4th of July

                                  This year we celebrated 4th of the July three different days.                                On July 3rd, we went to Zach's parents' house to celebrate with their family. 
Our Niece and her adorable new hair cut! (And sunglasses!)
 
                                                Our older nephew!  He's such a happy boy!
                           Going to swing she wanted to hold my hand.  Praying she'll always want that! : )
 Please don't get me started on how big she is getting!
                                                Testing out my camera's action mode!
                           Nellie was traumatized by some fireworks Zach's dad set off.  Poor baby!
 On the 4th of July we went to my parents' to celebrate.  Noble Boo and I. 
                                                                        Rotten-ness.
                                             Our patriotic outfits (minus red! Haha)

                                                     My sister and most adorable nephew-dog!
   We hung out all day and then went to Mama Joyce's for supper.  Check out her gorgeous hydrangeas!
 Have I mentioned I loooooove my new camera?  The pictures just turn out so well!
                                                          Suzanne and her boyfriend!

                                                Handsome husband and myself!
                                                                   And again!
                                             Aunt Melody, Mama Joyce, and Mama
 Aunt Lynn, since I know you're reading this, you were the only daughter missing!  Guess we'll just have to get some pictures of ya'll all at the beach! : ) 
  Our third celebration, I have no pictures from because it rained and I didn't want to risk getting my camera damaged.  Our friends have street wide party and fireworks show on Saturday, the 6th.  They do three separate shows with a crazy amount of fireworks.  I so wish I could have gotten pictures, but you'll just have to trust that it was as good as I say it was.  We're definitely hoping we get to join them again next year!

It was a great 4th, and I'm glad we got to celebrate it with everyone we love!

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

What I'm Thankful For...

Hey y'all. It's just Nathana in this post. I figured since I've been alive 20 years, that equals 20 Thanksgivings, so I'm gonna have the 20 things I'm most Thankful for. Here goes nothing! : ) 1. The first thing of course I am thankful for is my salvation through Jesus Christ! Without him I have no hope to be anything! 2. My mom and dad, and the home they raised me in. I could not imagine any parents better than mine, and I'm proud to be their daughter. I'm also thankful they didn't give me away to a farm when I was difficult! 3. My brother and sister. No one else knows all of the trouble we've been in and fun we've had over the years and even though we don't always see eye to eye, I wouldn't trade them for any other siblings. 4. Zachary Scheller. God has blessed me with an even better future husband than I could have ever asked for. My love and respect for him grows each day, and I will be so thankful this June when I can ca...

No-spend February

I have always been a "saver" of money, practically since I started receiving it for birthdays and especially since earning it.  I nearly cried when I paid $211 dollars cash for my iPod nano when I was 16. True fact!  So a long time ago I heard of a "Dave Ramsey" type idea of a no-spend month where in your household you pay your bills and buy groceries, and no extras for one month.  Then see how much you save.  Before the new year Zach and I were thinking about plans for this next year and things we're planning on saving for, so this idea appealed to the both of us!  Next came the decision of what month to pick for our month.  We knew December was out, for obvious reasons and we felt we needed more time to prepare than January, so February it was... also, who else would admit we're smart for doing this during the shortest month of the year? ; )  Yes, we thought of that as well. We did decide our own guidelines that fit our family. 1. Pay our bills....
