give me Jesus

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Things have been wonderfully simple and delightful lately. Lots of playing with my children, baking yummy treats, taking long walks, cleaning my kitchen and doing laundry, spending time reading and enjoying God's presence in my house.

Here's a little snippet of my day today:

on a walk today with the little ones on a sunny (yet cold!) day

me and my little boys :)

Joseph on a path around the lake near our house. Look at that gorgeous blue sky!

(His outfit is cracking me up. He LOVES that hooded sweatshirt, even though its more Robby's size than his!)

three ducks enjoying the sunshine

one duck enjoying the water

homemade banana bread, hot out of the oven!! 

its my mother-in-law's recipe - foolproof and delicious every time!!

and a little crafty project for the morning.

I've been holding on to a vintage piece of sheet music of one of my favorite songs, Give Me Jesus.

I had the idea this morning to tea stain the paper and frame it!

staining the paper with a tea bag!

ta-da!!

LOVE it!

(I also tea stained the other page of the sheet music. If you'd like to have it to make your own framed piece, just shoot me an email (eagerhands@gmail.com) with your address.
I'd be happy to mail it to you!)

and I made this little custom necklace after lunch today. 

love how the ruby pops out against sterling silver!
