Photo Friday

Okay, so I KNOW it's not Friday but back in January I saw one of my professional photographer friends post about Project 365. The idea is to take a photo a day (or in my case 2 or 10 a day) and chronicle your year. I'm definitely not a professional photographer and I don't have a fancy camera but I do love taking pictures especially of my kiddos. So I decided to participate! I thought I'd upload my photos each Friday and share them on here but yesterday was Friday and I didn't get around to it so here's my first Photo Friday, one day late!

Sunday, January 1, 2012 Playing together. How I love this sight!



Monday, January 2, 2012 "Brother won't share his cool toys with me!"




Tuesday, January 3, 2012 Piper and I stayed up late waiting for Jackie and Jathan to get home from the Sugar Bowl. (We're thankful for the donor of the super cheap tickets!) One of us didn't make it. 




Wednesday, January 4, 2012 Knitting for a new baby in a quiet house--one of my favorite things to do!




Thursday, January 5, 2012 I've had my eye on these curtains at World Market for over a year and haven't had the funds to buy them. I finally went and got them (and the coordinating place mats and napkins) with my Christmas money. Thanks, Mom and Dad!






Friday, January 6, 2012 It was a beautiful spring day (in January) so we opened up the doors and windows and let the breeze (and neighbors) in. Jathan played all day with Paul and Piper enjoyed the sunshine by the balcony.

5 Reasons I Should Stay Off Facebook

1. TMI So, I remember the weirdest things but one brief conversation I had over 10 years ago stands out to me. It was high school and like all high school girls I had friends, enemies, and frienemies. One of my then-frienemies (we've grown up since then!) was friends with one of my enemies. Standing by the lockers one day, frienemy walks up and says in reference to enemy something like, "She shares too much information. Sometimes it's almost like, 'Hey, guys. I just farted.'" Of course, at the time I ate this up and laughed at her expense but over the years it's been a little reminder that more often than not I need to shut up. Just shut up. I've often been tempted (and have too often given in to the temptation) to over share. I think the Internet feels far safer than it really is. I need to remember that. 2. Friends...or Stalkers? Speaking of "friends", I have 321 of them. I know that number is much higher for many of you, but ...

24 Days of Thankfulness: Day 12

She is 12 years old going on 30. She is the epitome of the term "free-spirited." She sings opera in the shower and can ride a bike with no hands and her eyes closed. She can beat all the boys at football at PE. She has her own style and isn't afraid to show it off. She dances for His glory. She can stand on her hands. When she laughs everyone laughs with her. Sometimes I look at her and my heart aches for the years past when I didn't always know what a treasure I had. She is growing--I get to see her maturing a little each day, growing not only in stature but also spiritually and mentally. What a treat it is to sit across from her each day and see the wheels turning in her head! She is the prettiest mad scientist I've ever seen. She is artsy and crafty. She is big sister  extraordinaire! She bickers and complains but without a doubt she loves and that love is returned.  She holds them close and asks for hugs and kisses. Sh...

Jackie's Busy Birthday

Alternately Titled: I'm Really Excited That We Saved a Boatload of Money Today. Today was a super busy day! First off I took the boys to the doctor--more on that later. Then we went to Target to get Jathan some church shoes (and a Barrel of Monkeys). When we got home we left almost immediately to go to Mellow Mushroom for Jackie's birthday. Yep, he's another year older today but don't worry, he hasn't shown any signs of growing up yet. = P We had gotten a couple of gift certificates to Mellow Mushroom, one of our favorite pizza joints, through New Orleans Perks where you can get 1/2 price certificates to different restaurants. So instead of spending $30, we spent $15 and filled up on some DELICIOUS cheesy garlic bread and the house special. After Mellow Mushroom we went to Academy Sports so that Keeleigh could look around. She's been wanting a tent to play in and they had a 7x7 one on clearance for $16! She's so excited that she wanted to set in up on the b...
