer and stick to it!
Love the saying…and
Grace's eyes….well,
they are amazing!

I am not a shoe person .. . but those are adorable.
I have been a little afraid to start piniterest, even tho I signed up. I spend too much time on the computer already. We will see.
Fondly,
Glenda
Too funny! Good for you buying the shoes! I love love heels…it's just the shopping that gives me fits. LOL. I love the pictures – all of them! The car wash image explodes with color and the sense that at all ages the girls are bosses
Blessings today…
Love the shoes…… love that you had the courage to wear them, thet is a beautiful testomony to what God is doing in you life.
