I had this written yesterday but we got home late and I was exhausted!
Ok so lets head into the Great Room. Most newer homes have these. It is a big room just off the kitchen usually. Ours has a fireplace in the corner which of course we have to turn the air on to use..welcome to Florida! The mantel used to have beanie bears across the top now it sits empty waiting for my next revelation of decorating! Above it is a black iron oval mirror and two black candle sconces. Oh wait I neglected to mention that my walls are BRIGHT yellow. Happy face yellow is what I call it. Ok back to the fireplace. We have a grayish marble surround and hearth. On the hearth is a basket with a blue ribbon that holds everything and propped up against the fireplace is the canvas with our family vision painted on. I want to get this above the fireplace. I don't know yet where I will move the mirror and sconces..maybe across the room. Next to the fireplace is my fake ficus tree. I love these and they went on sale at Garden Ridge one year for $16 so I ran out and bought two.. I was so excited! Then there is the sliding glass door that opens out onto the pond. We have vertical blinds on this door and they still look nice. Its a pain to open and close them because somehow they got bent the wrong way one time and now you have to pretty much manually move them when you want to open them. In the next corner sits our stereo and tapes and CDs. I really need to find a small table for the stereo to sit on and also some hideaway storage for our tapes and CDs. I have microwave cart in my garage that I might end up using. Then you have our table and an eclectic mix of chairs. Our table technically only seeks four but with 7-8 people in the house we have had to add different chairs. I love this table. We got it for Prince Charming's apartment when we were dating. As a bachelor he saw no need for a table.. I of course was appalled and thought for sure I could never date a man who did not have a table.... I knew I was going to marry this man so I picked out his (our) table. Its got the butcher block looking top with white legs and the chairs are white, with butcher block looking seats... VERY country. We have decided that our next purchase is actually going to be two of those long buffet tables, you know the ones you can get at walmart for like $25? We are going to cover those with a pretty table cloth and then try to find chairs that we can either paint or cover to give it a pulled together look. Im also going to get a rug or cloth to put under the table to have a visual separation of the family room and eating area. Above the table I have two prints I picked up at Garden Ridge for like $5 a piece. They are homey scenes with quilts in them. I just adore these prints. As you walk past the entrance to our bedroom and then the kitchen you come to a low bar area. This looks into the kitchen. The counter on this bar is blue marble looking. It is very cluttered with stuff. Soon I want to have it cleared off so we can put food up there buffet style when we need to. Maybe leave some pictures and candles stuff thats easy to remove. Underneath the bar is my grandaddy's old desk. This desk is beautiful dark wood. He cut a piece of glass to go over the top so it would not get scratched. When he passed away I immediately asked if I could have the desk. Grandaddy and Grandma got it when they first got married so I has a lot of sentimental value for me and the great thing is its practical and useful..not just clutter! I have started to clean the stuff off the desk. Eventually on top of the desk I want a desk calendar, a binder with household information, the wooden thingy with 31 slots to hold out bills, and a cup with pens and pencils in it. This will be homemanagement central. I might have to move the desk if I make the bar above it a buffet but we will cross that road when we get to it. Next is a wall that has a small table with pictures on top. It has two drawers that hold who knows what. It has the butcher block like top and dark green legs. I want to spray pain it white or blue but have not gotten around to it. Above the table is a pretty country home scene. I dont know how to describe it except to say in the picture is this big brown buffet and on top is a lot of blue and cream containers and one blue and cream water can with a bouquet of wild flowers in it. Underneath are country kitchen essentials. A washboard, a cutting board, some bowls, a few more containers... stuff like that. Above the table in the picture is a sign that say "God Bless our home." I really like this picture.. in case you could not yet tell Im way into country stuff. In the middle of our living room..ok Im going to tell you the middle of our living room right now. One couch is my big blue couch it is sitting caddy corner to the fireplace facing the sliding glass door. The other couch is a light colored couch with pinks and blues swirled in it is facing the table with its back to the fireplace because thats where it went so we could pull the sofa bed out when my friends came to stay while my daddy was sick. It used to sit caddy corner to the fireplace facing the blue couch. It was very cute and cozy. Our coffee table sits up against the sliding glass door. It used to sit between the two couches. Now one reason I have not put everything back into position is because the couch that does not match is going to find itself in the library/school room soon where DH's exercise bike sits. The blue couch will be turned to face the fireplace and I will have two other chairs facing the blue couch flanking the fireplace. The coffee table will go in the middle. Another thing in the middle of the room right now is clothes. Someone just gave me three big bags of clothes for the children and I have been sorting through them. They should be put up by tomorrow. I really enjoy this room and soon hope to make it the most inviting room in the house. I want everyone to be drawn here for family time.
Well Im going to save the bedrooms for tomorrow. I dont like posting on Saturdays but I do want to finish the tour..if anyone is even reading it! :) I am hoping to use my mom's digital camera and I will take pictures so you all can see what I am talking about. I like looking at pictures of others' homes. It makes me feel like I know them! LOL.

My Home Part 1
Ok here we go. I was thinking I could take some digitals but its not going to happen. So I will have to refer back to all the adjectives I learned in school!
Lets start at the front door and work our way back, shall we? Come in the front door you are in our mini foyer Its actually rather nice. It has wood linouleum and a small picture that says, "God Bless Our Home". To the right is the playroom. There is a big ugly couch in there. I throw blankets on it but... well... its the playroom and they always end up being used for a tent or a cape or a gown... It has rips in the cushions. I am trying to find a new home for old faithful. Its actually a very sturdy, well made couch, just needs a good cover. In front of the couch you will find a small tv stand and tv. There is a VCR and a DVD player on the shelves. Normally around this you find all sorts of videos and DVDs scattered around. Not to mention wires everywhere. There are boxes of toys lining the walls and scattered around the floor. In the closet you will find bins of movies. Soon the TV will be moved out of this room and it will be just a play room with plenty of space to play. Now the walls would be cute if I could finish them.... The top is a country blue and the bottom a soft yellow and there is a teddy bear border around the middle. Now having never done painting two different colors or wallpapering before I went about this all wrong. I have blue where yellow should be in some spots and yellow where blue should be in others. Also we ran out of border and I had to go get some more. My challenge is to finish this room by October 15. Look closely at the carpet. There are only three rooms in this house with carpet that looks as good as this. Its a light brown color. I thought it was darker until we moved the cats and the kids in. :( LOL The toys around the room are about to get organized into bins. I have a twelve bin system set up on paper and if the toy does not fall into that catagory out it is going!
To the left of the front door is our library/school room. We have about 4 bookcases (2 tall, 1 medium, and 1 short) backed up against the far wall. On the next wall is a desk COVERED with papers and books. This will be my desk one day when I get it cleared off. Next to the desk is a wall that has a banner across the top that says, "Look what we made this week!" Underneath I hang up all the projects the children did during the week during preschool. Across the room is a recliner rocker and next to that is my husbands exercise bike. In the middle of the room is a small table and chairs that the children use. I would like to paint this room the same yellow that is in the playroom. Also the carpet needs to be replaced with wood laminate as the cats tend to get sick in this room and also use this room when they dont want to use the litter box. (See I told you I was going to be transparent!). The desk needs to be cleared off. The recliner rocker is going to move to another room where it will be better utilized. And the exercise bike is going in our room so hubby can ride while he plays his computer games. And I hope to get some shelving and some more bookcases for this room. Target date of completion for everything that can be done for little to no money..October 10.
Walk down our little hallway. There is a big wall there that will soon be covered in pictures of all the children who have lived in our home. There will be potraits and candid shots. I am also looking for the verse
Psalms 127:3 Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
Psalms 127:4 As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth.
Psalms 127:5 Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
To go on this wall. Across from it is a pretty little country plaque that says, "In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:6" Underneath that is a white whicker table with a glass shelf top. It has pictures on top and underneath some pretty bowls. Down the hall a little ways is the bookshelf that houses puzzles, coloring books and crayons. This bookshelf is moving into the library soon. The carpet in this hallway needs to be replaced as well thanks to the kitties. I would like to add some more pictures and Bible verse plaques and artwork to this wall. I LOVE having God's word all over the walls of my house! There is no doubt when you walk in that you are in a Christian's home. Target date for completion of the hallway... October 5.
I will stop here because it seems my tour might get a little long. Tomorrow we will explore the children's rooms and the family room/dining room.
Im excited because it has been freecylce central here lately as people have been at my door constantly to pick stuff up. Hubby said Saturday he will sit down with me and try to figure out a place for all the things we have to keep.
On another exciting note. I should get the adoption application Monday and if we can get all our paperwork turned in by the end of the month we might be eligible to finalize the adoption on the girls by CHRISTMAS!! :)

Homemaking Beautiful..from another blogger.
Hi guys real quick wanted to post a link to another blog done by a great woman. I met Chautona at the Beautiful Womanhood message board and always looked forward to reading her messages. Im so excited she has a blog. She is witty and a lot of fun but also a strong Christian who is not afraid to stand up for what she believes in. Or at least that is what I know of her over there.. :)

Being the Example
Here is something I have been pondering. I actually posted part of this on the message board that led me to this discussion.
I believe we are biblically mandated to be "keepers at home". I want to do a study on when exactly women quit being keepers at home and how long did it take society to reap the consequences of it. I dont know when I will do this or how.. just something on my to do list. :) Anyways we have come to accept as a way of life wives and mothers in the workforce. Its accepted not only in society but also in our churches. One thing we cant do is beat women over the head and tell them they should be at home. The church wont back that up and will come up with some "cultural" reason that does not apply to us anymore. Now I have said before and will say again... some women do have to work. My mom had to work. My dad was disabled and there was no way he could support us. I have a friend who has to work while her husband finishes school. He is home with their son during the day and she is home with him at night he is doing well and thriving. Her heart is at home and thats where she will one day be. Im talking about women who have able bodied husbands who work to afford luxuries. Oh they wont call them that. They will call them necessities. They have to have the brand new house, the brand new car, the thousands of dollars vacations, the designer clothes...and so on. I know. I used to be this woman. Oh I always wanted to be a stay home wife but I sure did not want my spending to have to decrease! Anyway, I digress. I want to speak of a way we can show women the way home. Beauty, attention to detail, and happiness. If we work to make our homes beautiful and open them up to others they will see the benefit of being a homemaker. When they say to you, "Oh I wish my home could be this inviting!" Share with them that it can and how. If we pay attention to detail when we dress our children and take time to prepare our husbands clothes other people will see them. "Oh how I wish I had time to make my little boy look that well groomed." Smile and tell them they do and share with them how. At work other men will look at your husband and see how nicely pressed his clothes are and maybe catch a whiff of his lunch and wonder why their wives cant do that. He can share with them your little secret. But above all we can make this women come home by the happiness they see on our faces and that of our families. If we pour ourselves into a beautiful home and a nice looking family and still have a smile on our face believe me other women will notice. I think that deep down in every women is a desire to be at home! I was definitely convinced of this when I turned in my two week notice almost two years ago. I was coming home in hopes that soon our license would be approved and we would have foster children. It took another five months but it happened. When people found out I was leaving to come home full time the reactions ranged from envious to hostile. But the overwhelming thing I heard from all the women was, "I wish I could do that!" It has been rough. I wish that somehow I had known when I first got married what I know now. I am just now discovering that I am missing the beauty of homemaking. That means I have almost five years of lost years of being a wife to make up for. I have accumulated lots of JUNK and even more bad habits. But I am praying everyday that God will help me change one thing that day. Be it not leaving a job half done or picking up after myself. I can only go one day at a time. My bad habits and clutter did not accumulate over night and they will not be gone over night but slowly and surely I see results and improvements and for that I am grateful. So here is my challenge. Pick one woman in your life who you think would benefit from being home. Begin to pray for her and then begin to set an example for her. Show her how exciting it is to be a homemaker. How you dont have to be rich to have beauty in your home. To have nicely dressed children and a well groomed husband. Just desire. And challenge yourself to begin to develop habits of beauty, order, attention to detail, and happiness. I will be praying for you all and please keep me in your prayers. Tomorrow I think I want to walk you through my house and tell you the truth. Im going to let you in on the messiness, the clutter, the stress.. and then tell you the changes taking place. Make sure to check back it will be me being transparent for you.
Titus 2:3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behavior as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; Titus 2:4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,
Titus 2:5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.

Family Before "Stuff"!
PHew. Just got back from bowling. Prince Charming, my brother, my friend, and I are on a Christian Bowling League. Im so excited to be back. I bowled on this league for two years and then took a year off because we added so many children. Well we still have a lot of children but we think we can still bowl... :) My mom came up there with the children tonight to watch us... I dont know if she will venture there again! LOL..she had a time of it. For the most part my children are great. But sometimes (especially with grandma!) they can really act up. Who knows.
Well anyway.
This is our week on the beauty of homemaking. Have you read the story of creation? Have you read the story of building the temple? Both of these stories stand out to me because they are detailed. God is detailed. God likes beauty. All you have to do is catch a butterfly. Examine her wings and all the colors. She is detailed and beautiful, just the way God made her. Using nature as an example. Everything in nature has a job, a purpose. Nature does not stray from the job God has given it, it simply does it. . This is what makes nature so orderly. It just does what its created to do. We as women have an important job. God has created us to instill order and beauty into our homes. If you cant walk across the floor to greet your husband after he has had a long day at the office then your home is not orderly or beautiful. If your children cant dance across the floor to a favorite song or cant find a place to sit and look at a book or change dolly's clothes or race thier cars then your home is not orderly or beautiful. I have been on massive clutter detail lately. This is hard for me because I am a sentimental junkie. But shouldn't my family be more important to me than stuff!?! I got rid of a lot of knick knacks and dust collectors because I want to display more pictures of my family and because I want my house to look more open and inviting. I got rid of closets full of stuffed animals because I want to make the childrens' closets accessible to them. They truly need to learn how to put away thier own clothes and pick out thier own clothes. Im moving into the school room/library next because I want it to be a place the children and I enjoy being. Soon the playroom will be just that... a playroom. We are moving the couch and TV out of there. There will be wide open space for the children to play. I dont have any sage advice on how to declutter other than to just do it! My house is a scary place right now. I have boxes and bags of stuff waiting to be picked up by freecyclers but I can see the end result and I have to tell you I am positively giddy! Decluttering is what has happened as I decided to put my family before "stuff". Before I understood this concept we had piles of "stuff" everywhere. Im not going for the perfect house. Just a nice, comfortable, inviting house. A house we enjoy occupying and cant wait to ask friends to join us. A house where family comes before material possesions. A house that is beautiful and orderly and God-honoring!
Proverbs 31:27 She looketh well to the ways of her household, and eateth not the bread of idleness.
