Hello and welcome to my blog! I’m so glad you’re here! Please pour yourself a cup of tea, coffee or like me, sip on an ice cold Passion Tea Lemonade!
My name is Kendra and I am happily married to my very best friend, my biggest supporter and encouragement. He goes along with all of my crazy awesome ideas and I know I couldn’t run this blog without him! He is there for me when I need to meet a deadline, when a project doesn’t go as planned, or when technology frustrates me to no end! I’m the luckiest gal in the world!
We met fourteen years ago when I applied for a job where he was the manager…. I was smitten from the moment I met him! He interviewed me, hired me, asked me out and we fell in love! (Not as quickly as it sounds though! 😉 We will celebrate our 16th anniversary this year and I’m so thankful for him!
Our two greatest blessings in life are our sweet children. We have a precious, rough and tumble boy who is the life of the party and is scatterbrained just like Mama! Our daughter has the most infectious laugh and is thoughtful and sweet to the core. Needless to say, they are our world!
This blog is my creative outlet where I share our DIY projects around our home, a recipe that our family loves and other décor ideas!
Some random things I enjoy:
- Redoing furniture – I enjoy taking an old and neglected piece and bring it back to life with a brush and a can of paint!
- Thrifting and garage sales. I’ll take these two any day over the mall.
- Camping. I love, love getting away and camping with our family! Even if it means being unplugged and without wifi, I’m okay with that 🙂
- Reading. I have a weakness for a good book… and can hardly put it down once I pick one up!
More than all of these though, I love my family and am blessed with the greatest parents in the world and my sweet siblings and their families.
Above anything else, I love Jesus and my greatest purpose in life is to serve Him. I am nothing without Him.
Thanks for taking the time to visit! I hope you stay a while!

Is it feeling wintery in your neck of the woods yet? Last week was so cold (my southern friends probably can’t imagine this but we’re sporting all our winter gear already) No mistaking it, winter’s arrived!
I started at the nose since it’s a fairly straight area with no curves. Using the glue gun, glue the beginning piece of jute and then start wrapping around the very bottom part of the nose. Once you bring it to the back of the deer, secure it with glue. I kept going all the way around including his ears. Once I reached the top of his face I cut the jute twine and was ready to start on the first antler.
