The traditional Santa Hat picture is one of those annual traditions that my kids don’t know they love yet. Ever since AJ’s first Christmas, I’ve lined the kids up, stuck Santa hats on their heads, and made them smile for the camera. OK, I take that back. Not even I can make my kids smile…
The Mode Dial: Get to Know Your Camera With Bloggography
For quite a while after getting my digital Canon Rebel, I happily kept it on auto mode all the time. I honestly had no idea what all of those other modes were for. But when I decided to become more serious about photography, I knew that I needed to learn at least a little more…
Not Me
Now that we’re back to our normal schedule of school, work, and all that fun stuff, I am happy to report that I did not sleep in past 8:00 every morning for the last 2 weeks. I totally stayed on my schedule of waking up at 6:20. I am not one of those lazy vacation…
The Power of Hope
It’s amazing how messages sometimes come at just the right time. When I watched this video this morning I felt grateful. Grateful because I recognized that my hope has been restored. A couple of months ago, I had lost my hope. I was consumed by despair because of the stresses of our current situation. Starting…
Give Me Your Best Shot, New Year!
Happy New Year! I’ve been sitting here pondering deep thoughts to share with you for the new year, but I’m afraid today is not a day for deep thoughts from me. Maybe Monday. ;) I do, however, have a favorite photo for you. This picture was taken on Christmas day, on the beach in Florida….
Home Again, Home Again!
We made it back home from Florida safely, and now I am faced with not only the horrible task of unpacking, but also the overwhelming task of packing away all of the Christmas decorations. My house is a mess. In fact, it doesn’t look too different than my in-laws’ house looked on Christmas morning, which…
A Good Friend
We are on our way home today, but in the mean time my good friend, Safire, has a guest post for you. Safire is as good a friend as she describes below. :) She will be the first person I call when I get back home. And, can I just say….I’ll be very happy when…
Meet the Photographers Behind Bloggography
I love that blogging has introduced me to so many incredible people that I never would have had the chance to get to know otherwise. Manic Mother is one of those people. I recently had the opportunity to ask Manic Mother a few questions in preparation for our upcoming Bloggography series. Here’s what I found…
Christmas Photo Outtakes
Capturing a decent family picture is a tricky business. It’s hard enough when you’re working with a photographer. But add the additional element of tripod and timer and it’s an adventure, to say the least. I was looking through last year’s Christmas-season pictures in preparation for I Heart Faces‘ Hilarious Outtakes theme this week. I…
Chocolate Crinkles From the Trenches of Motherhood!
It’s Christmas week, and my family and I are enjoying some warmer weather and time with family in sunny Florida. My friend, Mandy, from The Trenches of Motherhood shared a cookie recipe recently that made my mouth water instantly. She graciously agreed to share it with all of you, too! Enjoy (and as Mandy said,…
