I remember being in the last days of pregnancy with my oldest. Every day that passed was a day closer to his ‘due date’. I’m a prompt kind of girl. My dad taught me to be 5 minutes ...
I am not a fan of crowds or chaos or people rushing around like the sky is going to fall. I like slow. No people anywhere. Just the sound of my beating heart (You’ve Got Mail, anyone?) Okay, so...
Well, thanks for all those LOA yells…but I am sorry to say that didn’t work. At least they didn’t work yesterday. And so, I will write about something else to pretend that all in li...
I’m thankful for just being home…with nothing that HAS to be done. No appointments. Nothing on the calendar. Just staying around the house and enjoying a slow pace. I was ready for the ex...
Just a little note to say the next SnapShop begins this Sunday and will end on June 24th. At this point I do not have any other SnapShops on the calendar. I will be doing at least two more in 2012, b...
Today is giveaway day for the May sponsors! How is it already May? I’m going to keep this giveaway open until Tuesday….enjoy your Memorial Day weekend! Benzie Felt Fanfare Giveaway: $20.0...
Later today I’ll be posting this month’s sponsor giveaways……..
One of our crafts/activities this week was to go on a nature walk. My idea was to walk around our area and each kid fill a bag with items they found. Then we were going to go home and create a pictur...
So…some of you asked…Yes, the boys got haircuts. They always request a summer buzz. In fact, the way I got my 6 year old to comply with his annual pictures was by telling him that I would...
School was out last week. Summer break is here. We have no big plans. A lot of nothing everyday. Just the way I like it. Lots of hanging out at the kitchen table. Lots of pretend picnics in the playh...
My first 5K. I had one goal: to run the whole 5k without stopping or walking. I know a 5K is such a short distance for so many people, but for me it might as well had been a marathon. I’ve been...
The incubator you all purchased last month arrived to the orphanage!!! (incubator project post here, update project post here) Love Without Boundaries received a photo this week. The incubator is equ...
So yesterday I shared that I took the boys yearly birthday pictures. My middle son was not very thrilled with taking 5 minutes out of playing in the yard to have his picture taken. I’m guessing...
I try to take some posed shots of the kids each year around the times of their birthdays. Well, I’m a couple months behind with the boys. Time kept slipping away, so I finally just shot a few a...
So…last night Chris and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary with a photo session. Granted, we are nearly approaching our 11 year anniversary, but better late than never. I’ll talk more a...
The four kids in my home had been asking all last week, “Is it Mother’s Day yet?” They were excited to celebrate me. They snuck hidden handmade gifts under their beds. They giggled ...
So today I wanted to introduce this month’s sponsors. I’m thrilled that so many return each month and it is always fun getting to know new ones. I hope you all enjoy your weekend! Catch H...
Each day I take one photo on Instagram of something I am thankful for in my life. I’ve learned a couple of things on Instagram. Everyone on Instagram eats much more beautiful food than I do. Th...
Total random post. Most of these are pics I found when I dowloaded photos from my phone. I need to get in the habit of transferring them more often. I wanted a picture of me and the kids….just ...
This week is Teacher Appreciation Week at my kid’s school. Some of the moms coordinated a snack delivery for each day. I volunteered for yesterday and then reality hit…I am not a cook. I ...
I’ve grown up knowing that what comes out of my mouth is a reflection of what is in my heart. When there is good in my heart, good comes out of my mouth. I’ve always thought about it rela...
I am not a runner. I’m just not a fan of things that require endurance. Even most of my crafts only take a couple of minutes. In February, Matthew Benjamin, a local teenager, came to my church....
I feel like I say “please pick that up” 5oo times a day. I know it can’t possibly be that many times, but it sure feels like it. We’ve needed a new plan…intervention, if...
Leia hair compliments of my 2010 Star Wars costume…brown beanie, hot-gluded yarn buns. Currently one of her favorite hats.
A new month. Is May crazy for everyone else? My calendar is overwhelming me this month. It is going to be making it day by day around here until school is over. Thankfully, May is also full of beauti...
I’m not a wedding photographer. I’ve been away from that area of photography for several years. I feel very much out of the wedding photography groove. It is strange to photograph people ...
UPDATE: THE GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED I can’t believe it is the last weekend of April. This month went by really fast and summer is just around the corner. I’m ready for the smell of sunscre...
Are you sitting down? You should be. Do you have a tissue handy? You should. Are you ready for some incredible news? Get ready. Today I get to give you all the most recent update on the “Incuba...
My boys share a room…a room that is the process of getting a little update. I hung something new on the wall. They were quite happy with my decor choice. Formerly, we had bunk beds in this room...
Over the weekend I got to play the role of wedding photographer. Two years ago I took Rebekah’s senior photos. There are a handful of people I have met through this blog that I’ve also ha...
