Song of the Week!

It actually is the song of my life!! :) I absolutely love this song! There are tthree things I think about whenever I hear this song: 1) my Savior....He is the one person that will always be there for me, and will never leave, especially during my trials.  2) my future husband and marriage...I want a husband that will always be there for me, no matter what happens, and that holds me up in times of trials. I want to be the kind of wife that always supports my husband, and will do everything in my power to help him in times of need. 3) my family and friends....I wouldn't be anywhere without their love and support. I can't even count how many times they have helped me through a hard time in my life.

"I Won't Let Go"--Rascal Flatts

It’s like a storm
That cuts a path
It breaks your will
It feels like that
You think you're lost
But you're not lost 
On your own
You're not alone

I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you’ve done all you can do
And you can’t cope
I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I won't let go

It hurts my heart
To see you cry
I know it’s dark
This part of life
Oh, it finds us all
And we’re too small
To stop the rain
Oh, but when it rains

I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you’ve done all you can do

And you can’t cope
I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I won't let you fall

Don’t be afraid to fall
I’m right here to catch you
I won't let you down
It won't get you down
You're gonna make it
Yeah, I know you can make it

Cause I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you’ve done all you can do
And you can’t cope
And I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I won't let go

Oh I’m gonna hold you
And I won't let go
Won't let you go
No, I won't

Life is and will always be tough, but we all have people that will support us, and help us through anything.

C&O: DVD Box

So I have a minor obsession with crafts and organization. I have to have things organized and in an orderly fashion, or I have anxiety attacks.  Organizing everything and making crafts are a couple ways that relieve me of stress.  When things are cute and orderly, I function a lot easier and so that in turn makes my life a lot less stressful and a lot more fun.  I started following a lot of different craft and organizing blogs. (yes, that's how I spend SOME of my free time)  I love learning from other people and seeing all of their fun ideas.  So I decided, since this is like a journal for me, that every Saturday I will post either a craft I have made in the last little bit or some type of organization thing, whether it be a something I learned or how I organized a certain space.  I realized that it might be very boring for some of you, so that's why I only am doing it once a week.  And we will see if it even lasts. :)  


The first project or craft that I want to share is my DVD box that I made a couple weeks ago.  I think it is so cute and a great organizational tool as well.  I went to my favorite store, Hobby Lobby, and bought one of those square wooden boxes.  The one a got had the cute furnishings on it as well.  I bought some red paint, and some gel wood stain.  I love the old, run down look.  I first did a couple coats of the red and then used to the gel stain over that to give that look.  For the inside, my parents had some file rod things, and my dad cut one down to fit inside.  I bought some CD sleeves from another one of my favorite stores, The Container Store. Don't judge me, I know I'm weird.  I cut the covers from the DVD cases down to fit, that way I know what the movie is and where it goes. For the front, I cut out the letters on the cricut, and then modpodged them on. And I used a little ink to distress the edges. Sorry, I don't have pictures throughout the process. I will in the future.

And sorry the pictures aren't very good. I also decided I want to learn a little photography. :)

I definitely have a lot learn, but for my first big craft, I am pretty happy with it! I can't wait to learn so much more!

Thanks for reading!

Happy Mothers Day!!
