Divine Appointment

This is to update an older post...from back in September of last year. We did paint my living room and I love the way that it looks. I am so thankful to have the mural that I painted for the Coffee house, now in my own home.
There is a story behind that! A few yrs ago...my sweet husband decide to plan a special picnic surprise for our anniversary. He woke me early that morning...after he had packed a picnic lunch and planned a romantic spot to take me to. I was very surprised. In fact when he gave me a kiss that morning...I thought he was telling me bye so he could go to work. My eyes widened when he told me what he had planned for us. It was very sweet...we went to a water fall and ate our lunch to the sound of the water singing it's splash song. We took a hike by the river and had a wonderful time.
On our way home we mentioned stopping at a local coffee house to have a cup of joe. This was the same coffee house where I had painted the mural that you see at the top of my blog. My husband seemed to change his mind and we were almost to the exit. I suddenly had the urge to get coffee...very strongly. lol So, I quickly veered off onto the exit...taking my husband by surprise. We went into the coffee shop and found, to my sadness...that the shop was closing down and that it was the last day to be open! I looked at the mural on the wall and wondered, what was to become of it. I asked the cashier and she said, "I believe that it will be left behind." At that point my heart was sinking and I looked at my husband and asked him to please rescue my painting for me. He was my night in shining armor. He made it happen! He called the owner of the Coffee shop and the next day he and a friend brought my painting to rest at it's new and final home. I'm so thankful for my husband. We had no idea at the start of our day, that God was setting up a divine appointment, and that it would end with such a gift being given back to me.
I hope you enjoy the updated pictures. I still have to find time to turn the coffee bean plantation into a wine vineyard. One of these days...I will get a round to it. lol It's on my to do list.
