Ten on Tuesday

January 24, 2012 by Sara Haynes 7 Comments

Um.
Hello again strangers 🙂
Yikes.
Somehow almost an entire month has come and gone again without so much as a peep from me.
We’d better fix that with a little Ten on Tuesday randomness.

Merry Christmas!

December 28, 2011 by Sara Haynes 8 Comments

This year we spent Christmas in our jammies (with throw up bowls nearby) snuggled together watching Christmas movies. 

Awesome timing for the flu to hit. 

Ugh.

And so, even though it’s now the 28th and our Christmas decorations are already down and put away (yup- I’m one of those crazies that needs her house back right after Christmas) I still wanted to come on here and wish you all a Merry Christmas.

Handmade for the boy

December 13, 2011 by Sara Haynes 16 Comments

I love handmade gifts.
The time and heart put into them just make them so very special.
One day I dream of being able to knit beautiful gifts like her.
But, for now I am happy to complete simple sewing projects like this:

I wanted to make something special for Evan this year.
I always find it SO hard to find projects for boys that are easy and that I think he will like….
So, when I saw this idea on Pinterest I was super excited!

What is it you ask?…..

I love Jesus, my guy Chris + our four. We seek joy. Homeschool. Adventure together. Mess up and start again.

"And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them."
Romans 8:28

Ok friends! This is your personal invitation to ju Ok friends! This is your personal invitation to jump in with me to read through your Bible in a year. I know that for me, the years I’ve had a “plan” have been the years I have most consistently spent daily quiet time with Jesus. 

The plan I’m following has a portion of the Old Testament, Psalm, Proverb and New Testament to read each day. And it’ll be the best 10 mins you spend each day! 💗 You do not need the specific bible I’m using, I’ll have the readings posted so you can use whatever you have! 

If I’ve learned anything in 2020 it’s that I long for community. Yes, I can read through on my own this year.... but how much richer would it be to do this with friends. The bible tells us “As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.” 

I know I have experienced God in amazing ways through the words & experiences of friends. We were made for community! 

SO-I’ve created a private FB group for us to have the space to encourage, share and find accountability as we dig into God’s word in 2021!

Would love for you to join me. 💗
Fav crew right there. Fav crew right there.
Me no likey the fog. 🤦‍♀️❄️ Pretty to Me no likey the fog. 🤦‍♀️❄️
Pretty to look at, sure, but I like to see when I’m skiing. 🤷‍♀️
A brand new bible for a brand new year. Chris and A brand new bible for a brand new year. Chris and the kids all use YouVersion for their bible plans but I am partial to a physical book- just something about feeling those pages as I read. 
If anyone wants to join me please send me a message! I’d love to spend 2021 in the word with you! 💗

Our first Christmas together in the mountains. ❤ Our first Christmas together in the mountains. ❤️
This moment. I look forward to it every year. Ever This moment. I look forward to it every year. Everyone else is in bed while I sit here in the dark- with only the light from the tree. My heart is so full of anticipation. Wonder. Joy. 

I always think of that first Christmas night while I sit here by the glow of the tree and see the gifts under its branches. I think of all those years ago on that eve of our Jesus’ birth. I imagine how all of heaven must have felt the same as I do tonight- KNOWING the gift we were about to receive on that wonderful night. Dear friends, may all our souls feel their worth tonight as we remember who HE is. 
💗

Oh holy night
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and error, pining
'Til He appeared and the soul felt it's worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn'
Fall on your knees, oh, hear the Angels' voices
Oh, night divine, oh, night when Christ was born
Oh, night divine, oh, night, oh night divine
It’s been a fun month with our guy Candycane. I It’s been a fun month with our guy Candycane. I think I will treasure these sweet days of fun and excitement forever. #ourelfcandycane
