The Garren Residence rests on a high desert prairie site and is a very low-slung building, with strong horizontal elements to visually tie the building to the landscape.

Three parallel axis walls orient the house toward prominent views and define outdoor rooms expanding the small footprint into the landscape. The structure features a central void that further integrates the exterior and interior. This void delivers natural light to the basement rooms as well as provides a private exterior gathering space in the center of the house. PIQUE Architects

What a wonderful Home Architectural Design! These are the sample pictures of parts of Modern Twofold House In Black Stained Wood With Natural Wood Between The Window Partitions. The pictures show the beauty of the shape of this architectural building. The nuance of blue is chosen because this house is built near the sea Shore. The romantic situation is felt with the blue nuance of this home environment.

This twofold house is located on one of Bergen’s most attractive sites overlooking the southern fjords and the West coast archipelago. The main facade of the house faces south to the ocean while the balcony offers stunning views to the south and west. It’s a long thin shape with a balcony extruding 6m out of the house that rests on 3 steel poles. The house’s clad is a black stained wood with natural wood between the window partitions. The top floor is for the parents and the bottom for their two children that are university students. There is a small 35m2 guest studio on the bottom floor. The absence of any adjacent houses allowed the exclusive use of glass for exterior construction. Thanks to that the bathroom has beautiful views of surrounds. [Saunders Architecture]

Books on Courtship

I've been asked what book{s} I read on courtship prior to entering into a relationship with my now husband. I wanted to respond to this question with a public post in case there are other women who are interested in knowing the names of a few books that speak to your heart from a Christian perspective.

The below book, Boundaries in Dating, was the book that I read at the same time that my church was teaching a series on courtship. The content within this book is so enlightening and definitely causes you, the reader, to gain a new perspective on why boundaries are vital to the courtship process. Some of the chapter titles include "Why Boundaries in Dating?", "Dating Won't Cure a Lonely Heart", "Too Much Too Fast", and "Set Appropriate Physical Limits". You can read excerpts from the book and reviews, as well as purchase the book, on Amazon here.

Many years before I met my husband I began reading books by Michelle McKinney Hammond. I was emotionally spent from relationships that God thankfully pulled me out of {I can't tell you how many times I have thanked Him for His covering}, and turned to the pages of Hammond's books for emotional and spiritual restoration. Hammond's books have a large emphasis on preparing yourself for your future mate, praying God's will for your future, learning to overcome heartache, discovering God's love when you feel alone, realizing the power of being a woman, etc. Michelle McKinney Hammond has so many wonderful books. Below are just three of the {probably thirty} books that I read of hers.

Sadly, when I moved to Georgia, my large shipment of boxes that held my books got "lost" in transit. But I will always remember how those books helped me through a season of my life when I needed those words of wisdom the most. Hammond definitely is in tune with her spiritual gift and God uses her as a vessel to reach many women who need to be reminded of what He has in store for them.

Is It That Hard to Get Breakfast?

This weekend I was craving breakfast from McDonalds. My husband had plans to help a friend move and I wanted to go and get us some breakfast before we delved into our day. I looked at the time and it was 10:25 a.m. Eeek! I was cutting it real close since the usual cut-off time for breakfast is 10:30 a.m. {sometimes you can still get stuff around 10:45 a.m. but it's chancy}. I leaped out of bed, threw on some clothes, slid my feet into some flip flops and headed down the stairs and out the door like a mad woman. Who knew that a sausage and egg biscuit was that serious? My husband is always the one to make food runs these days so I really wanted to be the one to go and get breakfast for us that day.

When I hit the bottom of the stairs to open the door to the garage I realized I had to go to the bathroom. Nooo!! The clock was ticking and there was no time for a tinkle. I had to make it to McDonalds before they flipped the menu to lunch; I simply couldn't risk my breakfast order being denied. I got in my car and was on my way.

And then it starts to rain.

And then I get stuck behind a lady in a car who is in a right turning lane but decides that she wants to go straight, thereby preventing me from making my right turn and proceeding just one block to get into the McDonalds drive-thru. To make it worse, every light but ours was turning green. Yes, I was becoming impatient. And yes I said to myself, "oh my gosh; this lady is unbelievable" - even though she couldn't hear me.

What seemed like an eternity later, although it was just two minutes, I made my right-hand turn and...started to feel like I was going to vomit. This was happening now??!!?? I got in the McDonalds line and as I waited my turn, the vomiting sensation hit me like a ton of bricks. I reached into my purse for a zofran pill. I didn't have any on me {insert a big inhale and exhale}. I had forgotten to put some more in my purse after I used the last one while at my mom's house a few days prior.

The husband soon got a text message from me that read:
Good news: Got our breakfast
Bad news: I'm throwing up

I just wanted to get home. We only live about two miles from the McDonald's so I kept telling myself "keep it together; you can make it home". But nope. That didn't happen. While at a red light {that had just turned green} I opened the door, with my head out in the rain, and began to profusely vomit. How embarrassing! With cars behind me, I had to go through the left arrow light. I just couldn't sit there.

I was still terribly sick and knew I wasn't done vomiting. I happened to have a black tank top in my car and used it to...well...you know...finish. A family that was driving next to me kept starring at me; I suppose I was really a sight to see. I wanted to roll down my window and say, "I'm not some hung over chick; I'm pregnant and am having "one of those" mornings". I'm sure I was the topic of conversation in their car for at least the next few miles. Ha!

Who would have thought that a drive to McDonald's would turn into such an ordeal? Gotta say though...the sausage and egg biscuit was worth it!

Well....

After my doctor's appointment this morning, I went to my mom's house where I spent the entire day and evening. I couldn't wait to hop on the computer once I got there and do a post announcing what the ultrasound revealed {!} BUT because of a storm that hit, mom's internet was out {still is}. Bummer!

I just returned home and even though it's nearly midnight I couldn't leave you all hanging!

So what's the verdict??..........

I had an intuition that our little one was going to be a boy...up until about two weeks ago when I strongly began thinking I was carrying a little girl! We can't wait to meet our little cutie! As I previously shared, we have no names picked out for a little girl so the thoughts of girl names have now begun to swirl in my head!!

Now onto shopping!!
