I will Praise You in the storm!

I will continue my posts on Best Friends, because lord knows I have some GREAT friends and family.

I can not go into any details on the internet and a lot of you know, but we are in the midst of a storm. I have faith and my family and right now that is the most important thing in my life. That is the one thing that NOONE can take away from me.

I will praise YOU in the storm. That's all I can do.

My prayer today is for peace and strength. I mean the strength that only comes from above. I love you lord Jesus and I know you will help us make it through!

Can you ever have enough...

Best Friends???
I decided on a topic that I would do for a couple of entries. I am so blessed to have good friends. I don't mean just friends . I mean really, really good friends. Friends that would be by my side in a minute if the need arose. Friends that have laughed with me and cried with me. I have friends that have seen me at my worst and seen me at my best. I am BLESSED.

First, I will introduce you to Kim. Kim has been my best friend since at least 5 year old kindergarten. What would I do without her? Growing up we spent countless nights together. We would stay up half the night. We would play in her sister's closet because she had the coolest clothes. Kristy would be ready to kill us!! It did not matter how well we put the clothes back in closet, she always knew when we had been there.

Kim and I graduated highschool together and went to church together. Kim has lived in every corner of this country and we have never missed a beat. We are always still best friends. We do not talk everyday. For that matter, we do not talk every week. We talk when we can, but we have the talent of picking up where we left off. She had 4 beautiful kids and a great husband. (Yep, I said 4 kids...)

To say that Kim knows me is an understatement. I swear if I ever had a sister, I imagine that she would be Kim. Someone who knows me as well as I know myself. Someone who can be honest with me. (Sometimes I think that we really must be related).

Anyway, I love you Kim and I do not know what I would do without you. There is just not enough time in the week to hang out.

Chair

I bought this chair over the weekend at one of my favorite places to shop. It did not always look like this. I have posted the before pictures below. I really love the way it turned out. What do you think??? I painted it with some leftover black paint that I had. I ran to Hancocks and bought some fabric and covered the cushion while the paint was drying. It was really fun to do!

Another before! Yes, thats my dog!
