PIC OF THE WEEK: Thanks for cooperating
Cousins got together after a long time.
They were all playing nicely and happily.
I just don't understand why only one smiled for this picture.
Maybe it's the full tummy from the buffet...
or maybe the humidity that day.
Whatever it is, thanks for cooperating! (Insert sarcasm here)

Sunday Selah: Be Thou My Vision
Be Thou My Vision
Be Thou my vision,
O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me,
save that Thou art
Thou my best thought,
by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping,
Thy presence my light.
Be Thou my wisdom,
and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and
Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father,
and I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling,
and I with Thee one.
Riches I heed not,
nor man's empty praise,
Thou mine inheritance,
now and always:
Thou and Thou only,
first in my heart,
High king of heaven,
my treasure Thou art.
High king of heaven,
my victory won,
May I reach heaven's joys,
O bright heaven's sun!
Heart of my own heart,
whatever befall,
Still be my vision,
O ruler of all.
The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.
Zephaniah 3:17

I ♥ Faces: Crazy, Silly, Funny Face
"Beata, smile for mommy."
"Oh no, not too close!"
My silly little girl.
I don't think she's camera shy.

Sunday Selah: I KNOW THE MASTER OF THE WIND
I KNOW THE MASTER OF THE WIND
by The Hemphills
My boat of life sails on a troubled sea
Whenever there's a wind in my sail.
But I have a friend who watches over me
When the breeze turns into a gale.
I know the Master of the wind.
I know the Maker of the rain.
He can calm a storm, make the sun shine again.
I know the Master of the wind.
Sometimes I soar like an eagle through the sky
Above the peaks my soul can be found.
An unexpected storm may drive me from the heights
Brings me low, but never brings me down.
He can calm a storm, make the sun shine again
I know the Master of the wind.
He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still.
Psalms 107:29

Summer, Summer, even for a day...
It has been a cold Summer, and we have seen more rain than sun this season.
So when there's sun and warmth outside, you just have to make the most out of it.
Here's what we did in July.
An afternoon at Rotary Park for Canada Day.
Here, we hit the splash park after the kids' swimming lessons.
And here, snowcones and sandpit at the zoo.
(Beata's mouth is blue from the snowcone)
Can't wait for more sunshine and warmth.
'Wonder what we'll do in August?

DIY Project #1: Re-upholstered Dining Chairs
First DIY project.
'A little nervous.
A few mistakes (I'm not telling where!).
A bit of muscle pain after.
Three encouraging, excited children.
One impressed husband.
It's a good start.
I'm liking it!
Before:
(ugly pink; dirty and filthy)
After:
(Classic paisley pattern; clean and crisp)
All because of this fabric I found at Fabricland's "Last Call" sale.
$4.00 a meter.
Less than $20 spent to reupholster all my six dining room chairs.
20-30 minutes per chair later...I have good-looking dining chairs.
Do you like my DIY?
