Making Memories: A Simple Winnie the Pooh Themed Baby Shower with Recipe Links and Printable Games

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog3 Comments

Whew… what a crazy month July was. We were rushing to get our house remodeled. It seems we always have some big project before a big event. Everything turned out great though and we were blessed to have so many family and friends come to help us celebrate the new arrival… he should be here ANY DAY NOW!

It’s starting to feel like home….

This past week, we got the house back in order and got all of the decorations packed away until the next event… we did make a rule that baby showers/weddings need to happen before May 31st or after September 1st… it’s just too darn HOT here! Our poor ACs can’t keep up with the heat, especially when the doors are constantly opening/shutting, but we survived so it’s all OK. What isn’t Ok is last month’s electric bill!!! That was crazy and the company keeps going up and adding charges on top of regular charges… it is just completely ridiculous!

Transform Your Garden with Trellis Beds

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place BlogLeave a comment

I love that I can come up with an idea in my head, put it down on paper, and Mr. Awesome can make it come to life! He has done this time and time again… just AMAZING! My Ube plants were going crazy and starting to take over the greenhouse so I needed to make a place for them to grow. I didn’t have a lot of money to put towards this as our bathroom really needs attention so we spent less than $100 on materials and I scavenged the scrap piles for materials.

While this isn’t exactly as I had planned, as we couldn’t find the lumber I had planned for, it is pretty close and just as AWESOME. I wanted a couple of beds for planting as this area is close to the septic and I didn’t want to take any chances with contaminated food but I also wanted to screen the backyard a little bit as we have a couple of sheds in this area. The solution was two trellis beds with a cattle panel arch to act as an ‘entry’ to the backyard area. It may also prove to be a pretty backdrop for pictures!

A Walk Through the Garden

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place BlogLeave a comment

A walk in nature always amazes me and reminds me that we serve an awesome GOD! We are surrounded by his love and mercy but often we get so caught up in life that we don’t see it or feel it.

We are so blessed to have an abundance of nature in our own backyard and garden… this reminds us our of creator every day.

It makes me ponder how amazing the Garden of Eden must’ve been… I’m sure that our garden can’t be anything close to that but it can be a place where we can talk to God and feel his presence as He surrounds us with His love. The burdens of this world melts around us when we allow ourselves to take in all of His glory.
