We’ve being having unseasonably warm weather in the past week. I’m talking about temperatures in the 70s. Open windows, bare feet, t-shirts and spring flowers. Joey just started squeezing his eyes shut when he smiles. It’s so cute! Rose wanted pictures by the flowers. I didn’t think they would turn out too nice, but I […]

You decided to grace us on Thursday with your presence. You hardly ever show your face around here and it was a welcomed surprise. Sure you can be a nusiance when trying to drive but you let me take some amazing pictures and that totally overruns and hard feelings against you π I decided to […]

I came home from a weekend retreat today (Sunday). The retreat was my youth group’s annual Lenten Retreat. We were in a lodge at a camp up in the mountains. Surrounded by woods, creeks and set apart from traffic noises. One of my favorite parts of this retreat happens on Saturday afternoon. For three hours […]

I’ve come to realize that the internet – although wonderfully amazing – is a little too addicting. Between blogging, reading blogs, pinterest, etsy, amazon, and the fact that I now have my own laptop I have been spending way too much time online. Precious time that should have been spent outside, or playing with my […]

Entering this in Lucia’s Photo challenge. the theme is LOVE in b&w. Recently I’ve been a little MIA due to an overwhelming amount of school. (I just remind myself that I have a year and three months left of high school – they’ll go by pretty fast, right?) I’ve taken a ton of pictures lately […]

Two years ago we were in the midst of two blizzards, one after another. Record snow and upwards of 5ft drifts (maybe that doesn’t qualify as a blizzard for some of you but here that is definitely a blizzard :D). For the kids it was the best weekend ever. Right before the first blizzard hit […]

7/25 {2.7.12} Check out this post to learn about my current photo project: Project 12 Linking up to: This week’s theme was perfect considering that I’ve been taking a food photo each day. The two pictures are SOOC. My setup consisted of slicing the few slices of cheese and then moving the cutting board onto a […]

I’ve been on the hunt for some really good digital software for awhile. I have always loved looking at Kelle Hampton’s (Enjoying the Small Things) photo books that she puts together for each of her daughter’s birthdays and I’ve wanted to do the same. So when I say a giveaway (hosted by Johanna at Growing […]

First up is hosted by Elisha: She has five gorgeous necklaces for five lucky winners. So go enter! Second is found […]

I never got around to starting a 365/366 project this year, but I still wanted to have some sort of photography project/challenge to do throughout the year. Which is why I’m introducing…. This is a monthly project (hence the 12) where each month my photography theme/goal will change. For 25 days out of each month […]

Is he not the cutest little 4 year old ever? It snowed last weekend. Beautiful white snow. Despite beings sick I had to get outside with my camera. And I’m so glad I did. Did you notice Joey rocking those to-big-for-him pink gloves? Yeah that’s because his gloves were lost π That’s our life. Did […]

I never used to think of myself as artistic. I was (and still am) horrible at drawing and I concluded that I was horrible at art in general. Being a perfectionist didn’t help because I would get so frustrated every time I attempted to draw a picture since it never turned out the way I […]
