We love to go for picnics and it is always fun when we find a new spot to picnic at. This old bridge is just a few minutes from the house and has been the hot picnic spot this week.But the truth is, we do more running then picnicking there. There is something about this old bridge that these kiddos just… Keep Reading
embrace the camera {making bagels and old school toys}
Today is just a normal day. We spent the morning playing with some new-to-us old school toys that one of our bestie neighbors brought over. I tried getting some good shots of the little one and I, but all I got was this shot of some old school erector toys. The kids love these toys, thanks bestie neighbor! Isn’t that… Keep Reading
embrace the camera {valentines day 2012}
Valentine’s Day snuck up on us this year, I guess that happens sometimes. Normally we would spend the day make special treats for others, but this year we spent the day playing with balloons and decorating with hearts. I did manage to make some special heart shaped treats for the kids though. Our treats were far from being fancy, but… Keep Reading
embrace the camera {not too fancy tea parties}
I purchased this cute little tea set a few weeks ago at the thrift store. At the time I envisioned fun little tea parties with the girls. We would wear pretty little dresses and wear tutu’s. Our hair would be all fancied up with bows and ribbons. We would sip on tea and eat little cucumber sandwiches. Boy was I… Keep Reading

I know that someday these little ones of mine will be teenagers and our battles will be much harder then the ones we are faced with right now. Our little 20 month old decided to potty… Keep Reading
embrace the camera {a winter’s day at the beach}
A few weeks ago we had some unseasonably warm weather, so I decided to take advantage of it by taking the kiddos to our favorite beach. It was a bit windy and chilly once we got there and definitely not as warm as I had first thought. We brought some bread to feed the ducks, but they were no where… Keep Reading
embrace the camera {not just another picnic}
We love to go for picnics. Sometimes we drive around looking for the perfect spot and sometimes we just drive up the road to picnic close by. It doesn’t matter where we are or what is in that picnic basket… because it always tastes better when eaten out on a blanket in the middle of a field. Sometimes we spend… Keep Reading

Sometimes I wonder if I was cut out for this job and other days, I just know I was. Gotta have bad days to appreciate the good days right?So yesterday they chopped the corn field across the street….
