hello mr. handyman!

A shout out to all the handymen out there that look fantastic in a tool belt!!  I'll be the first to say it...my man IS the MAN!  He works so hard during the day then comes home and fixes the toilets, sinks, and every other broken thing that seem to fall apart in these old houses.  Matt is so wonderful to us and takes care of us outside of hanging my endless amounts of frames and home decor and doesn't complain (too much...) when I find a steal at a thrift store that would "look SOOOOO good taking up an entire wall in the living room!"  

There is nothing he can't fix and I'm telling you, I can't imagine how much money we would have spent painting, repairing, fixing our faithful cars, and all the upkeep that comes with life.  Growing up and being home schooled, he had opportunities to learn under his dad on the jobsite.  I should thank him more that he took the time to teach his boys how to be good workers.  I'm about to do a little bragging...and no apologies on my end :)

 This is a patio Matt built, overhang, and columns.

This lovely hanging bed in the sun room that I fully intend on adding to my honey-do list!

Matt gives to everyone.  He will help you do anything you need just because you ask!  He has a servants heart in ministry and in the every day things.  He provides for his family, he's a loyal friend, and he is such a wonderful daddy.  I have never worried that our needs wouldn't be met because he works with all that he has. 

Colossians 3:23 "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men,"

Babe, I don't tell you enough.  You work so hard so that I can stay home and love and enjoy our children. I am so blessed to be able to not miss a thing as they grow up rapidly before our eyes. Its because of you and I'm so thankful!  Thank you for being a wonderful provider and not relying just on your own efforts but trusting in the Lord who blesses us abundantly. Not to mention...you really do look totally sexy in a tool belt! :) Love you!!!

If you have a hot handyman in your house, be sure you tell him how much you appreciate him!  Our houses wouldnt be as snazzy and well decorated if we had to do it all on our own.  It's the little things.

For HIS glory,

Amanda
