Project 365: September 2018. Itty Bitty started walking. He’s not quite so itty bitty anymore. A 12 inch worm had me thinking we had snakes in our backyard one morning. I thoroughly enjoy sidewalk chalk, but my artist abilities are limited. Joey and I went to Old Settler’s…without any kids š

My Project 365 | August 2018
Project 365: August 2018. We moved from Texas to Kansas. Joey was gone for practically two weeks. There is cardboard everywhere. Our Texas house went on the market. Mommy’s favorite toy is chalk. We bought our Kansas house mainly for the giant, two shower-head master shower. Tons of new family time with my family, but…
My July in Photos | 2018 Project 365
July. We bought a house. We took our first kid free vacation in years. We spent as much time outside as we possibly could. Itty Bitty slept through the night for 3 weeks straight. THREE WEEKS! Then it ended painfully. But he’s been back at it since mid-late August. That’s right son. Mama is not…
Our New Home | Moving Back Home to Kansas
We moved! Again. For the 6th time in 8 years. Whew. I feel like we are professional movers some times. Though not really, because MOST of those moves were company moves, which meant they did the packing, loading, and hauling for us. Most of those moves also did not include children…though two of…
My Secret to Understanding the Bible
I have to confess: I often don’t understand the bible. I grew up in a Christian home. We went to church every Sunday. I learned to pray early on and it became a part of my daily life. But reading the bible was another story. I never did it consistently. I would read it and…
My June in Photos | 365 Project 2018
On this cool, September day, I give you my June 365 photos. š With lots going on this summer, there were many times that I was playing catch up, or simply not even interested, but I still kept going back.

March in Photos | My 2018 365 Photo Project
After a week and a half of not having a computer (new battery), I finally have all my photos off my memory cards and on my computer to edit. It may have been a few hundred after culling down from over a thousand! š I like to photograph things! But I’m getting better about being…

My 2018 365 Project | February in Photos
Another month of photos down. I’m still behind here and there. Often it’s the getting them off the camera and posted online part that holds things up. Sometimes it’s difficult to find the time or energy to do that each day with life pulling me in different directions. I try not to let that get…
The Benefits of a 365 Project
I love 365 projects. I did one two years ago. I loved getting to capture my life, family, and surroundings. I enjoyed putting my own spin or meaning behind the prompts. I loved pushing myself to capture things each day, and to keep going when I fell behind. I did fall behind, a lot. Sometimes…
