A special friday...77/365

Last friday I was so excited to be a part of "First Fridays" in Bixby Knolls. First Fridays is a night when artist get to showcase their work to the local community, hang out amongst other artys people and possibly sell some of your stuff. Here was my set up. I love the way it turned out. I was so proud, seeing all my stuff on display like that. While, I didn't really sell as much as I would have liked, I definitely enjoyed the night. Thank you to all of my friends and family that came thru to show little 'ole me some love. You all are too good to me. ;) And here is the man of the hour. He makes all my pictures look good. I love you son. with love, {j}

Oh yeeeeah!...75/365

When we were younger we used to drink kool-aid like it was going out of style. We used to mix packets together to try and make new flavors i.e. grape+lemonaid= grapeaid. I was so good at making it that I didn't even have to measure the sugar, I could just pour and knew by looks when to stop. Haha! In the summer time put it in the freezer and make popsicles out of it. Yessss. Kool-aid was definitely the stuff. I don't make it so much anymore today though. If my kids get it, it's usually a last resort treat. All that sugar that I know how to pour in by sight looks like a whole lot more than it needs to be. Don't get me wrong, you will still find this as a staple in my kitchen drawer, I just can't help myself at the grocery store, but we just don't drink it as much as I did as a kid. My favorite flavor is still (and always will be) Tropical Punch! What's yours???? red...purple...orange.... Oops! I mean cherry, grape, or orange.... Hahahaha. Kool-aid, forever yours.

Be still...74/365

and know that I am God. ~Psalm 46:10 {j}

Randomness...73/365

Things to be happy about today... the remote control in your possession, pizzazz, going roller-skating on a saturday, Wi-Fi cards, and multi-colored earrings...

Be blessed.

Special....72/365

Sometimes its hard to remember... Sometimes I tend to forget... just how special these three really are. When life gets going and things have to get done, sometimes I treat these kids as ordinary when I know they are anything but. . I am thankful for my camera though, because late at night when I am laying in bed completely worn out by the day I pull out my lap top and up come some pictures that remind me just how special my kids really are, and I am humbled. Thank you Lord for reminding me of the little things...

♥,

Art is relative...71/365

My girls took an art class and they really enjoyed it. It was just a one time thing, however, since the art studio was going to have an art show the girls were allowed to admit their work to the show. This is them at the reception, each one standing by their own pieces. Let me tell you, I was so proud of these two, and so amazed at the great job they had done. They both did some awesome stuff. Even now as I look at them I am grinning ear to ear.

Thank you Lord for these girls You have blessed me with. They have talents within that I could have never foretold, and I know that this is just the beginning. I am blessed by just being their mother. You, Father, remind me of that daily.

I love you girls, and am proud of everything you do.

love,

mommy
