It's been a little over a month since we moved into our new house and I'm pretty sure we fall more in love with it everyday. We feel so blessed to have found such a wonderful place for our little family. Happily, one of my favorite rooms is my home office! My workspace in our last home was a far cry from appealing. Just picture old, stained carpet and yucky wood paneling. There wasn't much I could do about it though, so I worked with it. I'm so thrilled that my new space is worlds better than what I've been used to! It does have wood ceiling beams, but they're painted white and I love them. The ceiling adds so much character to the room. What I adore most is all the light that floods this room all hours of the day. Of course, all things bright and white make me happy! I also have a wonderful view of our lush backyard and deck. Usually, I'm quite entertained by the squirrels and birds playing in the trees outside the windows. We feel so incredibly blessed to call this place home! Now, without further ado here are a few images of my office. I'll be sharing more of the rest of the house soon too!

"I trust in You, O LORD; I say, 'You are my God. My times are in Your hand." Oh, how abundant is Your goodness, which You have stored up for those who fear You, and worked for those who take refuge in You, in the sight of the children of mankind! Be strong, and let your heart take courage, all you who wait for the LORD!" (Psalm 31:14, 15, 19, 24)

Right now I am sitting in my office space in our  new house. I gaze at through our big windows and see our big, blooming Camellia bushes, the sun shining on our deck and little Robins flitting from one tree to another. My heart is overcome with thankfulness for this beautiful home. We don't deserve this; it is above and beyond all we hoped for or dreamed. It is grace poured out into our lap. Of course, it's not perfect. I could make a fairly long list of all that others might change, but it's just right for us. We think it is incredibly beautiful, and a perfect place for our little family to grow. The day we got the keys we came in to look at our then empty home. Sitting on the edge of the bathtub we thanked God for this lavish blessing and gave it back to Him. We know it's not really ours, even though that's what the deed says.
