It is a typical spring day: wind blowing a 100 miles per hour (ok, maybe I am exaggerating a little bit.. not a lot, just a little) :-) Any way, it is very cold outside, so the wood stove is burning and crackling merrily.
My outfit for today:
Tiered skirt- wonderful Christmas gift from dear Mama several years ago (yes, tiered skirts are the best for windy days, by the way.... ;-) lol) I also had to mend it this morning so it didn't have a big gaping hole in the front... Poor skirt! It has seen better days.
Light blue T shirt
Once again, no shoes
Hair- simple half up in clip from Wal-mart.
Also thought I would post a pic of what I did to myself a couple days ago. I burnt my arm on a baking sheet! Ouch! It still hurts and it has been... 4 days, I think. It has finally scabbed over. Hopefully it will heal soon. I went to bed with a bag of ice strapped on my arm, it was hurting still. It is a much darker red and is located on the middle of my arm between my wrist and elbow. Fun... ;-) lol
Also, for my dear friends who will be totally shocked... I GOT BANGS!!!! Yes, I can invision some of you trying to pick your jaws up off of the floor. I know, Sarah who would NEVER cut her hair. Sarah who went and got it layered, has now gotten bangs. Ok, ok, stop gaping. ;-) lol I am sitting here wondering who will be the most surprised of my friends...
So, our dear friend, Caity Spencer, had gone to a hair cutting shop type deal where she learned all the proper ways of styling and cutting, etc. We had her over and got our hair done. I had a simple trim, and then had her add some wispy bangs. I am very pleased with the effect and so far haven't regretted it! :-) Don't think I will, either. Mama had a perm done, and Rebecca just had a trim.
So, here is a closer view of newly added addition. :-)
I would also like to ask for prayers for some friends of ours. They are out of town right now for a few reasons. I don't want to say names, so right now I am just calling them the "Faith Family". They are being so faithful right now. So, please keep them in your prayers. Thank you!
God bless!
In Christ Alone!

Sarah!!! What did you do to your beautiful hair! Ahhh, well not to say that I do not like your bangs, They look VERY becoming. But what ever gave you the notion, to do that?!! Oh I'm only teasing, they are beautiful! Love ya~
CHELLE!! I got bangs, that is all.. trust me, it is still as thick as ever. ;) lol
Um, I don't know. The idea just popped into my head, so I asked mom and daddy what they thought. They thought it sounded like a nice idea, so, viola! I did have time to think about it for a long time, and then, once I Decided I really wanted it done, I could hardly wait for the day to come!
Thanks, though. I am glad you like them and I am glad they look nice. :)
Love ya!!!!!!! Me
Thanks so much for your prayers! All is well!

Very pretty apron! BTW- I love your bangs! At one time I had considered getting some very similar in style to the ones you now have. :-) Beautiful!

Dear Sarah,
Wonderful outfit! I love the apron you made.
How wonderful that you could just make it by looking at a picture!
I wish I had the patience to do that! :)
Happy Spring...
Hannah Elise..
Wow! Very cute. I *love* your new bangs!

I love your tiered skirt - so pretty! Did you make it?
Love,
Rachel
Wow, thank you everyone!! I didn't expect so many comments. My eyes bugged out when I saw how many had commented. Thanks!
Addie, Thanks! It would be neat if you got bangs. I love your blog, BTW! Funny how we both have "musings" in ours!
Hannah,
Thank you! I am afraid I can't take all the credit for the apron. My Grandma did a lot too. It was fun though. I had already made a dress, so I just cut out from there. Pretty easy. :)
Thanks Atlanta! I have really enjoyed them so far... if they will lie right!
Rachel,
Thank you! No, I didn't make it. Momma did. I do make a lot of my own skirts, but Momma made this one for me for Christmas several years ago. It has been worn out, poor thing! Been a favorite of mine. :)
Thanks again everyone!!!!!
God bless,
In Christ alone,
Sarah
*gasp!* Your Beautiful hair! What did you do! Oh, Sarah...
JK, it looks really cute! It took a while to get used too, though.
Hey! Do I get anything for taking the picture of dear J and the bull??????
Love,
THE Sister
"I smile because you're my sister.... And laugh because there is NOTHING you can do about it!!! LOL
Your layered skirt is so pretty!
I love you hair too, so long and gorgeous!
God Bless,
Miss Laurie :)
Thanks Miss Laurie! I really love the skirt. It is easy to wear and super comfy!

Now, I have done my duty. :) =D LOL!!
Love you!!!!!!!!!! Me
Hello! I'm new to your blog (I found it through Feminine Farmgirl)but I thought your skirt and apron were both very pretty, modest, and feminine. You must be very creative to just look at pictures and make it look like that. good job! :) May the Lord bless your day, Frannie
Thanks for stopping by, Frannie! I have visited your blog a couple times, so I guess now I need to leave a comment, too! :)
Thanks for the comment about my outfit. Yes, I love anything creative and making an apron without a pattern is one of them! :)
Thanks again!
In Christ Alone,
Sarah
Sarah! I really like your bangs...'course I've already seen them, but I still think they're looking good. Looks like a fun challenge. Hope you're having a beautiful, not too windy, spring day. Lots of love!
