a house full of love

Friday, February 1

"a home is a house full of love" 

Tonight after a long and lovely day in the glorious sunshine, Kevin and I collapsed on the couch and snuggled up. 

February already! I can't believe it. 
looking around, I started noticing how many signs of love are strewn across the house, 
and my heart radiated. 
love is what makes a home. 

and of course not just love items,
but real.live.love. 
that we give each other, 
and we pray we give those around us. 

here is a glimpse from our home the last few days....
{our fridge}
 {cd from the vbs we held at our house this summer}
 {handcrafted heart made in thailand}
{jeremiah 31:3 "I have loved you with an everlasting love: I have drawn you with unfailing kindness"}
 {engagement picture in a field of flowers}
 {tribute to my swedish heritage...otherwise known as a straw heart from ikea}
{cuddling love}
{lovebirds and my parents on their engagement, 31 years ago!}
 {love banner, and peace dove}
 {last night our life group hosted a mini-vbs for the kids in our neighborhood. We played games, shared the story of Jesus and Peter walking on water, complete with a sweet skit, sang songs, and shared dreams! it was beautiful...so much love filling our home.}
 {when i saw one of the kids today, he ran up to me with a huge hug, and said "katie! i had so much fun last night! so.priceless.}
 {small groups and sharing dreams}
{cuddle time}

may our homes ever be FULL,
overflowing,
brimming,
blossoming,
singing,
shouting,
spilling,
love. 
sweet love. 

happy february sweet dearest friends! 

love katie
