Our Story

Right now, we have less than 3 weeks of school left this year. (Really, we should be getting out a week earlier, but we had tons of snow days, so now we get out 5 days before Memorial Day. But that’s another topic…) This was my first year with all my kids in school full […]

As a new photographer, and even now, one of my favorite things to read is what gear other photographers use and why they like it. I’m pretty sure I get my gear obsession and love of shiny new things from my dad 🙂 and what I shoot is a big part of my style today. […]

It is COLD out…like this morning was -5 with a -15 degree windchill. This month I am all about all things cozy and staying in and trying to avoid sickness and cabin fever and yay for Valentine’s Day! So, here are a few things that I love this month…enjoy!! These fleece-lined leggings. They are super […]

A couple of years ago, I posted a list of things I was loving that week every Monday on my blog. I always love reading other people’s lists so I decided to bring it back! I’m planning on just once a month this time around…Enjoy!! This is what I love this month… My Barefoot Dreams […]

We are only halfway into September and I already miss summer like crazy. Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad that my kids are back in school and they are way happier with a routine…but, we had a great summer. 3:00 p.m. This is usually where you could find us 2-4 times a week: at the […]

First of all, I just realized that I have sorely neglected my blog over the summer!  I’m ok with that – we were out having a blast this summer – but it’s probably not that great for my photography business 😉 I did capture a self-portrait for our July Around Our Clocks blog circle! 8:00 […]

9:00 a.m. Now that I’m looking back at this photo, it seems so long ago!  The kids were still in school and my 9 a.m. hour was pretty quiet on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.  Right now I miss spending time in my kitchen!  With the craziness of summer, I’ve only actually cooked a handful of […]

2:00 p.m.: My mom has been bowling in a league for years on Wednesday afternoons…I never quite understood the appeal until I started subbing a couple of years ago for their team.  It was really fun!  This year, I formed my own team with my sister and two friends.  At first, we all felt a […]

6:00 p.m. The 6:00 hour in our home is always the same: supper.  I aim to have supper on the table right around 6, but now that the weather is getting nicer, it seems to be about 6:15 or so before we actually sit down and eat. After supper, the kids usually go play together: […]

10 a.m. This was a tough one for me to figure out what I wanted to share! My 10:00 hour is so varied depending on preschool schedules, Bible study, moms groups, etc.  This was taken on a day in late February when my middle daughter was home sick from school. Our electricity was also out for […]
