It'd be easy to share the hundred's of photos I took over the past two weeks, but I'm settling on just a few (unless you follow me on Instagram- then you may have seen hundreds ;)). Our first destination was Zion National Park- I'm not sure what else to say, except it was amazing.
Home again, home again, jiggity-jig. Our two-week vacation has come to an end. I didn't blog while we were gone, so I'm a few days late in posting these 12 images from the 12th. I'm also working on a video from 12.12.12; looking forward to putting that together. Good morning, the 12th

Blessings. Our theme for this month's CM blog group. I decided to make a collage from images from my 30-days of thanks project. My blessings:
This little guy thought he was so sneaky, crawling under the table with the iPad. It made me laugh. We're off on our two-week vacation (adventure), so things may be a bit quiet around here. Happy December!
When I decided to start this project, I figured time would get away from me- I wouldn't make it to the computer every day to post, or even remember to take a photo. Well, time certainly got away, but I made myself stay up late some nights, to get these posts up. I found it almost therapeutic, for a number of reasons- it got me shooting every day, & not just with my phone. I use my iPhone a lot! Which means I use my good camera even less (for my kiddos). It also made me document little bits of our every day. In doing so, I played with new light & it inspired new ideas. I also enjoy looking back over the past month, at my own words & images. I feel like I unintentionally created a journal for my kids.
So while I had a completely different intention for this post, I'm changing course. I am thankful for my thankful project. I think I would be tempted to start one in December, except that we are leaving Saturday morning for a few weeks, but I'm sure there will be no shortage of images ;). I hope you enjoy your last day of the month & delight in the holiday season that has arrived.
Be Joyful
Be Peaceful
Happy Holidays~
I think there's something special about the first-born. Maybe it's because I'm also the first-born, I'm not sure. They're kind of your experiment; your on-the-job-training. Your first experience as a parent is because of them. It's overwhelming & incredible all at once. Ry is my first. We've been through a lot together, especially health-wise. He teaches me patience (or sometimes, that I don't have enough); he shows me intelligence, creativity & sometimes too much honesty; he explains unconditional love...& he's one of my three grand adventures. For him, I am thankful.
