Annibelle is the same way; the only way I can get a good picture of her these days is if she doesn't know I'm taking it. Haha! Ah, little ones. They sure are silly! BTW, I actually love the pic of Hallie; she sure is stunning! (hanna's just adorable too!)
I can't take photos of my boys unless I sneak up on them these days. They're so interested in looking in the viewfinder that they can't be bothered with posing.
This giveaway is now CLOSED. In a week we will find ourselves feasting with family and friends. We will reflect on and share with each other the good things in life that we are grateful for. And I think that's great, to give thanks. My heart lately though has been leaning in a slightly different direction, I've felt an emphasis on a different part of the name of next week's holiday. My heart is filled with gratitude to people who have reached out in love, sympathy, and support when they see others in need.. Those who have voiced prayers, and kind thoughts and words on our behalf, and on behalf of people seeking comfort everywhere. The people who have watched children, sent flowers, made meals, and done so much more to try and ease burdens. And my thankful heart wants to GIVE back to these people, as a small way of saying Thank You. So today I present you with my ThanksGIVEaway. You know those big fancy blogs that are sponsored by corporat...
This is the longest post of all time, but that's because of all the pictures. So I know I shouldn't let myself get carried away since we still have the inspection to go, but... I feel like we've won half the battle, so I will show you pictures now. This backyard is one of the main reasons I wanted this house. It is on a corner lot, and it is really quite large. It extends just as far off to the left. Here you can sort of see the nice swingset we've inherited also, which Hallie will love as it has swings and a slide. This is the playhouse in the backyard. It's about nine square feet inside, and has electrical set up and in the spring/summer you can tell it is landscaped. My girls will be a little spoiled. This is the first thing you see when you walk in the house, aside from the stairs which you can barely see in the left corner. It is a formal dining, but we may use it as a formal sitting room. This is the front door, with the stair...
Look, I know I ask for your help a lot, but you guys are just so good at being helpful, and I am so bad at making decisions. I have about ten posts that I have wanted to write, but I spent a ridiculously silly amount of time on these pictures instead, and now I can't decide which is better. That's your cue to step up and say you'd love to help, so that I can free up my brain to tell you all the other things I've been wanting to tell you. (Oreos are involved, so get excited.) What I do is I take pictures that represent the words of the song I am teaching and then I hold up the page for the line and they (hopefully) remember the words and know what to sing, until they have the song memorized. I do this because about half the kids are too young to read, or read very well. Now you know what I do at church on Sunday. The line of the song in question that I have to teach the kids is "for all His creations of which I'm a part". Originally I just took ...
tee hee looks like Hallie is teaching Hanna how to do it. :) Love, love, LOVE those girls!!

ReplyDeleteWhere did your blood post go? Is it saved to be published a different day?
