Photography Journal #1


I have always liked loved taking pictures for as long as I can remember. It did not matter what I was trying to take a picture of, as long as I was able to get the perfect shot. Now, I realize there really is no *perfect* shot as each frame is unique and each picture has its own story to tell. I have decided to start a photography journal and will post a few pictures each time I update our blog. When you look at the pictures, what story will you hear?

Christmas Crafts





Wow...the Holiday Season is here already and with no time to spare my girls have been busy with Christmas crafts. They have already made over a dozen cinnamon ornaments (which REALLY makes the basement smell good), they have made pine cone ornaments and pine cone Christmas trees. We have salt dough ornaments in the works and will hopefully have them painted by weeks end....HOPEFULLY.

The San Antonio Children's Museum


Another outing we took on our journey from Alaska to Kansas was a stop at the San Antonio Children's Museum in Texas, while we visited  family. I love.love.love this museum! Allison and Madison *really* had a great time and I am pretty sure Sage even found a few things interesting, even though the museum is really geared toward the younger bunch. I tried to get him to shop in the grocery area and push a little basket with the girls but, that was a no go for sure!



 Ever wonder how you measure up?
