Decorating your home and life...


Hello Bloggers and viewers,

I have taken sometime off,I lost my beloved father on June 28th, 2013 and have just been reflecting on everything that transpired during my time of bereavement. So I am doing well and blessed, have the peace of God surrounding me and just plan old happy. I recently decided to change a few things in my home, I guess just adding a few pops of color will change your homes decoration theme. My home is my haven of peace and happiness, I love coming home and just relaxing and being with my husband sitting in the livingroom, chillin out in the back yard or taking a stroll through our beautiful neighborhood. So when I started wanting change in my life, i said "Trina change your atmosphere also", don't get me wrong I loved the way my home is decorated, but now I love it even better. It's like being in Love with God, I love him som much that I want more and more of Him, so you start to make changes within yourself. You start with YOU and work from the inside out. Having this great relationship with God has definately taking me to another level in my spiritual walk. I started speaking different, acting different and even looking different, because guess what I love God and myself. Just like my home I loved being with my God and myself. I know that God only wants the best for me and every trial and tribulation took my higher. After my Dad passed I have to admit I was a angry with life, I could not understand why this had to happen, my relationship with my dad had just grown. Why God??? but through it all God blessed me, and through it all God kept me, so I still have a praise inside of me (lyrics from a song), but that's my testimony. So the pictures below are of my "pop" of color in my home, and my "pop" of happiness and peace in my life. Thank you Jesus!!

Thais was the chairs before we sparay painted them to match our patio set, what a great find Home Depot $31.00 each the ugly blue color just didnt go with our decor.
