A Glimpse Into This Mother’s (Typical) Day.

06_

       

  It’s morning, and the coffee maker gurgles it’s last drips of piping hot fresh coffee into the pot. My boys race to the kitchen to be the one who gets to prepare my first cup of the day. It’s delivered to my hands, wherever I am, followed up with the first smile, kiss and hug of the day.  As my girls sleepily descend down the Read More

New Light, New HOUSE. (We’ve Moved!)

WELCOME, to the ALL NEW, OUR HOUSE OF JOYFUL NOISE! OH, have I been dying to spill, about all of this!  You may have noticed, we’ve barely been posting on the blog, and THIS is why! We have MOVED the blog, switched up our name a little, and started an all new Facebook Page! Generally speaking, we have really just opened up the windows all over the place, and there Read More

Just Something That Makes Me Smile.

When I saw these swans out in the water one stunning autumn day, it really made me smile….

Taking photos is about making memories last, and don’t we all want to most remember the things that make us smile?  I’ve had this photo in my drive for a couple of years now, and although I am just sharing it with you all today, seeing these swans, bottoms- up, has Read More

Today there’s a whole new spin to the perspectives and purpose of this post. I’d love for you all to give it a read, and then join in with your thoughts & experiences, regarding your kid’s sports.

Yes, Grasshoppers Can Do Sit-Ups. (You didn't know that?)

I recently came across this little blogging tip, and had some fun trying it out.

My son {S} is always collecting bugs lately, and bringing them in the house, and I am always sending him back out with them! But this time, I had to take some photos.  This tiny baby grasshopper was so cute!

I had planned to blog these photos anyway, but they turned out to be handy Read More

✔'s, Gems, and X's / Our System for Our Kid's Responsibilities & Behavior

Fair Warning: This is like a 10 minute read.
If you’ve got the time, I’ve got the verbage.
So grab a drink, sit back, & relax.

The Prelude

There are days when I feel like I have 50 things to get done that day. I always have lists going, of my agendas. I’m writing tasks down as I think of them, while trying to take care of Read More

Superbowl Bound!- {A} & the BENGALS!

 

{A} wanted to play Flag Football last year.  She made it to a clinic for the sport, shortly after her basketball season ended, and she made her mark there.

This year she signed up for try-outs to play on a team.  The ref who ran the clinic, was the one running try-outs, and joked to the observing coaches (who were there to watch for who they wanted to draft) Read More

Don't Leave It On The Desk.

 

I have a admittance to make.  I never read those FWDs (forwards), that show up in my e-mailbox. No matter who has sent it (and I get them from people I truly love), I just delete them, without even opening them first.  Because the thing is, there are just so many of them that come, and I know in the end…..some will be worth the read, and some won’t.

Let’s Connect.


Shortly after we started blogging, almost 3 years ago, I found that I really wanted to connect with our readers.  Little windows into the beauty of the various people who visited us here, was more and more evident through the few comments that were left, and the emails that we received, and over time, we’ve even made a few good friends through the net.  So, early on, I felt encouraged, Read More

{A}'s Basketball Team Championship

It’s been a thrilling, and busy, basketball season for our family!  It was {A}’s 6th year playing, but this year the boys were on a team too.   I took photos at 2 games for {A}, and 2 games at the boys.  ( {O} had been taking figure skating lessons. ) But because I was taking photos of all players, just to give to their parents too, and a lens Read More
