About Me
- Michelle Cearley
- I am a wife to Stuart, mom to Owen, Hudson, and Arden, and a 7th grade English teacher in Bentonville, Arkansas.
My New Philosophy
"Who wants to live in a constant protective state from scratches, rips, tears, spills, spring-loaded jumping, and fort-building wear-and-tear? I don't want to care more about my furniture than I do about the PEOPLE using my furniture. I find that the stuff I find on the cheap, is the stuff I love best and longest. " (from CloverLane Blog)

Both Stuart and I have Facebook pages now which we've begun to use to stay in contact with friends. If you are on Facebook, look us up and request that we be your friend!
GREEN GOAL$
I will buy at least 50% of all furniture, home decor, books, and clothing for our family used. I will pledge to always look for used items first before I buy new, and I will recycle my unwanted items.

Psalm 78:4
We will not hide them from our children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the Lord, his power, and the wonders he has done.

Wish we were there for the pretty snow! Emily has that same kitchen, but Sarah Kate is the only one who plays with it. It is sooooo cute. You got some great pictures!
It looks like you had a very Merry Christmas! We've added to our Christmas Eve tradition of opening one gift (pajamas) to also include a book and movie that we can read and watch together that night. Our first book to kick off the new tradition was "The Gift of the Magi".
I love the initials on your stockings!
