Through The Lens Thursday is a self-improvement photography project that Alison of Writing, Wishing and I are doing this year.
The windchill on the first (scheduled) day back to school Monday was somewhere around –20 degrees. So, the kids had a day off from school….on the “first day back.”
Thankfully, we […]
So, we officially ended 2013 and began 2014! I started (with Alison of Writing, Wishing) a photography self-improvement project, and if you’d like to join in a work on your skills with us, we have a flickr group! It’s very casual, just a place to post photos based on the […]
It’s been a very holiday week around here! Lots and lots of Christmas celebrating. Lots.

Sunday was Christmas at Nana and Papa’s house, with most of the relatives in Arkansas.

On Monday, I had lunch with my AR BFF (and didn’t take a picture, sheesh), then we went to Nana’s […]

We’re in a bad stage with Erv….if he naps, he wants to stay up longer than I even do (like in this picture, taken at 10 pm). If he doesn’t, the whining and crying start at 4pm and last until he goes to bed. I don’t like it. He […]
So, I was really busy and tired this weekend and I didn’t get to posting last week’s Project 365. Here are both!

Ivy had her second basketball game, and Henry, Essie, and I (along with my parents) were her cheering squad.

It got cold for a while. Thank goodness for […]
The other day, Erv and I were in the car, driving to pick up Essie from preschool. He found a puffy Santa sticker in the backseat.
Me: Is that Santa?
Him: No! It’s Fanta Clause.
Me: Is Santa Clause going to come to our house on Christmas and bring some presents?
Him: Yeah.
Me: What […]
If last week was nice and warm, this week was brutally cold. It made it hard to want to leave the house, you know?
Nov. 17
Ivy had her first basketball game. Then when the big three went to bed, and the one who still naps got into his sister’s lip gloss.
Nov. […]
Ivy joined a basketball team, and because of some miscommunication, she had one practice before her first game last Sunday. Her team is made up of a group of her first grade friends, so she’s having a lot of fun so far.
But she’s small, and because she had only gone […]
Do you ever have those weeks when your kids are just…..awful?? Like, you talk and talk and talk and nothing is being heard? Yeah. That. Nov. 10 World Run Day! It was actually a really mild night, and my mom and I went to the track to run our 5K. […]
