One year hiatus
Amazing how time flies. One day you are holding your newborn with aspirations to be a wonderful blogger, songwriter, crafter, mother etc. and another you're sitting in your living room (after 2 moves) while the 1 year old and 3 year old are napping thinking, maybe I should resurrect that old thing.
I've flippantly wasted away my afternoon reading online articles, researching 10K running training schedules (which I will start training for next week), and watching tutorials on how to smock children's clothing. I've decided to pursue the 10K and scrap the smocking idea. I've finally ended up back here at ellielaveer.com in one last effort to avoid the lunch dishes waiting to be cleaned in the kitchen.
I think I'm over my "coolest blogger ever" complex and am just hoping to share stories, links, recipes and pictures with those I love.
I hope to take you on a voyage with us as we fix up our 1950's brick ranch on the cheap and maybe even share before and after pictures as I try to get each room into a bit more order. I'll share new songs that I'm working on and ideas. I hope to even show you some of the finds that Andy and I grab at thrift, consignment and antique stores. And of course, not to be forgotten are the sweet pictures and stories of the 2 most beautiful boys in the world, Deacon and Owen who are growing up all too fast.

Ellie, I love the picture of your boys playing in their church clothes. How cute!

Thanks, Devona.
Yeah, It’s so funny how kids wear clothes. There’s always something that’s out of place, or down too low or falling off. And when you get them dressed up, it’s amplified. And completely adorable.
Oh, Devona- I found a great thing for Olivia at the used clothing store too! I’m so excited about it. They are pink and white chucks. I’m so happy I can return the favor since you passed along the blue ones to me last year.

oh yes, visiting is definately an option! We have a large house now with a nice guest bedroom with your name on it! You would have exclusive use of our oh so 1950’s pink tile bathroom with floral wallpaper! I’ve been thinking of purchasing this poster: http://www.topatoco.com/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=TO&Product_Code=WON-BEARDS&Category_Code=WON
just to offset the extreme girliness of that room. That’s another post, I guess…
Heidi
