Day 11: 90 Day Photo Project

I am back. Again. I had planned on taking Memorial Day weekend off from posting. Then my friend, one of the girls who came up with this project, lost her husband. And while she and her family were in the midst of all that that entails, I just didn't feel right blogging. It seemed more appropriate to pray for her comfort.

Then Summer happened, and I got busier, and well- here we are. In the spirit of the project, I have been pretty faithful in recording the memories, just not posting. I'm hoping to catch up soon. But for tonight, I'll just share my belated Mother's Day present from my sweet husband (hastily finished as it began to storm). Every garden I have started has been hurriedly finished and planted as a storm rolls in. I'm hoping this is a good sign.

If you think of it, say a prayer for my friend Brooke and her family. I don't want her to feel like she or Michael are forgotten...

Day 10: 90 Day Photo Project

Day 9: 90 Day Photo Project

Ok. So I know all the Gibbs pics are a bit redundant, but I honestly can't help it. I mean, look at those toes!

I do promise to try to be a bit more creative, though. Try being the operative word... ;-)

Day 8: 90 Day Photo Project

My two men. Couldn't love them more...

Day 7: 90 Day Photo Project

Day 6: 90 Day Photo Project

Day 6: Baby Pudge.
Oh so pinch-able...

Day 5: 90 Day Photo Project

This is Gibbs' favorite burp cloth. I made it while I was pregnant, and I must admit that it makes me smile.

The back of it is part of an old jumper that I wore when Chris and I were first married. I love that it is huge (for a burp cloth anyway), absorbent, recycled, and carries some history in our little family.

Like I said, it just makes me smile...

Day 4: 90 Day Photo Project

We went on our first bike ride as a family today. Love that.

Gibbs was excited at first, then eventually fell asleep. We have decided that it is a great distraction / therapy for one who's teething. I predict that this will be very valuable in the future...

Day 3: 90 Day Photo Project

Mark Schultz in concert, at my church, supporting the orphan/adoption ministry. Doesn't get much better than that.

Chris and I got to go on a date, (Gibbs had a great time with Grandpa & Grandma) and it was a night I'll remember forever. We laughed, we cried, we were truly moved. Mark Schultz is such a great guy- humble, funny, talented, and really loves God. I wish we could all be good friends.

Day 2: 90 Day Photo Project

One of my favorite moments of today: watching one of the 'bestest' friends a girl could have doing what she loves. Doesn't get much better. Well, ok- the chatting afterwards was pretty fun too. :-)

Seriously. Book Sarah. She's amazing!

Day 1: 90 Day Photo Project Begins

So a group of gals, including some friends of mine, have thrown out a challenge. A 90 day photo project. Exactly as it sounds, you post a pic each day for three months. Then everyone posts their pics onto a group blog. Fun, right?

I'm looking at it as a good way to stretch a bit, and a good way to chronicle the everyday busy-ness that makes up our life right now.

So here's to day one. So far so good...

The View From My Sofa

This is the current view from my sofa. I'd say it's a pretty good one...

Our Family

Just a quick, long overdue, post to introduce our family. This is Gibson (Gibbs). He is proof that God really does answer prayer, and that miracles still happen.

We are so blessed.

Thanks to Sarah for taking our new family photo. She's the best, I promise. So check her blog out and hire her right away! :-)
