The kids come home from school in 30 minutes, and what do I have to show for it? Where do my hours go, anyway? I always seem to have too much on my schedule. I was planning on doing another Tell Me a Story Tuesday, but I spent all evening yesterday posting books and DVDs…

I Heart Faces–Laughter {kids}
Ever since AJ’s first Easter, I have been taking Spring pictures of all of my kids. I typically have the kids sit in a little wicker basket full of Easter eggs. Problem is, the kids are getting bigger, and the basket is not. I caught some fun pictures of Necco in the basket, and then…
I Heart Faces–Laughter {adults}
There’s something about laughter that is so contagious. You can’t help but smile along with photos of people laughing. I’m loving this week’s theme.
Happy Mother’s Day! (Quotes!)

A Little Pampering, Thanks to Whrll!
Ahhhhh! That’s all I have to say. It’s not too often that I get pampered like this. So when Jessica from JessicaKnows.com invited me and fellow DC bloggers to a local salon for pedicures and manicures, I couldn’t say no. Would you? The Mother’s Day salon trip was sponsored by Whrll. (Thank you, Whrll!) They…
Give Me Your Best Shot #13
I had a harder time than usual picking a favorite photo from this week. I debated between the mountain shots, and the airplane shots….but I ended up choosing this one, simply because it makes me laugh whenever I run across it. I was taking pictures of my sister in law and brother, who are having…
You Capture. Expression
I woke up this morning at 6:30, and to make a long story short…..didn’t “find” my energy until about 11:30. I am still feeling pretty crummy, but not as bad as I did this morning. I couldn’t even hold the books that I read to AJ and Reese. At first I thought I was getting…
Wordful Wednesday–My Weekend
My wordfully wonderful weekend top 10 (in random order): 1–Safe flights (five of them!), 4 with window seats. 2–A relief from my allergies, despite all of these: 3–Seeing my little brother (yes, he’s my Little brother!) and his wife ready to have a baby (and convincing him to take some pictures!) 4–Having a super cool…
Wordless Wednesday–The View
PS–my friend Tara is running a Wordless Wednesday giveaway for a 5×7 Cherish Bound book. You must check it out! PPS–Yes, I did take this shot. Window seat. No bungee cords or acrobatics involved! LOL
Here We Go Again….
I’m heading back home today. I’m leaving with a heavier suitcase but a lighter load. There’s nothing like being the kid for a few days instead of the mom to take a load off the mind. I am hoping that today’s travelling goes more smoothly than last week’s flights. All I need on this end…
