food, crochet, merriment
right this minute:
Ultra brave restaurant taste testers…
deep thinking reading buddies…
sweet, gentle pumpkin curls…
the magical ability to recover an ice cube before mama catches you…
and five little monkeys—NOT jumping on the bed.
Life is lovely…indeed.
The ideal God holds for us is to form families in the way most likely to lead to happiness and away from sorrow.”
-Henry B. Eyring
This moment.
A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from our lives.
A simple, special, memorable moment.
A moment I want to pause, savor and keep close to my heart.
If you are inspired to do the same–leave us a link in the comments.
Happy Saturday my friends.
Back when the “big kids” were really little kids and not actually big kids, and didn’t have any little kids of their own–are you still with me?–dressing up for Halloween was a month long deal. These guys would tear through the costume box and try everything on and mix and match to their hearts content before finally, FINALLY deciding what to “be” for Halloween. Many times the big decision would end up being made about 3 minutes before scurrying out the door with everybody else to trick or treat.
Look who we have here–Sweet Lyndi the naughty witch, Yellow embarrassed clown Jillian, Purple grinning clown April, friend sixties girl Alyna, and bitty baby bear Daney boy.
Silly little “bald kid” was just a baby, not a big enough kid, and too busy being a baby, and being bald, to dress up. ha ha.
Every year my sister has the best Halloween party on the planet.
It’s a big deal–I tell you.
Even Ariel was there…
along with a bunch of rough looking dudes…
Hippie Jesse–the tree hugger and his wife, Amy…the tree, and a couple of Wiimotes…
Baby Mario and Princess Peach…
Jane and Jimmy Durante...
and a wandering Jack o’ lantern.
The mummy and joker came…
and a Chinese Fortune cookie…passing out fortunes….
pretty little Kate, who won the big prize…
a glowing spider…
and Robin Hood.
The Rock Star girls…
and a bridge over troubled water.
Yesiree–everyone was there…
even spooky Mr. Potatohead. Now there’s a shady looking character.
Wonder if he knows anything about the body under the table.
Yikes.
Mighty spooky bunch!
