The camera says otherwise.

I was sitting here looking at my sad, neglected, un-updated blog, and thinking, "I thought we did things, but I guess not, since I have nothing to update!" Then I thought, maybe my camera will help me remember the things we have been doing...of course, that is under the assumption that I actually remembered to take it with me!

But once again, it is my camera to the rescue...reminding me that we do indeed have a life!

Here is a picture Jordan made in school, that he is obviously quite proud of:

Isn't he so cute!

Any ideas what the picture is???

Give up??? Hint: check out the the BLACK CHARACTER's EARS.

Here are some pictures of the kids with their cool face paintings from an army activity that we went too. Of course, I forgot to take the camera to the activity with me, but at least I got these before they were all smudged!


Here are pictures from our last snow day here in Kentucky. It actually snowed enough that I wished we had boots and the right kind of gloves to make a snowman. Unfortunately the snow wasn't snowman building snow.

Here is my sad attempt to protect Elizabeth's feet.

She was the only one that wanted to get out and brave the cold. Not only that, she was also brave enough to go out regardless of what she looked like when I was done making her Mukluks. Lizzy with her best friend.

We cleaned off the driveways and sidewalks, before retreating back inside to the warmth. I miss not having the right kind of winter gear when we get snow.

This the kids attempt to clean off the van. I had to scrap this off the next morning when it had all frozen over.


Next is documentation of my attempt to clean up and organize. First I started with the kids linen closet. I was getting tired of looking at it every time I put away clean towels.
Before:
So I organized it and cleaned a few things out that we no longer needed.
The after is in two sections since I had to back all the way into the bathroom to get the full shot and it was occupied, so...
After, bottom view:
Top view:
As much as I LOVE all the pictures and stuff that my kids make for me, realistically I cannot keep them all, especially not when we move every couple years. SO...I take pictures and then dispose properly and carefully of said treasure.
Here is something that Elizabeth made for me this Christmas:
Here is an up close picture of the cute things she said:

She is such a sweetie!

Last of all there were a whole bunch of the most recent projects that I have started working on, or have just aquired so I can make them pretty!
You will just have to wait and see the finished projects. But here they are in all their half-finished glory.
These are 2 of the things I got at a thrift store for 50 cents. I know!...they got hit extra hard with the ugly stick, but just wait and see and they will be pretty again!

So thanks to my camera, I have documentation that we do indeed "have a life"...kind of. Thank goodness for my camera! Now if only I could remember to take it places with me, I could bore you guys more often!
