kai's stache bash!
day 329.
i was having one of those days.
you know those days.
my hair and my skin and my hairy legs and my unpainted toenails and my whiny son and my stinky washer and my unworking dishwasher and my messy house..well it equals a big fat meltdown.
except i have these about once a week, so they're not uncommon.
but
my sweet sweet neighbor was kind enough to not roll her eyes at my annoying complaint on facebook.
instead she brought over this.
i wanted to cry. how nice!
gosh, i love nice people.
she really really helped me that day :)
day 326.
i love traditions.
andy has TONS of them, and i love that too.
one of his christmastime traditions is making peanut butter cookies.
and as you can tell, its very serious business.
day 322.
happy thanksgiving.
i am thankful for LIFE.
let me explain why i chose this photo. its been a crazy year for me, and for my husbands side of the family, and for a dear friend of mine. LIFE has been crazy. many babies were born, but none of them being mine. 4 of my sister in laws had babies this year. this is one of them. my friend has two babies that were completely unplanned, and she is unmarried. this isn't a self pity post by any means. what makes this whole thing significant and ironic, is that this baby's daddy has cancer, and has been told he has a 10% chance to live. This baby right here was conceived ONE month before they even knew he had cancer, and before he started chemo right after, making him sterile. this baby was a miracle.
this baby was given LIFE.
LIFE is a miracle.
i am so very blessed to have LIFE, while some our struggling so hard for theirs.
day 321.
yes, this year we got our tree the day BEFORE thanksgiving, but it worked out best that way.
it was hard choosing my photo of the day for this day, i got a lot of fun photos on this day.
but i like this one. it says it all. andy is thigh deep in this beautiful , freezing white stuff, plowing mightily toward what is soon to become our christmas tree! man, this guy is tough. he nearly passed out after he cut down the thing and dragged it by himself across that crazy deep snow. not to mention it was probably like -10 degrees.
but even he says it was worth it.
the sky was SO blue and the air was SO crisp, and it was SO dang peaceful. It was truly a winter wonderland.
day 320.
the weather outside is frightful.
but in a way, its sort of delightful!
p.s. this isn't today's right photo. for some bizarre reason i guess i forgot to take one this day..although i refuse to believe that is true. i think i did...my computer just swallowed it up.
