{Project 52} Week 8

This sunset picture that I took looking out my back door this week makes me thankful…that it was after 6 pm and the sun was setting.  Spring is near…I can’t wait!

{Project 52} Week 7

Last weekend, we snuck downtown to view some ice sculptures at an Ice Carving Festival.  The kids thought it was great.  It wasn’t too cold, in fact there were plenty of puddles that kept attracting Judah.  His snow pants were wet up to the knees!

Me and my girls with a large ice shoe…seems appropriate!

{Project 52} Week 4

Out of no where, they were hugging and calling themselves ‘best friends’.  I have the sweetest children!

{Project 52} Week 3

In this week’s picture, these shoes tell a story. 

The story of a 2 year old who saw her brother wearing Daddy’s shoes and decided to put on her mama’s shoes.  Later, after the kids were in bed I saw these shoes near the front door.  Just like this, with her little slippers still inside.

So sweet and such a reminder that children always want to be in your shoes, following your example, learning from each and everything that you, their parents, do.

{Project 52} Week 2

This sweet girl has been LOVING books all week long.  She will bring one to you and just want you to flip through the pages for her.  Someone tried to take one from her last night, that was a bad idea...she let them know that she wasn't having that!

I had to throw this one in too.  She has such a darling little smile.  Hosanna was behind her trying to 'rock' the chair for her.

Enjoy your weekend!

{Project 52} Week 1

I have decided to do a project.  I know...who has time for that?  Well, I'm going to make time. 

Because I'd like to improve my photography skills and take more pictures of our family, I'm going to purposely take pictures every week.  Then I will post my favorite (or favorites if I can't decide).  At the end of the year, I will have a summary of our year in pictures and probably make a photo book.

Week 1 is a picture I took the other day after we had gotten a little bit of snow and Hosanna and Judah headed outside.  You could still see grass poking through, so I guess she considered the driveway a more appropriate place for making a snow angel and somehow, she centered herself right between the tire tracks.  To me, snow angels are such a reminder of childhood and that's why I love this picture.
