One of the small projects my husband and I pecked away at over the summer was giving our laundry room a makeover. I'm going to be completely honest and just put it out there. This laundry room.... it's the bane of my existence. I wish I were exaggerating. Not only is it the single most hardworking room in our house, but it's also the … [Read more...]
Five Great Children’s Books About Fall
With the start of a new school year a few months ago, I am back at my weekly role at our kids' school, helping for my third year as their library coordinator. As I've mentioned before, this is a volunteer position, but it still requires a good chunk of my time, which I don't mind. I love helping in this capacity, since my first love was and … [Read more...]
A Cozy Bedroom Retreat for Fall
Can I confess something? Most of the time I feel like my bedroom is a bit like a war zone. Between the piles of "I'm too tired to hang you back up" clothing or the equally monstrous "I folded you but I don't want to put you away" heaps, I sometimes feel like I would rather NOT hang out in my bedroom. Which is really a shame because a … [Read more...]
Home Office Refresh
Earlier this summer, when I gave my family room a bit of a refresh by moving around some furniture, it sort of set off a chain reaction. It's very much like the domino effect. You can't just move one thing around and not have it impact all the other rooms simultaneously. It just does. So when I took the bookcases out of my office, it … [Read more...]
Welcoming Fall in Your Outdoor Spaces
Fall is one of those seasons that makes it so easy to love. I'm not really a huge fan of hot, humid weather, so I welcome those first cool, milder fall temperatures. It's also easy to find inspiration in outdoor decorating for fall because nature is pretty much screaming, "IT'S FALL!," all around you. From the bright colors of the trees' … [Read more...]
A Camping Birthday Party
My oldest daughter turned 11 last month. That's right, E-L-E-V-E-N. Hold the phone, this girl is growing up way too stinkin' fast. Believe what they tell you about having kids. You blink, they grow. And it doesn't stop! I have sort of an unwritten rule of thumb about throwing birthday parties in our family. Each year you get a … [Read more...]
To Every Thing There is a Season
We've officially made it to the season of fall. Like all seasons, it brings with it change, some good, some bad. The start of the season included the celebration of a life so special and dear to our family. My precious grandmother's 5 year battle with cancer finally came to an end. She passed away peacefully, surrounded by her loved ones. And I … [Read more...]
A Month of Rest
You know the old expression, "time flies when you're having fun?" Well, I for one can certainly attest that this indeed is true. In case you didn't notice, the webwaves were a little on the quiet side over here at Have a Little Faith blog last month. I took the month of August off from blogging and spent some much-needed family time with … [Read more...]
Easy Front Door Makeover
Do you ever have one of those projects that seems to stay on your "to-do" list waaaaaay longer than it should? Don't worry, you're so not alone. For months now I've been wanting to re-paint our front door. I actually purchased the paint back in December, after I got a gift card for Christmas - yep, buying paint actually brings me great … [Read more...]
The Art of Reinvention
Well, summer is officially here! Swimming, popsicles, lightning bugs, bare feet and sleeping in. Seems like we wait all year for these 3 months to get here! I've been reflecting a lot these past few weeks about what we went through last summer at this time in losing out to the farmhouse of our dreams, and how different our lives may have been if … [Read more...]
