Through the Lens Thursday: Box

It’s been a crazy busy week (in a good way!) and I almost forgot what day it was (for the second week in a row. Ahem.) On Sunday, we celebrated my grandpa’s 90th birthday and my grandparents’ 63rd wedding anniversary in the community room after their church service. My […]

Through the Lens Thursday: In My Cup

So, maybe this should be called “On my plate” because I have a lot. Instead, this is a series of pictures, to illustrate that, using cups? Or something. In My Cup I finally unpacked from my New York trip. We got these fabulous reusable cups from Cabaret, and the […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Frown

I know it’s not Thursday anymore. I got home yesterday from New York City (which was AMAZING) after a very long, very screwed up flight situation (long story). I have so many pictures to share later, but I wanted to go ahead and share one for this week now so […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Red

As you read this, I’ll be close to leaving for or landing in NYC with my mom and meeting up with my uncle for a special spring break trip. Yay!! I’ve never been, but we intend to fill our time with Broadway shows, lots of food and walking, and whatever […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Cute

I told myself that I would not, under any circumstances, post a bunch of pictures of my dog again. I did that already (a few times). It doesn’t matter how cute she is, I would. not. do. it. So I had to figure something else out. My youngest is going […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Words

I don’t make my bed. And I pile books on my puppy’s bed crate. But the words? The words have been next to me constantly the past few months, always being traded and returned and checked out and discussed and downloaded and wish-listed. Through The Lens Thursday is […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Twisted

I realize you’re all sick of seeing my dog. I know that. But I have had a long week and my creativity for the prompt was nonexistent, so you get action shots of a tug of war game with Louise’s twisted rope toy (she’s all better from the surgery and […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Candy

It’s Valentines week, and I recently introduced my kids to Swedish Fish, so…. Happy Valentine’s Day, friends!   Through The Lens Thursday is a self-improvement photography project that Alison of Writing, Wishing and I are doing this year (again!). Don’t forget to join our Flickr group or share […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Polka Dots

Ivy has gotten a lot of craft books from the library lately, and the last couple have been on how to make felt crafts. I love that she can do most of them herself, and she loves to be able to make a cute little project in an hour or […]

Through the Lens Thursday: Table

Every year, during the week of Kansas’ birthday (today, January 29!), the kids’ school lets the kids bring guests to eat lunch with them. Erv and I went this year (yesterday), to sit with the girls during the first lunch and Henry during the second. These are some views from […]
