10th day of the month, a picture each hour (approximately) I am SO HAPPY with how the pictures turned out for today! Each month just keeps getting better. Our day was busy, but the sun was out and we enjoyed it!
A Visit from Autumn
For Spring Break this week, my niece Autumn flew up and stayed with us for 5 days! We haven't seen her since last summer and we had so much fun with her! The girls LOVED having a "big sister" for the week. The week was full of rubber band bracelet making, Woodland...
Sage’s 3rd Grade African Concert
Last night was Sage's 3rd Grade African Concert at school. She has been talking about it for weeks! They tie-dyed shirts, made hats and created artwork especially for the show. They played drums, chanted and sang. I think it was my favorite school concert so far....

10th day of the month . . . 10 pictures . . .GO! After my disappointment last month with my pictures, I got some advice from a friend and my Dad. The pictures are better this month, but still not great. I'll keep trying . . . So here was our day today. It was just...
Family Photo Shoot
One of my favorite parts of mid-winter break, was taking family photos. My friend Becky graciously gave up some time on Thursday morning to take some pictures of us down by the lake. I'm getting ready to launch a new blog tomorrow and needed pictures of our family...

Valentine’s Day
Valentine's Day . . . a teacher's favorite day of the year . . . OK not really. It's definitely much more fun as a parent than a teacher!! As with every holiday, it's a great day for some and a hard day for others. I spent time thinking and praying for my Dad as I...

February 10-on-10
Let me start off this post by admitting I cheated. I took these pictures on the 9th, not the 10th. I knew the 10th was going to be full of Dr. appointments, school, homework, piano practicing, etc., while the 9th, we were snowed/iced in for the first half of the day...
Super Bowl 2014
So what does Super Bowl Sunday look like at our house? Not much. Tom is working and this is one day full of social gatherings that I do not mind missing out on as a family. For the first time EVER, I actually have the game on (GASP!!), only because the Seahawks are...
