~ This Moment ~
A Friday ritual....a single photo....no words.....capturing a moment from the week.  A simple, special, extraordinary moment.  A moment I want to pause, savor and remember.  Happy weekending !!!

A little photo fun....
My efforts to schedule a family shoot with a pro turned out to be all in vain......yes, the stomach bug moved in on us the night before the session.  When you are trying to get pics before Christmas and you have like a week left you know things need to come together, somehow.  We decided to see what we could come up with on our own....Ivan brought his tripod and he and I took turns setting the camera timer and jumping in.....Here we go....hope you enjoy :)

a few behind the scenes....this wasn't what some of us had planned for a beautiful Saturday afternoon!










Now for a few of my favorites :)



 






We had a lot of fun.....despite the fact that we didn't know much about what we were doing.....these are strictly point and shoot but I am happy!!!   Have a great rest of the week.....thank you for visiting!!!

~DECEMBER~
Even though it's getting close to the "Christmas" season the weather feels more like October.....sunny and quite warm.  We've had a few gray days but not much rain and no snow.  I've never seen a white Christmas.....so maybe this will be the just the year for that!  Anyway, here's a few pics from the farm recently....things are beginning to take on a wintry look!  Hope you enjoy :)

early morning sky :)
Have yourself a wonderful week !!!

 ~ Today ~
---------------------
 




 I am.....

  • wondering how the year has flown by so quickly
  • enjoying the Christmas season
  • loving all the gift making (in every corner) that's going on
  • soaking up every minute of watching my children do for others
  • practicing music every chance I get
  • slowing down and trying to take it all in
  • remembering that our school days before Christmas are numbered :)
  • realizing that I can't really take it all in.....just enjoy the moment
  • thankful for all of my family and friends
  • slowly (very slowly) adjusting to Ivan not living here
  • hearing Christmas carols streaming from the piano
  • feeling very blessed
What's going on in your world today?   Hope you all have a wonderful week.....thank you for visiting!!!
