we are truly enjoying our new home!

Happy New Year!

My apologies for my absence. Truly the hustle and bustle of the holidays plus moving got the best of me. We recently moved to a really nice and quaint apartment. Currently in the midst of the tedious task of unpacking. I am really excited to unpack our office/craft room. I can't wait til that room is up and running and I can get my craft back on! So stay tuned!

Craft-A-Gift

I have a really good friend at church named Irene... She is crafty and one of the few Asian women at our church so we get along! Haha! No she truly is great! I love her to pieces! She is a woman of God, humble, caring, and has been one of my prayer warriors this past year. So one of our shared passions is crafting... I saw her at church wearing a beautiful red scarf and instantly I knew she made it... because it was a well crafted t-shirt scarf... One I actually have not seen. Any who she emailed me her eternity t-shirt scarf and I immediately had to make one and here it is...

Tada! Kuddos to Irene! Thanks for showing me this quick and easy Craft-A-Gift idea!

FYI: The shirt I used was one of my Mission Trip Russia shirts... It is a sentimental possession and I have quite a few. I cut it to where I left the Bible verse on the inside of the scarf, so every time I wear I promised myself that I would pray for Russia!

Home Sweet Home

We're MOVING! 

.... again...

Last night Willie and I went to have Pho for dinner over at Riverside. We found our favorite Pho place over here in the desert! Quite exciting!

So about this move... After Pho we went roaming around this cute part of Riverside. Absolutely beautiful, it has a small village type of feel. There are a ton of trees which gives it a woodsy feel. Any who we relentlessly searched through the neighborhood and jotted down phone numbers of apartments. We called those numbers and looked at a few apartments. We narrowed our search down to 2 apartments. Both built in the 70's one with 150 units and the other under 20 units. We chose the one under 20 units. It is nice cozy and very spacious! Plus in a very good neighborhood!

 We are very excited! We move mid January!
