Wow you guys!!! I can’t believe we are only a few days away from 2016. I know that people say that a lot… BUT I am honestly in shock. It doesn’t feel real. This time last year we were moving into our Michigan home & settling in. This year has been filled with a lot of ups and downs, but mostly ups. We have been making this Michigan house our home, I have opened up a booth at a local store & now I’m opening up my own store, I’ve done some DIY projects, Jose & I have built some things, we have made some amazing memories with friends and family, we lost two babies this year, we learned some lessons, we grew our business, we’ve made new friends, we’ve decorated, & most of all we have grown in every area of our life. It’s been one year in Michigan & I can’t possibly put into words everything that has happened or share everything we did here on the blog, but I did want to share a few of my favorite blog posts from this past year here on the blog today. I hope you guys enjoy this look back at the year as much as I did. I think it was a ‘weird year’ here on the blog because there was so much going on, but I’m looking forward to 2016 here on the blog & look forward to some exciting new things. I wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to all of you who visit my blog daily to see my new posts, share my blog with your friends and family, chat with me on Instagram & Facebook, Pin my posts, & more… this little blog is my happy place & it’s happy because of all of you.

Hi. I love your blog and your projects are wonderful! I have two tiny suggestions I would like to make… I am an (a-hem) older gal, and my eyesight is not what it used to be, but I find the font size for your commentary to be really small and hard to read compared to the many other blogs I read; any chance you could increase the font size a bit? Also, in the commentary portions (generally the intro to the posts) it would really help if you could break the narrative into paragraphs so there is more “white space” showing – really helps readability for anyone else like me who is more “over the hill” than “new kid on the block” in age… Again, LOVE your blog, decorating style and eye candy photos. Looking forward to more in 2016!
Hi Liz Marie! I love your style and your beautiful home! I have been following your blog for a few years and have been taking note on how I can replicate your style into my own home. I feel successful in some areas, but have been struggling on how to mix and match different tones of wood in my open living room/kitchen. You do this so beautifully in your mainly white home, but I am finding it very difficult with my honey oak cabinets and trim (which I sadly will not be painting white), gray walls, and dark expresso table set. It’s been tough to find good examples of how to do this — I am wondering if you would consider dedicating a blog post to mixing wood tones to create a cozy home, so myself and others can learn from you.
Este rechazo lo encontramos en la sociedad en general, en los medios de comunicación, en las administraciones públicas y entre los mismos profesionales de la educación y el trabajo social y otros técnicos del sistema de protección de la infancia. Pero desde este domingo, una alternativa novedosa parece asomarse para recibir buen dinero sin trabajar mucho, incluso, colgando el uniforme antes del final del contrato garantizado… y es ser técnico de los Miami Marlins.

This was really great to read. Thank you!
I have been surfing on-line more than 3 hours lately, but
I never found any attention-grabbing article like yours.
It’s pretty worth enough for me. In my view, if all website owners and bloggers made good content material as you did, the net will be much more helpful than ever
before.
He wound up being able to obtain a 15-year home loan at 3.65
% for his very first residence from Churchill Home mortgage, which supplies a no
score loan item by taking non-traditional lines
of credit as well as adding them to Pittman’s credit rating.
Present residents can simplify re-finance or cash-out re-finance
their home loan utilizing an FHA home loan.
Brent Pittman, a 36-year-old material advertising supervisor
from Oklahoma City, chose an FHA loan given that he did not have having a credit history from not
making use of bank card or acquiring loans for numerous years.
So while a property owner might obtain a reduced price with FHA, as well as invest regarding 1.5 % much less (down payment) the regular monthly repayment on an FHA lending
would still be greater.
This insures that the payment change will be marginal also on a worst instance rate adjustment.
While FHA home loans could be made use of responsibly these are the sorts of devices that could get individuals in over their head in my opinion.
FHA lendings for purchasers that do not satisfy a minimal 640 FICO rating could go through greater mortgage rates.
Also, if you had late settlements done in a distinct timespan and also
had a good payment history adhering to that, they will disregard those blemishes.
They do appear a bit pricey, however if you are looking for boosting your credit score without needing
to do so much leg job or developing additional financial
obligation, this is the means to go!
The industry for FHA loans is huge, which creates affordable pressure amongst loan providers
to supply reduced FHA prices and also reduced FHA charges.
FHA financings could likewise be assumable, which indicates in the
future it would certainly be feasible for somebody to presume an FHA lending
from the initial customer.
FHA financings are covered at $271,050 so nobody can obtain a $450,000 FHA loan and also, moreover, $450,000 is a jumbo financing that has
a lot more strict guidelines compared to a traditional lending.
While FHA home mortgages could be used responsibly
these are the kinds of tools that could obtain people in over their head in my point of
view.
Additionally, if you had late settlements all in a distinctive time frame as well as had
a good repayment record adhering to that, they will certainly overlook those
blemishes.
If you satisfy these needs, you might obtain an FHA financing, which permits you to place down as bit as 3.5 % on a mortgage.
