Frugal Crafty Home Blog Hop 90

August 24, 2014 by Carrie

It’s official.  I have a Kindergartner in the house!  Life is a little different now that I only have one kiddo for most of the day!  Last week I shared a pretty cool story of how God made our last day of summer pretty special.  Let’s just say I was really surprised by God!

Upon hearing they’d be hosting a foreign exchange student, Steph from Living Surrendered decided to do a guest room makeover for under $100.  What a great way to welcome someone to our country!

Logan Can linked up a beautifully honest post about the Facts of Life: After Baby.  Life really does change after having a baby!  Some changes are awesome and some are quite annoying.  But in the end they’re all worth it!
