The Gift of an Ordinary Day {Group Project}

"Our photo albums from those days are full of pictures of birthday cakes and holiday celebrations, vacation trips and family adventures, piano recitals and baseball games. But the memories I find myself sifting through the past to find, the ones that I would now give anything to relive, are the ones that no one ever thought to photograph, the ones that came and went as softly as a breeze on a summer afternoon." {The Gift of an Ordinary Day} *Join us in documenting the beauty of everyday life.

Pam Carson Yochum Taylor- I think you will be in big trouble of all us women come to see your angel in person. As far as we are concerned-he can do no wrong!!

Profile picture of Taylor Alexander

Taylor Alexander Hahaha, my husband always asks me what I would do if someone recognized him in public - it would definitely be crazy. Believe me, he only looks angelic. At least right now, he's teething and trying to crawl so he has not been a happy camper.

Profile picture of Melissa Wirth

Melissa Wirth So cute! Were his eyes always brown? We're still wondering what color eyes Russell will have! ;)

Profile picture of Dave Thacker

Dave Thacker Hi Bright Eyes! Nice to see you again!

Profile picture of Taylor Alexander

Taylor Alexander @Melissa Wirth, his eyes are crazy! I noticed this week they do look darker but they are still not completely brown. He was born with blue, they went green, hazel, and I'm assuming their final destination are brown considering me and Daddy both have brown. We wished green would have stayed but he would be the first grandchild to have brown eyes, so that's also cool.

{Retail Therapy} Ok, I don't mean the traditional version where you buy stuff to make yourself feel better. This is a shot of my favorite floral/art shop. Every single time I visit it completely rearranged and new. When I walk in I take a deep breath, then I was around and smile at all the inspiration. Do you have a favorite artistic "spot" where you go to find a little slice of peace?

Jan Valencia In Ventura CA there is this little shop on Main St. called "B"on Main-I love it! Unfortunately, here in Las Vegas I havent found anything as charming and unique.

This is my favorite photo of my lady at the beach. Love how dirty she is and how much fun she had!

Cheryl Orwig I love seeing this baby everyday. I read up on why people get feeds they do not follow. It is because when you sign up they you give them some info that you do want and they provide it. It can not be changed. I get some stuff from a montessori school and Im not interested in it. I think if you follow more people the stuff you do not want will eventually go away. Not sure thou. See you tomorrow my little friend!

Meet Nikki Our New Family Member- Ever since we lost our beloved Skippy DaFlippy my hubs has been itching to get a new dog and early in the week that came to fruition. I was hesitant at first because we have had our share of difficult dogs, but Little Miss Nikki has proven herself to be a total charmer. She loves to ride in the car, take long naps, and doesn't have puppy breathe that will peel paint from the walls. My kind of dog.
