Through The Lens Thursday: Smooth

Smooth, silky coat.

Smooth new haircut.

Through The Lens Thursday is meant for self-improvement, so please….constructive criticism is welcome!

Through The Lens Thursday is a self-improvement photography project that Alison of Writing, Wishing and I are doing this year.

Summer Theater Series: We Will Rock You

I grew up on classic rock….Bruce Springsteen, The Who, Tom Petty, Queen. My dad made sure I had an appreciation for the music, quizzing me about band members as we drove down the road, turning up the songs on the radio as loud as was acceptable.

I also grew up a […]

David Gray Mutineers Album Review

Do you remember the song Babylon by David Gray? Are you singing it in your head now? Can you hear that smooth voice of his? Yeah, I could listen to that voice all day.

Lucky for me, he has a brand new album out now called Mutineers (released today, June 17). […]

Project 365: Week 24

This was a down week…only one or two things planned. I like having things to do and places to go during the summer, but I definitely like to have some relaxed, take it easy, do whatever we feel like doing time, too. It never got above 80 degrees, though, so […]

Happy Father’s Day, Babe!

Due to crappy work circumstances, my husband can’t be home for Father’s Day and we don’t know when we’ll be able to see him again. But, we didn’t want to miss a chance to celebrate our favorite man of the house, daddy, hubs. I asked the kids to let me […]

Through The Lens Thursday: Deep

So, it’s summer break, and it’s been raining (and kind of chilly) on and off all week. Last week was bible school, so there wasn’t much cabin fever happening. But this week, other than The Wizard of Oz, we didn’t have much to do.

Cue closet exploration and the trying on […]

Summer Theater Series: The Wizard of Oz

Growing up in Kansas, you can’t escape it. Go to a conference and tell people where you’re from, and more often than not, you’ll hear “I don’t think you’re in Kansas anymore.” It’s one of those jokes that was funny the first ten times and not so much after that.

Leading […]

Project 365: Week 23

It’s June! Already! June 1 Batman marathon on BBC. All. Day. Long. June 2 First day of bible school! All four kids were old enough to go (yay!), so I had three whole hours to myself every morning this week. Swimming. Erv wasn’t too thrilled, so basically I […]

Project 365: Week 22

May 25 Toddlers have style, yo. And big imaginations. May 26 On Memorial Day morning, my mom and I got up and did a 5K. May 27 The big two went to a two-night camp! It was Henry’s second year and Ivy’s first. And because the big […]

Through The Lens Thursday: Sunset

I wasn’t sure the sun would shine at all today, but it came out after a big storm this morning (which kind of perfectly describes my day and if I was writing things these days, I’d probably try to explain it more).
