Disney Infinity = Family Fun


We just started to check out the video game Disney Infinity which we have the 1.0 version.  Kids love it, I LOVE IT!  lol.  Fun for everyone.  It has replaced Minecraft for my kids.  Great motivation for my kids to get school work done!  As a reward when they are done with their school is to play the game!  We can't wait to check out 2.0 version in the future. 

Career on HOLD!

I just had my last wedding!!  It's official my career is on hold!  After having a blooming career as a photographer for 6 years, I'm putting my career on hold for my kids.  I love my job and my passion is photography!  But life is so short, my kids are growing up so fast.  Being a photographer you work long hours, not just shooting but also editing.  There has been many times my kids would say " Do you have to work?"   I want to focus on just being their mother.  Before I know it they will be all grown up and on their own.  I can always go back to my career after that.  It felt so good to finish my last job.  Here are photos from my last wedding. 

Dr. Suess Day!!

At our home school we had Dr. Suess Day!!  Each kid read a Dr. Suess book in front of all of us.  We watched The Cat in the Hat and Horton Hears a Who!  Crafts, board game, Bingo, writing, and Cross Word.  Kids dressed up, who could look the craziest. 




Valentine's Day!

We had our Valentine's Day Party!  With plenty of crafts, games, and activities.  I loved the BINGO! Kids made Valentine's Cards and gave them to friends/neighbors/family. 


Animal Projects

One of our favorite school activities is doing presentation projects.  This is our 2nd time doing this project.  Each child picks one animal at the zoo they like to learn about and then does a presentation in front of all of us. We went to the library, kids wrote down facts.  After that we went to our community club house to work on their poster boards.  As an award they get a field trip to the zoo to see their animal!  Kids learned so much and so did I :)

Our Family Dedication

After Noelle was born we wanted to do a dedication for our new baby girl.  But then we decided to do a family dedication instead.  This year my husband Chris accepted Jesus!  It has been such a blessing year already!  It was a special day for our family.  Was blessed for family and friends that came.  

 

Field Trips in September

Finally had a chance to edit photos from September!!  First trip was to our Rocky Mountain National Park!!!  I just love the fall colors.

Field Trip to our local town's community gardens.  It's FREE!  Kids love it.  They also have fun activities for the kids.  

Another field trip was to a Butterfly Pavilion which was so much fun.
