here in Louisiana. The days are getting cooler, a few trees have changed their colors, and I am getting so excited for the holidays! I've started decorating around the house for Halloween, and I've been crafting for the holidays, and of course for our little one's room.
This is the adorable hair bow holder I made for her!
In other news, we went to GA over the Labor Day weekend for a baby shower that my sister Kyrie threw for me. It was wonderful!
Isn't it funny...when my family moved to GA in 2000, I was determined that I would never call it home. Colorado was my home...that was where I grew up, that was where my friends and family were. Georgia wasn't home, and one day, I would go back to Colorado. So many things have changed. What I find funny is that I never wanted to call Georgia home... until I had to leave it. The friends that you have when you are little don't stick around like family does, and family is what's forever. As much as I hated Georgia growing up, as much as I wanted to get away from Cartersville, the second I realized I had to leave, I realized that I would be leaving my home. How cliche do I sound to say "Home is where the heart is"? And of course I have a home here with my wonderful husband, but it's just us in our own house that makes this home. Nothing can replace the love of family. Our hearts are full from the the love we have for our family in GA, including the most amazing ward that I could ever ask for. We are blessed to have moved into a great ward, but nothing compares to HOME.
