Lavender and Laughter

Life is too short to drink tea out of a plastic cup....I created this blog to pour the lavender and laughter of my life into yours.

I am complicated and I am a Marshwiggle (like Puddleglum from Lewis' The Silver Chair). Personality tests don't work on me. I yearn to see Jesus face to face, and to see the love in His eyes. I am learning to walk on water and to be a new person in Christ. I am in love with my husband and baby, and I love the smell of coffee and lavender mixed together.

My Spring Room



This is my spring room! I love it. I love the green walls. I love the white bed. I love the antiques. A lot of this room represents me. I chose the color, sanded and painted the bed, decorated the shelves and hung the plates on the wall. The chair was my birthday present when I turned 23. The dollhouse by the bed represents hours upon hours of my time and thoughts as a little girl (and I still rearrange it every time I come home). Too bad I'm twelve hours away from it all (and yet, maybe that is a good thing, because when I was home I spent way too much time just sitting in the room staring at the color on the walls).
This room has also become the display for any and all Mom's new finds from antique shops and garage sales (hence the more cluttered look).
Vanessa, I hope someday you are able to retrieve that pillar that the plant is sitting on-it's a shame to have left it.
The white dollhouse is an old dilapidated one off a sidewalk, which Mom and I endeavered to mend, paint, and furnish.

the pillar looks great in there! I'm happy to have contributed something to a room that was already sweet.

I love your room, I miss it too! It was so relaxing in there. Well chica, I am so sorry that I didn't get your comment until this morning. I would have called you. I have been on mega pain killers for my knee all weekend so I have pretty much been sleeping in all my spare time. I will give you a call this evening. I lOVE YOU!!!!!
