Southern Decor Blog

I've been keeping this blog to myself, but I guess I'll share with my dear friends. I absolutely love this blogger's taste. It is so Southern and eloquent.  This screened porch, for example, is absolutely dreamy! I definitely plan to attempt some of her DIY projects this summer. Check it out!

A Sweet Prayer

A Marriage Blessing
We thank You, O God, for the love You have implanted in our hearts.
May it always inspire us to be kind in our words, considerate of feelings, and concerned for each others needs and wishes.
Help us to be understanding and forgiving of human weaknesses and failings.
Increase our faith and trust in You and may Your prudence guide our life and love.
Bless our marriage, O God, with peace and happiness, and make our Love fruitful for Your glory and our joy both here and in eternity.

Tying the Knot

Another sweet couple, who happens to be dear to our hearts, recently exchanged vows and rings and entered the joy of matrimony. Despite the looming rain and tornado warnings, they pulled of a beautiful ceremony and reception that was held at the ever inspiring Brooks Museum. It was so uplifting to be in a room of smiling, familiar faces who truly believe in the sanctity of marriage. My cup was full of laughter and spirits that evening and I hope Jessica and John have wonderful memories of their joyous day. Congratulations to you both and may many years and children find you.

Boston Bunyard

From the bottom of my heart, I would like to sincerely thank each of you for your purchases of the Boston shirt, donations, and general support in the March of Dimes. I was completely overwhelmed by the number of shirts we sold and my soul is lifted every time I see someone sporting that sweet, powder blue shirt. I am continually reminded how special my son is and I am truly honored that God chose me and Cody to be his parents. He has such a tender, heartwarming presence and I am blessed to have him cheering me on throughout this life and journey. Thanks is such a diminutive word for the love you have shown my family, but we are so thankful for all of you.

I would also like to add that Boston's team raised $325.00 to donate to the March of Dimes. How amazing!

The Simple Pleasures

Friendship isn't a big thing - it's a million little things.  ~Author Unknown 

How true and wise is this? I am so thankful for the girls, and guys, who stick by me, despite my bouts of bossiness, and keep me smiling. Not only do they shower me with good advice and belly laughs, but they also send me small, simple happy treats that make my day, or week rather! Check out what my dear friend Kayla sent us. She too is reminded of Boston Bunyard when she sees bicycles, so she picked up this little darling and sent it my way. As you can imagine, I shrieked with joy upon opening her gift and immediately starting coordinating an outfit around this Boston scarf. I just love it! It makes Cody and I so proud to know that our son is continually loved. 

All Hail The Queen

I always thought I was the Queen of the Bunyard castle, but I think I've since been dethroned. I mean, just look at this puppy! Ruby has had no trouble in letting us know that she enjoys a life of comfort. Geez.. 

March for Boston

Hello friends. Cody and I would like to invite ya'll to join us at the annual March for Babies this month. As you may know, the March of Dimes strives to support research to help us understand and prevent premature birth and other serious problems that threaten our babies. No mother should experience the loss of a child and I absolutely honor this organization for its research to ensure the health of infants. The 2013 March for Babies will be held at Shelby Farms on Saturday, April 27th @ 9:00 am. My wonderful Walls family has sponsored a team in honor of our sweet Boston, named Boston's Blessings. If you would like, you can order a shirt and join us for a great walk or run, whatever you prefer.The cost for both the shirt and walk is $15.00.  If you are interested, just let me know. We hope you can make it!
