A Few of My Favorite Things...

In the spirit of 'Thanksgiving" I've decided to list the things I'm thankful for in my home. So often I can easily come up with a list of a hundred things I'd like to do to the house. I've been inspired by my sister's post about her favorite things in her home, so I've decided to list my top 10 favorite THINGS in my home. It was actually a fun exercise for me and I realized that it didn't matter how expensive things were or weren't, it was more about the way they made me feel and the meaning behind them. So here goes....

Top 9 Favorite Things in My Home:
(It was going to be 10, but I accidentally deleted the photo and can't find it)
My Gourds (they are some of my fall decorations about to be replace with Christmas, but I love them).

My Dollar Store glasses (aren't they cool and only $1)

Ella's name on canvases in her room.

Our family photo wall.


Pillow on our bed. I hated my wall color until this pillow came along and pulled it all together, plus I like our initials on it.
Diapering area in Isaac's room. I made the diaper holder and love it because it's especially handy. Got the starfish and sand dollars when we went to Longboat Key this summer...good memories!


Dining room table. Even though it doesn't get much use, I still love it!


Floral arrangement. Instead of flowers for Valentine's Day I told Jason that I'd rather have an old floral arrangement reworked so I could use it in this space. It's the gift that keeps on giving :).


Ella's Art Gallery. It's in her room and displays all of her latest artwork. I could probably change it out daily with the number of creations she comes up with.
