Weekend

 

           I want to replace this Ikea chair by the closet. I can't sit in it comfortably as I am too short!

                                                Also I want a new bedside table for Tim.

We had a really good weekend. Saturday we got a lot done in our room - including decluttering all the things. Our room had become a dumping spot. 

Tim got my FB Marketplace painting hung. It's of a Scottish Loch. We like the way the painting looks against the wallpaper.

We also got our curtains hung. I went with burgundy velvet. They look great with the wallpaper, too!

We need a couple of chairs, and a rug for the sitting room area of the bedroom. 

In the office, the Colonial Williamsburg Nicholson Green is wonderful. I completely love this color. The white paint in both our bedroom and the office is Farrow and Ball Pointing mixed into another brand. 

We loved the way the black door handles looked against the green, so we decided to go with black outlets and covers, too. The store only had shiny plastic, so we used satin black spray paint that we had and that looks great.

The office needs a desk with drawers for Tim and a nicer table or small desk for the computer. We will bring our console that we have in the basement up and have the printer on that. 

In Family news, today is my youngest son's 21st Birthday! All my kids are full adults now!

This is him when I started my blog in 2007.

This was yesterday! I love this guy so much! Happy Birthday, son! 

Yesterday was our youngest daughter and son in law's first wedding anniversary! We went to lunch with our son in law's parents, this guy above, and our local son in law. (our daughter was seeing a movie with her girlfriends) We sent our happy wishes to them on their anniversary!

What a great weekend!

Information Friday

 

We are hosting my daughter's chickens and ducks, and that has made me miss having our own chickens. This speckled sussex in the photo and her sister were so curious and adventurous. They were the first to try anything new.

How embarrassing for Anthony Fauci, who loved attention and popularity, to sit and claim the 5th in front of the Senate committee. His hands were shaking pretty good. He has committed high crimes, but was pardoned, so we'll see what happens. So many people died, all because of his arrogance.

I saw this video that Donald Trump shared of Marco Rubio explaining communism.

Spain has been 'attacked' by mass illegal migrants from Morocco.

Finally the Prime Minister calls it an attack!

Then this good news today!

Keep praying, not only for the United States but the people of the world who get trapped under horrible leaders and suffer. Lord have mercy.

Weekend

 What an awesome week we've just had!

Lots of cousin play time, swimming, eating, hanging out. We had a men's dinner for Kyle (he'll be 21 on August 3rd) while his out of state brother in laws were in town, and happily, my brother and sister in law are visiting as well, so my brother got to be at the dinner too! 

We did a trip on Friday to Lake Tobias to do the safari. It was so great!

On Saturday, we had Rachel's baby shower at a local-ish coffee shop.

A longtime friend has her own cookie business and she made the most darling cookies for favors. They are so cute you hate to eat them! Another friend made candles. So talented!

It was so special to spend time with all the wonderful ladies who attended, and we cannot wait for this darling to arrive!

After the shower we went to Fuddrucker's for dinner to celebrate my parents 67th wedding anniversary.

That was special, too! It was the first time in years that all my kids were together! As a mom I love to watch my adult kids interact and have such fun! My brother loved getting to see them all, too! It had been years since they'd seen all of them!

My Tennessee family headed home yesterday, and my brother and sister in law leave tomorrow.

It has been so heart filling, and I am so grateful to God for it all.

Weekend

We worked on the office on Saturday.

We had a lovely thunderstorm and we were happy for the rain and to have stuff to do indoors!

Here are a few sneak peeks of our bedroom. We still need lamps, a rug,  two comfy chairs, and we’d like an electric fireplace for coziness!

Here is a sneak peek of the office! It would make a perfect snug, but we don’t need that.

We’ve had the guest room set up but I’ve been upping to coziness factor. The gingham sheets and new lampshades add the perfect touch! Just in time for my brother and sister in laws’ visit this week!

I hope you all had a great weekend.

Our Guest Room is ready for my brother and his wife who are coming this coming week. Then in August my dear friend Jane is coming!

Our Tennessee daughter and her family will be here this week, too, but are staying at Wes and Rachel's house. So excited!

This is going to be a long post, mostly about the interference by China in our elections.

This post by Monica Crowley really got my attention. She is Trump's Protocol Ambassador. 

Strap in! Love it!

The mainstream media is trying to make is sound as if this is nothing important. The same information that China has gathered on 220 million American Citizens, states won't give to the Federal Government saying it's private. So it can't be nothing, and so important to protect the privacy of citizens. I'm for that! However, with this information China has worked online to divide Americans, to try to get people to hate DJT. How do we know where our feelings about different issues come from? Were we influenced?

It's important that this isn't swept under the rug. The MSM wants to do that because they've been complicit. 

This is an important exchange between former Attorney General John Ashcroft and Adam Schiff.

The left want people to believe that Trump is just doing these things as a personal vendetta. He's not! He's saving our country!

He's also working on dealing with the ICC which is the International Criminal Court. I think we don't play this game, but this court likely will try to go after Trump once he's out of office. It's insanity!

Buckle Up, friends! This is the start of revealing truth and also setting the USA on the path the founder's wanted for us to walk. No more globalism.
