the life as we know it......

travel with me in "the life as we know it", caught on camera by my handy dandy phone....

I was at the ball fields browsing camera pics and thought I would share. A friend shared hers awhile back and I really thought it funny because the phone catches the everyday; more so than when we carry our camera around our neck for the "special" events. To me these events are quite special..... 

our every day....enjoy :)

my favorite food is sushi..... this is at Kyoto..

I didn't even know this picture existed until I looked through my phone. Apparently, Jillian wanted to show me that putting on make up in the car is dangerous.....

This was taken on a Saturday morning, when Elizabeth always show us ways she can be industrial. Like, trying to set this basket of pine straw and crinkle paper on fire......

Using a pet hair clean up brush......

Our visit to the fair....

I love to take pictures of things I would like to re-create one day. My sister-in-law's brother built this out door room onto their Aunt's home.......

I love it! 

Miss Emily's face drying for her Tin Man costume on our picnic table bench outside......

Me capturing my frustration when boxes are delivered to me like this..........

A visit with my precious niece Camille.......smile....

No, not Mother's, Birth, or Valentine's Day. Just a happy from my girls.......smile again..... I love Reese's, white roses, Burt's Bee's products and nail polish. That was in the basket bought with their own money :)

The only picture taken of Tim's adventure in the hospital with his collapsed lung..... not sure if he even knew I took this picture...

Lizzy can fall asleep any where, any time....

and I love to snap a shot when she does....

 

Touring Christmas light....and in this case, lamp in the front window {Christmas Story}.........

asleep again......

told you I liked sushi.....this is at Mikata...

Leah working on art for Emily's room............

my trip to Ikea....

I took several of these pictures. My husband is an Electrical Engineer and he was out of town when a prong broke on my steamer plug. He walked me through re-wiring another plug by me taking pictures and sending them to him of my step by step work.... you truly learn something new every day! 

A sofa I wanted to buy.... but didn't....

Emily had a project on nailing a pattern design on a tin can. Tim thought it to be productive, in a timely accurate manner, to bring out his nail gun.....Safety attire was worn, no worries...

I have always wanted a cowboy hat....this was sent to Tim for approval.... and I still didn't get it...it wasn't the price, just not sure...should I???

the coffee table I thought about buying.......

The coffee table I bought......

The other day I burnt my hair off..... don't ask.... and yes I have pink tile (AND turquoise) in my bathroom...still....

asleep again....

a chair I want to recover...(slip cover)...message me if you want to throw me a price, I have two of them! 

a rug I am thinking about....pattern to big???? 

Candy sticks from Cracker Barrel...

Asleep again..... this one really cracks me up......

Sending matching sister pictures to out of town customers...

Tim likes eggplant....trying to be creative with it....it was yummy, even our kiddos liked it!

asleep again......

one of the reasons why I appreciate my husband and employees...they can look at a junkie scribbled sketch of what I have in my head......

and do this......






Jillian just won the Artist of the month at Red Elephant.... she had to draw and color an elephant going somewhere...she chose the beach and drew in pen...go Jillian!

a picture of when I felt something warm hit my foot and looked down and realized that my youngest daughter, and I won't name names, missed the WHOLE ground around her when spitting out her sunflower seed shells ....oh, the joys of motherhood....

Well, I think I will just leave you with the image of the nastiness because I've gotta run! Might venture to phone pics more often. What do you think??

Happy Thursday y'all!
