I took some photos this afternoon. A group of adorable kids always make great photos!

Mia loves her little kitten. She was so excited to add "feed the kitten" to her chore list. Wish I could have the same joy when another chore is added to my list!



Mia loves her little sister, Kaci. They are the best of friends!



Mia loves her daddy ...



Mia also loves her mommy and brother, Grazzin, but I don't have any recent photos of us together with her. Looks like I need to take some!

one of my favorite blogs

I have been following Mom*tog for quite awhile now. I love it! Drew has a great way of explaining photography and I have learned so much. I finally understood how to shoot manual by reading her blog. It was such an exciting moment! lol I consider her blog to be my "secret source" of photography knowledge. And one of my favorite reasons for checking it daily is to see all of her great photos. They are unbelievable!

Here are some of my favorite shots I've taken since learning more about photography from Drew. Thanks so much for your blog, Drew! You have helped me improve my skills and I know I will continue to learn more from you!

birthday

Grazzin is now eleven! Happy Birthday, little man. I won't be able to call him that for long since he will soon pass me up in height.





Mia gave him a movie and Grazzin was thrilled to get his first BB gun from his grandma and us. We had a fun party here at our house last night.

Reformation Party

Providence Church is hosting a Reformation Party tomorrow evening from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. We are going to be learning about the life of Martin Luther through games, crafts, and singing.

Come on out!
Costumes are welcome!
Bring a finger food item and a bag of packaged candy!


October 31, 1517 was on of the turning points in the history of the world. On that day Martin Luther nailed his 95 Theses to the door of the Wittenburg Church, and with that deed, the Protestant Reformation was born. What to know more? Come to our Reformation Party!

preschool/kindergarten

Mia wanted to share a couple of videos showing the things she has been learning. This age is so fun .. she's so eager to learn and it's too cute to watch her eyes light up when she understands a new concept.

I love having the privilege to home school my children!

indoor fall fun

Hope this inspires you to come up with some creative forms of entertainment this fall!
