Day 22

My Project 365 is more like a Project Random. I can't seem to keep up with it. But I enjoy posting when I can.

{Our VERY foggy and ICY day.}
This picture taken at 1:30 in the afternoon. I have never seen fog so thick before. When it is 18* outside the fog puts some awesome ice on everything!!

Day 16

{I'm not tired...famous last words}

Day 15

{Playing Store}

These two play so well together (for the most part). Actually, any combination of the two seems to be a good match, but throw in the third kid and instant crying..

I'm working on it :)

And yes! that clerk is with no pants. He lives like that about 90% of the time. He hates pants... his sister hates that he hates pants.

Day 14

{In the WORD}

This was L's first time picking up a bible that wasn't a child's version and reading it. It started when he saw a verse printed on an ornament on the tree. We looked it up. Then he wanted to read the Christmas story, so he read me Luke 2:1-20. Then he asked about the letters in red. He asked to read more about what Jesus said. So he read me the Sermon on the Mount! Have to admit, one of the best experiences of my life. I love that boy.

Day 13

{Snack Time}

Project 365 - Day 12 (Playing Catch Up)

{What makes my house smell good}

I love scented pine cones.

Day 7

{Playing with Daddy}

We let the kids play video games for the FIRST TIME EVER today!

It was love hate. So much frustration comes with using fine motor skills.

Day 6

{My Patient}

Today the little two have a stomach bug.

They can't keep ANYTHING down!
They have been so snugly and sweet.

I'm pretty sure J turns into the world's sweetest child when she is sick.

She smiles every time you enter or leave a room.

She says thank you for everything and we get to hear "I Love You" a lot :)

Hope they feel better tomorrow.. my poor babies.

Day 5 (Late again!)

{The stockings were hung by the chimney on the wall with care}

Day 4

{My Handy Man}

Whatever it was that needed fixin'... it was serious work.

Day 3 (a day late)

{My new manicure.. the reason I missed yesterday}

Yesterday ended in an impromptu girls' night for me. One girlfriend asked me to go get nails done for our husbands' Christmas party (which is tonight! Yay!), and then another asked me to go shopping with her for a dress. So I spent the evening out, had a BLAST! and completely FORGOT!

Geesh day 3 and I'm already cheating at this.

Day 2

{Our Little Manger}

Christmas decor is almost done. We have inside lights, stockings hung, manger out, garlands strung, but no tree yet. Colorado is a dry dry state, so we are holding off a little - we don't end up with a tree that bursts into flames on Christmas morning. Tomorrow we are doing the outside lights and hanging Christmas cards around the inside of the house.

My mom started my favorite tradition (you can see a little in the pictures here) - EVERY SINGLE card I recieve is dated on the back, attached to ribbon and hung around the ceiling of the house. I remember my mom's would go through every room in the downstairs and up the stairwell. So cool. Right now my measly collection will probably only fill my great room when hung.. but I look forward to the days when I will fill the house with the loving thoughts of family and friends from years past :)

Project 365: Day 1

My girlfriend Brooke has decided to pick up her PROJECT 365 blog entries and I have decided to join her. Basically it is just a photo from my everyday life, everyday. Sounds simple (I don't know that I will be able to keep up, but I hope so!) and fun. Besides I miss playing with my camera and this gives me an excuse to pick it up EVERYDAY!

{Reading time. L reads to J for a 1/2 an hr a day for part of their schooling. It is one of my favorite times of the day. They do it nicely and it makes my heart happy}
