it's the little things:: stripey straws & acting like a kid
Little things for the week::
a happy arrangement of striped straws on the coffee table
coloring pictures for the neighborhood kids (and feeling like kids ourselves)
talking about baby names & eagerly awaiting our gender reveal!
popping packaging from my latest shipment of canvases
not pictured::
listening to the pouring rain outside
buying new bras and finally getting the right size (for now!!). Ah, relief.
a three day weekend up ahead!
I designed a new button for the Little Things linkup. I'd love if you'd share it on your sidebar, or at least in your little things posts! Snag one below or on my right sidebar.
loooooooooooving that first photo!!!
ReplyDeleteTwo of my favorite joys in life are colorful, striped straws and underwear that fits!!
ReplyDeleteI knew we were friends for a reason. ;)
DeleteI've added my link- because this is such a great idea! But didn't link specifically to my post; I assumed it was some sort of sign-up before giving the link. Apologies. I've tried to delete but can't find a way too! Sorry!
ReplyDeletefantastic idea, though!
I'll delete your link, Kelli. Go ahead and add your permalink! :) (Instructions in the post above if you need them!) Thanks for linking up with me!
DeleteStripey straws are so fun!! And I love listening to the rain!
ReplyDeleteI got some sort of error when I tried to link up, but the link went through, just not a thumbnail picture. :( Oh well.
Picking out baby names is sooo much fun!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
I'm about to add your new button into my side bar. =)

ReplyDeletei've been meaning to ask you - what is your blog width set at? i have a netbook and your pictures & sidebar ads are always cut off for me :-(

ReplyDeleteHi I am a new follower and LOVE your blog! This post was absolutely beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteThe stripey straws make me happy :)
ReplyDeleteLove ya girl!
I've been following your blog for several months now, and finally got the courage to link up with the little things! I love reading about how others are finding the simple blessings that God puts in our life everyday if we are thankful enough to notice them. I also appreciate your posts about embracing "home" no matter where you are. My husband (since June!) and I are living and teaching in Indonesia (we're from Oregon) so I can relate! I can always expect to read something encouraging and authentic on your blog, so thanks! :)
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh....finding a bra that fits the new pregnancy body is the best blessing ever!!! lol! Glad you found one. And personally, if you have a girl...the name Sarah is awesome. ;-) hee hee!
ReplyDeleteThose are fantastic little things...so fantastic that they are almost big things. ;) Love them!
ReplyDeleteSo fun to pick out baby names! We had picked way more girls names than boys, and lo and behold we ended up having a boy! :)
