• Ten Things I Love Tuesdays •

My good friend, off and on Blogger, Alyssa, has started doing something called "Ten Things I Love Sundays", and I, being the little copy cat I am, have decided to do the same. Except, I'm going to be spice'n things up and doing it on Tuesdays. Okay, I know that's not spice'n things up. I've just decided to do it on Tuesdays.  =D

So, here are my first "Ten Things I Love Tuesdays"

I Love:

Very Decorated Salads

When we were out today we went by Publix on the way home and everyone got chicken for lunch, but mom and I got a very yummie, and colorful, salad.

Autumn Colored Leaves

Living in the south, or at least where I live, you can expect to see colorful leaves in December. Yesterday I noticed how pretty the leaves looked on the road right before you get into my neighborhood. It looked like rainbow row except, instead of old Downtown Charleston houses, they were trees. =)

Guesstures

 

We got this game on Nona's birthday so we could celebrate in a fun and special way.

We have now played every Sunday night since, and it's hilarious to watch my fam play.

Each person has their own way of thinking through and playing the game.

Reese's Peanut Butter Trees

Oh my goodness!

Do I even need to say anything here?!?!

Not Having a TV

I was one of the less enthused about the removal of the precious, and I really didn't think I would ever be saying this... but it really has been a blessing not having it. I mean, my parents have been talking about getting rid of the television since.... I don't know maybe since we first got a TV, and so I never thought their words would ever turn into actions. Now that they did it, I don't really even miss it.

We have been sitting around just being with each other more. We've been doing more things like playing guestures and card games, and the house has, beileve it or not, been less messy.

The Library

This is our library....

No, it's not really, but it's beautiful, huh?

Kimmi and I went to a much less extravagant library today, and I got a new library card.  I'm particularly excited about a book on photography.

Rain

I absolutly love the rain. It could rain all the time and I'd be happy.

I'm looking now out at the pond, and it's  actually raining pretty hard.

It's been raining so much here you'd think we were actually in London.

When Crickets Cry

 

I have really enjoyed reading this book, and I'll probably end up finishing it tonight or tomorrow.

Charles Martin is a phenominal writer, and I definitely recommend his books.

(I sound like I'm doing a book review)

Trying New Things

Jesus

I love, and am so thankful for Jesus! Because of Him, we can now have joy, and peace with God.

We have this nativy set.

 I think we've gone through about three of this particular one ove rthe years. We love it.

Press the angel and it  plays  "Away in a Manger", but right now we can't find baby Jesus.

So, it's a little insignificant for the moment. ;D

Well, I did it!

When I sat down at the computer (45minutes ago!) I had not a clue what the 10 things would be, but that made it all the more fun. =D

Thanks for the idea Alyssa!
