:: BSM ~ Coming Home ::

Posted on May 24, 2010 by Amanda

As you can tell things are a bit hectic around here. I’m still taking a few pictures and trying to be a bit more purposeful about scheduling writing time. Perhaps the biggest excitement is the final countdown to summer! It’s sure to be a wild ride of fun, sun and family busy-ness!

After a productive weekend with amazing people, there’s still something about seeing the sunset from a homeward bound airplane that makes the journey even sweeter! Here’s hoping I can get a few shots of my sweaty little babes up this week!! We hit 90 today and I think it’s going to be right around there most of the week!

Head on over to Tracey’s for more

:: Team-up Thursday ~ Moment in Time ::

When I Jaimee suggested the Moment in Time theme for this week, I was really intrigued. I already knew where I’d be and began thinking about how I would go about capturing a shot in the middle of our church service without it being considered rude or inappropriate.

It was interesting too, how much the specific details of the task made it feel much clearer, but no less creative and interpretive. even better…when I saw Jaimee’s awesome shot I was thrilled with both the similarities and stark differences between the two. Perhaps my favorite connection between the two is how I was in a church service in Michigan hearing a sermon about the importance of the fellowship of believers…and Jaimee was in Texas enjoying such fellowship.

An impromptu stop to feed the ducks resulted in two happy kiddos! Calder kept saying, “Mom this is amazing!”

Can I just say how much I love those chunky little legs…and here she was so excited about throwing her bread that she kept saying “Throw! Throw!” I think we’ve found what will fast become a favorite summer activity!
