Wednesday Camera Fun

I played around with my real camera this afternoon. 

Sweet tea from Dunkin with a new library book on my Maw Maw's settee. It always sat on her screened in porch when I was little, I am so happy it was passed down to me. 



Our flowers are blooming.

And the newest member of our family Emma soaking up some sunshine. 

Happy Wednesday Friends!

    All I have, is an old Real Camera. -smile- Since we don't have smart phones. Yes, we are among the *3-people-left*, who only have old flip phones!!!! -giggggles- We only use them, for an emergency in the car.

    And wayyyyyyyy back, when we could still go to stores, we used them to call when one another, when one of us was done. We take 2 lists to the grocery store, and got done quicker that way. We _did_ that is!

    But really, I like this curb side pick up of groceries!!!!!! Another good thing, to come out of this Horrrrrrible Virus thing!!!!!

      Curbside grocery is a great thing! I am really glad it was invented. Somedays smartphones can be overwhelming, it's great that all this information is at your fingertips but somedays I think it would be a nice break if it only made phone calls. : )

Fun During Our Extended Break From School

We have been enjoying ourselves during this extended summer. During Covid-19 school was done by packet/ online, dance by zoom and soccer was cancelled. Well thankfully we have finished the school year out. The kids had amazing teachers and we were so sad the year was cut short with them. Soccer and dance have started back up so the kiddos are excited to have their activities back in person.  During our time at home with no outside activities we had fun and accomplished lots. First we all found a show on Disney plus we all enjoyed, I remember it being on when I was a teenager. Now we are watching the original show that created the spin off series we finished.  Chris and I found a show we really enjoyed on Netflix, I can't wait for season 2 to come out. We also swam and played outside. We visited the bamboo park and also planted flowers ( that are still alive! ) I hope you all have a wonderful week! Hope

4th of July Traditions

The 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays. For us it just consists of simple fun and traditions with our family. We have a few traditions that we always do with the kids that I hope they remember when they are grown up.  Glass Bottle Cokes and The Sandlot Glass Bottle Cokes were always a staple at my Maw Maw's house growing up. She had a bottle opener on the cabinet under her sink. I spent lots of time with her growing up and a glass bottle coke will always make me think of her. Plus coke tastes better out of a glass bottle. We also always watch The Sandlot around the 4th, I can't think of a movie that describes summer better.  Patriotic Shirts We always make sure we have red, white, and blue to wear on the 4th. Of course this Mama has to take pictures of her kiddos in their patriotic clothes. These are a few of my favorite from previous years. 2017 2019 My husband also loves to grill out. One of the yummy sides we usually have is corn...

First Day of School 2020

 On Monday my babies started back to school. In these uncertain times we had different options on how we would begin school this year. We could do virtual public school, go back to the traditional classroom, or homeschool. At this point my husband and I decided that it would be best for our kiddos to be back in the traditional classroom. There isn't an easy choice about school in these crazy times. Our school is smaller, they are wearing masks, and taking social distancing precautions. We have prayed about our decision and feel we did what is best for our family. I am praying for the parents out there that are having to make choices about what to for school this year, please know I respect whatever choice you make and I know it's not easy.   How did my babies grow up so fast!?! Brody's first last day of elementary school. 4th grade Evie's first day of 2nd grade.  I hope you all have a wonderful week! Hope
