7/365


I love Twister. It is absolutely one of the best family games out there. We all laugh hysterically every time we play it. Poor Eli has the hardest time cause his legs are just not long enough yet but he is determined to play like everyone else.

I love how even the most ordinary things can become extraordinary when just looked at from a different angle. Life is full of moments when we should take the time to see the extraordinary in the ordinary.

5/365


My daughter just had her very first basketball practice. She absolutely HAD to have new shoes for her new sport. We very quickly found out that there is not a great variety of basketball shoes for 7 year old girls. She is not a huge fan of pink but these were about all we could find. However, now she has them all she wants to do is wear them.....with EVERYTHING. I think they may have replaced her cowboy boots.

I have finally started teaching myself to crochet. Once my kids saw me doing it they all had a million requests of things they wanted me to make. One of their requests was blankets so I decided to make each of them a new blanket. Needless to say I did not get them done by Christmas but I am getting close. This is my oldest son's blanket ;o)

This was the sunset we saw as I was taking Caleb to basketball practice. I always picture God looking down when I see the beams. For those who are wondering I did pull over to the side of the road to take this ;o) However, I have been known to yank out my camera while driving along and snap a picture.

One of the things we are loving about our house in Texas is the fireplace. There is just something so relaxing about sitting in front of a fire when the weather is all nasty outside.

So, here we go again. For the 3rd year in a row I am going to start my project 365. Hopefully this year I will make it all the way through; third time is a charm. The kids all had an indoor camp out to ring in the new year. This is after they all FINALLY fell asleep just past midnight.
