Flying high.

Candy Cane decided to fly high above to watch the kids.  Every year the kids just love him and are grateful for his return.

Project 52 - Week 4 - Self Portrait - Miracles happen!

I have to say this was my least favorite post because I am not a fan of being in front of the camera. One of my New Year goals is to have a professional family photo take that I am actually in. I am so much more comfortable behind the camera. It feels so natural for me. A few years ago I was celebrating my 40th Birthday which was a great one I might say....40's are terrific! During this time one of my dear friends was looking for pictures of me and realized that she didn't have any which surprised her and me at the same time. I told my husband that I need to make sure that I am in more pictures so my kids can remember me in their childhood.  Just kidding!  I am a stay at home mom which is a huge part of their childhood, but I do need to take some of my own advice and document my life along with theirs.  Thanks to Darcy for the assignment.

What does photography mean to you?

Project52 - Week 3: I Dreamed a Dream - What's the story?

There is nothing like browsing through anitque stores.  It always makes me smile to see all the treasures that have been uncovered for others to re-discover.  I think it's amazing how people repurpose things, but most of all I love how new life is brought to these treasure.  It's as though they are moving foward to share their story.  I would love to know this camera's story and where it's been and who it's been with and what has it seen.  If only it could talk!

Big Sister took little brother on a jeep ride

This had me rolling. Oliver LOVED being chauffeured around the yard by Sydney. She was in her GLORY because she was showing him how things are done. Oh my GOD it was funny!

Dancing and music before bedtime!

Oliver has discovered how to dance and he enjoys his saxophone. Sydney just loves to dance and thanks to her Nannie she has a great disco ball.

Farmhouse delivery

What an amazing evening! A friend of mine invited me along with several others to her book club and we had a great time enjoying organic food cooked by Chef Elizabeth. It was HOT, 113 degrees! Ugh!

My early birds snuggling!
