Life as a Lewis

Does anyone see a theme with the pigtails and brown coat? I promise they were all taken on different days! Let's hope for more variety next week. :)

1. Rory told me at lunch yesterday that "Spwite is clear and sizzles in my mouth." And, no, she wasn't having Sprite. 2. If you're a coffee lover and don't have a Moka Pot , you SO need one. 3. After spending 9 years with American Idol on Tuesday nights, I decided I was done. But then I gave in, watched last night, and I'm hooked again. 4. Brian read the story of Abraham and Isaac in Genesis 22 earlier this week when God asks Abraham to sacrifice Isaac, and he said to Camden, "just not sure I could do that, buddy." To which Camden immediately replied, "just not sure I could let you." 5. Hello, Snow Day #6 since January 3. Finally scrapping snow day pictures from last January. Wonder when I'll get around to this year's pictures. Gina Miller/Tracy Monette: Winter Splash

I have nothing, nothing, nothing for today so I pulled out a couple of pictures that didn't make the blog. Maybe inspiration will strike for tomorrow. :) October - the sass in this girl never ceases to surprise me December - an outtake from our Christmas card photo shoot November - "the look" could have a whole blog post of its own January - I stopped to snap this picture while the kids were running to a warm house after our little picture session last week.

Before Rory came home, I dreamed of a girly girl. After Rory came home, I dreamed of a girly girl. And now I have a girly girl who plays in the dirt. f2.8, ISO 500, 1/400 SS

This wasn't on the blog plan for this morning, but when Rory ran to me and said, "I have two bad things to tell you" I pulled out the video camera. I could tell by all the arm-waving and expression that it was going to be good. :) Only a 4 year old could make such a boring story sound exciting. Quote of the day: "The after part was the good thing."

Camden looks thrilled to be in this picture, doesn't he? 26. for the sound of Camden and Rory's happy screams as Brian pulls them around on the sled. 27. for another snow day 28. for a warm fire on a very cold day 29. for yet another snow day 30. that I don't have to worry about work or childcare when we have snow days (four of them. in a row.) 31. for grandparents that live close enough to occasionally watch the kids while I grocery shop 32. that Brian is able to take Camden for his 2nd flu shot 33. for library books that arrived just in time for snow days 34. for the stash of stickers, glue, and scissors that kept Camden and Rory happy for over an hour this morning 36. for the news Saturday I'd won 3rd place for a sweet photo of my girl's face 36. for a few hours alone with Brian 37. for new boots 38. for safe delivery of little Matthew 39. for sweet Destiny at church yesterday 40. for orientation today and now being "official"

Taking a cue from Christine and turning off comments so no one feels obligated to comment on these Project 365 posts each week. ;) After only finding 2 family pictures from last year, I've decided to take one each month (hopefully in a different spot) so the middle photo is January's family picture.
