I typically do not slow down enough to write or read for pleasure on a regular basis but one thing I do is capture life's moments through the lens of a camera. This isn't something I claim to be good at. In fact, photographer doesn't even come to mind when I think of who I am. What does come to mind is I'm the one with the camera journeying through life as a wife, mother, sister, daughter, aunt, and friend.

12.24.13 - Christmas Eve Tradition

It's an absolute favorite of mine to go with family to a Christmas
Eve Service.  I found a cute dress for Lauren and therefore 
everyone had to dress up just a tad so she didn't out dress us all.

After the service we started a tradition where
the kids open one family gift which is a game.  This year there 
were two: Slamwich (which I highly recommend) and
balloon animals, which wasn't really a game but still
created lots of family fun.  We ended up with a few balloon 
animals and MANY popped balloons.
