Feeble Attempts

Some of you may wonder why I don't have OODLES and OODLES of pics of my kids.  I probably have a decent amount of my eldest child, she's graduating this year and for the most part, she doesn't mind getting her pic taken.  She definitely HAS to be in the mood though!

Well, thought I'd share a little glimpse into my life and my attempts... feeble as they may be.

The other day I wanted to get some of my son.  YES, he needs a haircut, I acknowledge this, so no comments please (on the hair that is ;).  Anyhoo, wanted to have some rim light on his hair, bokeh, etc, all the good stuff.  Golden hour was upon us, I saw the set up and ran home to grab the camera.  We had been shooting hoops so I thought he'd be chill enough, ya right!  I couldn't get a serious face out of him to save my life!  End result: got this instead... feeble yes, true to character... MOST DEFINITELY!  Guess I got more than I bargined for ;)

Thankful...

There are many times in my life that I have sat back, breathed in the scents of turkey, cranberry sauce and of course pumpkin pie.  I think that with every year, I gain an even greater understanding of what thankfulness is.

It's the good morning kiss before my hubby heads out the door.  It's the laughter of my children as they joke around with each other.  It's knowing my mom is still here, with us.  It's knowing that I have MANY precious friends out there that have seen me through some difficult times.  It's being able to say, "Thank You" to the One that makes it all possible.

Happy Thanksgiving my precious friends!

May God bless you abundantly today!
