It's The Little Things That Count...

I was just washing this plate up this morning, and I decided to take it's picture. It was so appreciative...lol. I have had these plates for years...probably almost 10 years. I bought a whole stack of them in vision of having a large family...which we did. We have lost a few over the years...but they are a favorite for my kids. A small dollar investment has brought years of enjoyment to them. As soon as they know we are having pizza they are in the kitchen drawer picking their pizza plate out. Then we make pizza dough and roll it out...and then garnish it with our favorite toppings. A small amount of money and a small amount of time.
It's not about the big Disney days...or days of lots of money coming out of our pocket. It's the small moments...the little things that we do to create memories. It's the little things that count...

Gratitude Friday

Image
Haven't done a gratitude Friday in a long time. It is nice to take a moment and realize what God has done in your life. 1. Thankful for Matt's new car. When the enemy tried to turn something good into bad, the Lord's provision overrides. 2. Thankful for all of Judah's curls. 3. Thankful for the good report at the neurosurgeon's office on Monday. We are believing for a easy repair of the malformed artery. 4. Thankful for the rain that just came down...so cleansing. 5. Thankful for His presence and His voice. 6. Thankful for my boy turning five. Oh, who knows what adventures we have before us in the future. I can't wait.

Embrace The Camera

This is the first time that I am doing Embrace the Camera. Head over to one of my favorite blogs ...www.andersonfamilycrew.blogspot.com ...and check out her Embrace the Camera day. Her goal is to have a day where you just post pictures of YOU and your kids or anyone special in your life. I have found we have had whole days, outings, vacations where I don't appear in any pictures...so sad right? One day my kids will look back and wonder where I am...haha, behind the camera. Well, that's not good enough. So, here I am. Embracing the camera with my favorite people in the world. After church on Sunday, Esther wanted to take a picture of all of us. This is an impromptu picture. I love these people. After I wanted to snap a picture of one of my favorite people...my boy William. So sweet. I love this little man...toothless and all. Thanks Emily, for continuing with the Embrace the Camera. I finally did it!
