This Week

I miss my girls today. A lot. I'm glad it's Friday so that we can be together this weekend. I have a photo shoot on Saturday but then I'm parking myself on the floor with them to play, or maybe ride bikes, or sit around longer at the dinner table, or play with dolls, or read that chapter book I started with them (Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm) I can't wait!

Here's a peek at our week. I picked up my camera lot this week and boy... it felt good! Now if only I can find some time to scrapbook these memories... I'd feel on top of the world.

Muffins to bring for the Raffi Concert car ride

And oh my goodness... my favorite from the whole week.... Abigail and her very first viola teacher. He was actually a student teacher, and this was their last day together. He sure had a lot of patience for this little student. I love his smile.

She sure came far this year.

And let's end this week (or start this weekend depending how you look at it) with this. Oh love!

  3. Isn't it something how they change right before our very eyes? I sometimes think what if I just watched them 24 hours a day...would I actually see them growing...: ( Have a great weekend, dear friend!

    P.S. Would love to hear about those muffins...you know about me and muffins!

  4. Such lovely pictures and I love catching those candid moments like when they play games and build things with their daddies. Beautiful tulips and so wonderful to see children engrossed in a good book! Muffins look delicious! Hope you are having a great week my friend.

    Blessings,
    Jill
