Photography blurb

Unused Groupon + Canvas ruined by water (hanging over kitchen sink) = New canvas ordered tonight using one of my own butterfly shots!

Can't wait to hang it up! And hope the new one is a little better protected!

Early Valentine's Day

My first post in a LONG time! Yippee!!! And it's about love...may that be a good sign for the coming year! A LOT MORE LOVE!

We had to celebrate Valentine's Day early this year since we won't all be together on the day. It's kind of nice to stretch it out over an entire week! I would highly suggest it to anyone who wants to try it! :-)

My valentine to my honey...

My honey's valentine to me...

My valentine to everybody... (needed the box for the Starbucks valentine)

My honey's other valentine to me...this is the bestest one! :-)

Daddy gave his boys each one of these... Think he knows what they like? Uh-hunh!!!!

Friday...Turkey Day!

Turkey was still turkey a day late...and really, we've all realized that Thanksgiving really is NOT the food you eat...it's being with family and enjoying life to the fullest! (Thanks to Andrew, my editor.)

Our placecards for the table...

The techies and their computer projects

Tickling the ivories

Cousins and screen time!

Making cake pops

Andrew learning about Corey's Arduino project. (programming...not something I understand!)

Smiling through the steam!

My turkey carvers!

Ahhhh...finally we get to eat turkey!

Thanksgiving Day!

Logan down on the Farm!

Logan loves his new Playmobile farm he got for his birthday. (Always makes the parents glad when they actually play with what they got him!) We set it up today on the train table and his imagination went wild!

He donned attractive head gear...

He covered the people with cats!...

He sent the kittens up the elevator (the cutting attachment on my paper cutter!) ...

Here they are on the 10th floor...

And he watered his sunflowers (because mom waters her flowers!).

A beautiful butterfly day!

...among other things. Like cleaning up the yard and winterizing things and having bonfires complete with hot dogs and s'mores! But this is the one thing I snuck off and photographed. :-)


Painted Lady on my blue salvia...

No School day!

Well, I've been a bit busy keeping up my new blog...my 365/Grateful Project, but thought I better post something here. A collage is handy to do a bunch of pictures at once, so here's mine from today! Had fun with the boys playing putt-putt!
