Scripture Sunday

You have searched me, LORD,

and you know me.

You know when I sit and when I rise;

you perceive my thoughts from afar.

You discern my going out and

my lying down;

you are familiar with all my ways.

Psalm 139:1-3 NIV

Morning Sweet Friends,

I don't know about you but

I love that the Lord is present

everywhere, and knows every-

thing, and that he knows me

intimately, and knows my every

thought. That means I can be

totally honest with Him cause He

already knows my heart and what

I am thinking and I can't hide any

thing from Him, cause He already

knows all my ways...and still

loves me.....what freedom there

is in that......and He even knows

when I go to sleep at night and

when I get up.............

Now... how cool is that??

and he knows all that about

you too..........

and how cool is that??

Have a Blessed Sunday,

Nellie

Thankful Thursday June 22, 2017, Photo affects on Fathers day table pics

Give thanks to the Lord,
for he is good;
his love endures forever.
Psalm 107:1

Summer Greetings
Sweet Friends,

Wow, it is offically Summer but
seems like it has been Summer
for quite awhile already....
weatherwise.

Hope your are enjoying your
summer, think we are more
enduring than enjoying!! lol
It was 100 degrees here the last
few days and muggy as all
get outs...........it's the time of
year when you open the door
early in the morning even, and
it is like opening the oven
door!! Feels yukky!

Not been a super productive
week here, just doing paper
work, bill paying, emailing
and office type work... it is
productive...but you just can't
see it....I prefer the productive
work you can see..........lol
As it tends to spur me on, and
makes me feel more like I have
accomplished something.

Pictures today are with photo
affects.....took too many pics
of the Father's Day table, so
put affects on them for the
fun of it. I could have sworn
I did not take as many pics
this time.........lol
Well on with my Thankful
post...............

I am thankful

that a "bomb" threat at the Port

of Charleston last Friday the 16th.

turned out to be just that... a threat.

I am so thankful for that for all the

normal reasons, but also for our own

personal reasons as some of you

probably know, but others don't that

our daughter and son-in-love live

in charleston, not too far away from
there and could have been in danger.
Scary stuff! So thankful for the
Lord's protection over the kids,
Charleston and S. Carolina.

Today it is so important to pray for
the safety for our families, friends
and country daily......it is really....
a necessity. I truly believe the only
reason we have not had more of
those type of situations is because
the Lord is protecting the U.S
because of the prayers of his
people.......God answers prayer.

Equalized/Posterized affect

that I was able to sort of pace
myself and do a little bit towards
Fathers day everyday from Thurs.

Father's Day Table 2017

Happy Tuesday Sweet Friends,

Hope you all had a great Father's

Day at your house and that your

Hubbies and Fathers were

sufficiently spoiled for the day,

if you had them with you!

They were over here!! We had

a very nice day.

Had planned to show you pics

of our computer/office room

but decided I should show you

our Father's Day table before

we got too far away from that

day........course, it could really

be used for a guys birthday or

summer really.........so guess it

really didn't matter now that I

think about it, but the pics

are already loaded so this is

what you get today!! lol

This table idea all started a few weeks

back when we visited HomeGoods.

I happened on this beautiful Navy

ticking stripe heavy duty gift wrap.....

and.....

these Navy and white striped napkins.

I have been quite enamored with Navy

Blue lately, maybe it was the new

Navy blue outfit that I got for Mother's

Day, lol.....or maybe it is just because I

seem to see it everywhere I go lately. in

stores and in blogland...but the truth is

I have always loved Navy Blue so my

heart beat a lil faster when I saw these

2 fun paper oods... and my mind right

away went to.... this could make a

great Father's Day table.........

especially since I hadn't had any

ideas yet........so knew they had to

come home with me!! lol

and.....
since Navy also has a great coastal
look to it........I decided on a coastal
themed centerpiece.

Since this new gray basket went so
well with the Navy decided to put
all the coastal things inside as it
added nice texture and a more
masculine look. All the coastal
items were borrowed from our
bedroom...........

Knew Navy would be great
with a white tablecloth under
the runner and with white
dishes, of course.

Lil darlings place is a lil bit different,

than the rest and then added the blue
and yellow legos to give her some
thing to do.....

Had the glasses upright but as I

was looking at them I thought the

bottom part looked sort of like a

buoy, so turned them upside

down, and hubby said they

look like a light house.....so

either way it works! lol

Love how the candle light

reflected up on the glass

These round things in the basket
and in the candleholders turned
out to be marbles that I happened to
find at the dollar tree.....
thought they were just smooth
stones like others I have, but
they are quite pretty,Navy,
cobalt blue with some silver.
