Thanksgiving Blessings


DSCF4975

Thanksgiving this year was spent at our new house.  We were so excited to have our family come and join us during this thankful season.  What better way to spend it then in our new home that we had been waiting for for years.  We are so thankful for God’s gifts and the family that was there to share with us. 

For the first time in mine and Cory’s marriage we used our fine china with family.  I was so excited to share it with everyone….I know that’s silly but we’ve been married for eight years and I have always wanted to share it at a holiday dinner!!  Woohoo!

Thanksgiving was simple, precious, and wonderful!  We are so thankful for the family, the love, and the treasures God allows us to share with others.  I pray that were ever you were this Thanksgiving that it was just as special as ours.

The Beginning of a New Chapter in the Tyre Family: the Before Pictures of our Home

 

What a surprise it was when Cory and I stepped into our new home for the first time!  I was so impressed with all the details!  The chair rail throughout the house, the wood floors in every room, the beautiful trim around ALL the windows and doors…….it was just beautiful!  Then I went on the front porch…..and there it was…my nice HUGE porch that I have been dreaming about…..SOLD!!!

The house had been vacant for sometime so obviously there were things that needed to be taken care of.  All it needed was some tlc…and we were ready!  After we purchased the home we immediately got started.  So for the last few months we have been consumed with fixing up and moving into our new home.  What a blessing!!

The above pictures are of the living space before.  Since buying our house we have taken up the tile and replaced it with another tile floor.  The walls have all been repainted.  And we put in all new appliances….whew..what a process!  YIKES!

These pictures are of the master bath, the kid’s rooms, and the master bedroom.  All have been repainted (I let the girls pick out their own color and they did a great job!) and the master bath got a new vanity!

There are still a lot of things that we are working on but one thing at a time!  For now we are truly excited to just be living in our home without any major projects going on.  Not to mention enjoying our new home with all it’s Christmas decorations!  I am so excited to share with you all the new changes and the Christmas that adorns our beautiful blessing!

Keep watching….Lord willing I will manage to get us back on track on our blog.  Thanks for your patience.

God is good…..ALL the time,

Little Hunters

The first weekend of huntin’ season was a busy one!  Not only did we have to get ready for the big hunt but we stayed our first night in the new house too! 

We did manage to get the girls in a stand…the most important thing!  They love to go huntin’ with me and their Daddy!  VK and her Daddy saw lots of deer but no keepers.  As for me and Sissy, well, we didn’t see anything!  But we had lots of fun learning all the new games on my blackberry!

What a great weekend!  The shoot took place at our house and it was nice to be right there in the middle of it (literally) rather than having to load the youngin’s up. 

This was a lazy Saturday and I told the girls to dress themselves…..hence CJ’s lovely color combo…haha!  Not to mention the lack of camo!!  But who cares….they were having a great time!

I love seeing the kids interact with Cory and hunting.  It brings back so many memories of me and my family.  I used to love to go hunting with my Daddy.  I am so thankful for the traditions our family has started and the ones we’ve inherited.  Looking forward to many more dove shoots with family and friends!
