Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 31

Today is the very last day of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge! My photo of something that I accomplished is a picture of the first time that I completed a body weight back-squat! This was pre-children, when we were still stationed at Fort Hood. We were just hardly dipping our toes into having a Christian Garage Gym Ministry and we were learning SO much. I can't wait to get back to heavy lifting once our newest addition is born!

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 30

So I have to say that I cheated a little bit for the photo #30 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge. This is a stock photo that I pulled off of a Google search for "camping". One of the things that I plan to do for the month of November is get our first family camping trip going. My husband LOVES hiking and backpacking. He used to go often before he started his career with the Army. I am hopeful that it will go well. 

Side note: Any special recommendations on how to go camping with a 2 year old, a 1 year old, and a 5 month pregnant mom?

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 29

Today is day #29 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge. Can you believe that the month of October is almost over? I can't believe that the holiday season of 2017 is about to start! Anyways, today I am supposed to share something I have on y wall. I decided to share a photo of my mantle above the fireplace. I am just loving how it is coming together!

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 28

My favorite way to meal plan is an easy answer for day 28 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge. I got this little pad of paper on Amazon. There is a box for dinner for each day of the week, a box to write in all of your breakfasts, lunches, and grab bags.  It is quick, easy, and magnetic so it sticks to your fridge! It is really easy to build your grocery shopping list off of this plan.

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 27

Today we are supposed to share about our kids or our husbands for day #27 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge. I decided to share a picture of my boys because I haven't shared much about them during this photo challenge. These are my wonderful boys, William and Henry. They are fabulous, energetic, and persistent. They never fail to amaze me and I thank God every day that He entrusted them to my care.

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 26

Welcome to day #26 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge! 

Today we are supposed to share a photo of our favorite Bible verse. Right now, I feel like God is really teaching me about wisdom and knowing Him. I created this sketch a few weeks after we moved to San Diego because God really placed it on m heart. 

It is now one of my favorite parts of our home!

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 25

I love sharing what I am thankful for which makes #25 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge super easy. I am so very thankful for my husband and how much he LOVES our boys. It doesn't matter how tired he is or what the Army asked of him that day, he ALWAYS makes time for them.

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 24

Today for day #24 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge I am supposed to show you a picture of my favorite snack. Due to being in the middle of my second trimester with my third baby, my favorite snack seems to change daily. Currently I am obsessed with dill pickles, but if you ask me tomorrow that may change!

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 23

Welcome to day #23 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge! Here is my absolute favorite cleaner at the moment. 90% of the other cleaners that I usually use make my morning sickness pretty serious, but a friend recommended this one and I really like it!

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 21

Day #21 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge is to share something that you are never without. I was actually just talking with my husband about this the other day. Because my husband is military I am often alone with my kids. We were realizing the other day that I haven't had a night away from children since we started having children. That means that it has been almost 3 years since I had a break of longer than 2 hours without my kids! (I guess technically I spent two nights away from William, but I was recovering from having Henry so I don't think I'd count that!) Either way, wherever I go you can bet that my partners in crime are with me!

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 20

We are on day #20 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge! Today I am supposed to share with you my Bible reading. I am currently reading in Job. I find that in times of uncertainty, pain, or trials the book of Job can really help you put your issues into perspective. What do you think?

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 19

Welcome to day #19 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge! Today I am supposed to share a photo of my freshly made bed. I will confess the bed was made this morning and I am writing this in the afternoon so the bed isn't "freshly made" but we are going to take it anyways.

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 18

So today is day #18 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge. The challenge list says that it is supposed to be #ThrowbackThursday but it is only Wednesday... I am going to roll with it and post my throwback anyways. This was the very first picture Brian and I ever took together. This picture was taken after two years of dating and about a week before we got engaged. The one thing that I really regret is that we only have THREE pictures from the entire time before we were married! I try to be better about it now, but if I could go back and do one thing really differently that would probably be it!

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 17

Today is day #17 in the the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge which means it is time to share with you my favorite thing about fall! So for me it is 100% the colors. I just love the rich hues. I think I would decorate like this all year round if it was socially acceptable.

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 16

Today is day #16 in the the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge which means it is time to share with you what is on my desk right now! I set books to the side that I really want to read. Then I get more books to review or someone recommends a new book... that is how this stack ALWAYS happens. I don't think this stack has ever had less than 8 books in it.

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 15

Day #15 of the #HomemakingMinistries photo challenge is one goal for this month. 

My big goal in the next couple of weeks is to assess, categorize, and organize our children's books! I really want to find a good system so I can take stock of what all we have and which subjects need more attention.

Homemaking Ministry Photo Challenge: Day 13

Today is day #13 of the #HomemakingMinistriesphoto challenge. 

Today you are supposed to share a picture of your husband. This is an old picture from before my second son was born, but it is still one of my favorites of my husband. He can fix or build just about anything and he is teaching our boys to do the same. I love his industrious spirit and his creative solutions! 

(Did you notice how William is just mesmerized by him?!)
