A New Adventure??

So everyone in our house is finally getting over being sick.  I'm sure there is something going around...weird thing is that we usually never get sick.  I was puking all Wednesday evening...not that fun since my dad was visiting and having dinner with us.  Zander was running a fever since Wednesday morning and then Friday Jerry stayed home from work because he was up all night Thursday getting sick.  But good news...we are all better now!

So Friday...IT CAME!!!  My MacBook came, so I've been playing with it non stop...now if only I could figure out how to use everything on it.  So if you have any tips on using a MacBook Pro I could surly use them.

I love helping others.  I believe that we are doing God's work when we help others and work together.  I have a friend, Kristen, who was selling a wet bag (it's a bag for dirty cloth diapers) and I had talked to her before about my Cricut and all the amazing things that I can cut out with it.  We decided that I would cut her a boat design with her son's name on it to put in his room in exchange for the wet bag.  Now, I could have gone to the store (well online) and bought a wet bag...Kristen could have gone online and ordered an adhesive vinyl boat design and we both would have been happy and gotten what we want but by trading what we each have we are helping each other out (and saving each other a ton of money).  Seriously it's God's work and it happens everyday.  I'm also going to be designing a quote with some birds for my friend Sarah's daughter's room which I am VERY excited about doing.

All of this designing of these vinyl wall decals kind of got me thinking...oh know!  I truly believe that if you can buy something local..or at least from the US you are doing yourself a favor because you are supporting our economy (which needs all the help it can get).  So here's my idea......

 I'm thinking about starting a small business where I would design custom made vinyl wall decals for anywhere in your home.  They would be like the ones that you can buy at the store but these could be any design that you want...personalized.  I have a few that I have done as you have seen already for my own house as examples and then I have some that I'm in the process of doing.  Would love anyones thoughts on it...or if you would be interested in purchasing one I would love to help you.

I've been doing a lot of thinking and more importantly praying about this and I believe this is something God is calling me to do.  Might be something little in His big world but we are all put on this earth for a reason and I believe my purpose is to be a Child of God and a Mother.  I also believe that God gave me special talents to share with others.

I'm excited to see where God leads me in this week...month...year...and lifetime.
