Day 61

First time ever making a pot pie!

Day 60

Day 59

Saturday in Semi-Finals Rob tossed this guy. The best part about it, this guy is a wrestler for Western State! (huge rivals)

Day 58

Rob wrestled in an "old man's tournament" Friday and Saturday. This is his pin on Friday!

Happy St. Patrick's Day~ 57

We were in our town parade, so much fun!

Day 56

So excited to be outside! There are still a couple feet of snow on the ground but that doesn't matter, the sun is shining so we are out!!!

Day 55

I walk in to check on Jack to see if he is sleeping and I find him reading :)

And this is the smile I get when he realizes he has been "caught".

Day 54

Last Sunday:

Our family went roller skating!

Day 53

I have to share these pictures from my FIRST newbie shoot. Thank you to a wonderful family that let me invade thier house for four hours! And, to a very patient 3 week old baby!

Day 51

Rylie being my model :) I got to use the backdrop stand that Rob built for me!

Moments like this....

I love being a mom! Sitting on their little kid table sharing snack out of the same bowl, nicely! This doesn't happen often, but I managed to capture it on camera!

Day 49

Rylie sledding in our front yard on March 3rd! Yes, there is still plenty of snow for her to sled down snow hills! Notice the 5 foot fence next door. Since we began snow in October our town has seen 10 feet of snow so far this winter. It is said that we aren't done yet either.

48

Have I mentioned yet, one of the many joys of teaching under myself :) Well, we get to go on weekly outings for PE. This week we found a tubing hill! A blast for us, about a half mile walk back up the hill to wear out the kids, and the poor dad helping us couldn't keep up with shoveling the slush off the top. But, it sure was fun!

Day 47

Rylie getting into her cave that Daddy built for her! She couldn't wait to show her friends! And, yes, she is in a dress, with tights, a sweater and snow boots.

Day-46

This was not posed! He crawled into the couch, set laptop up and started drinking his milk.

Day 45

Our kids sure do love routine! Tonight we weren't even ready to put kiddos to bed, but that didn't mean Jack wasn't ready for bed! He crawled right into our "reading chair" with his book and was waiting for us to read so he could go night night!

Day 44-Lonely Slide

This slide sits out all by itself in our yard. I could only imagine how peaceful to be sitting untouched and surrounded my mounds of snow!

Waiting for Daddy

Rylie got to stay up till 7:00 to wait for Daddy. As seen she didn't make it till 7:00 to see him, but she can't say that she didn't try!

Day 42

When I miss a day I don't skip numbers so this will go over a year but I am going to keep chugging :)

This past weekend I had the privledge to do my first maternity photos for my cousins girlfriend. Here is my favorite out of the bunch!

Day 41

Day 40

Day 39

These roses my brother gave to me when Rylie was born almost 5 years ago!

Day 38

A Fighter jet came into town today and it was probably the highlight of our month! I have never seen a jet up close and I learned a ton! It was pretty neat in the morning we were able to go and meet the pilot. He took the time to explain to the kiddos all about the jet, and even let them wear the flying vest and helmet!

That evening were able to stand out on the runway while he took off. AMAZING is all I really have to say about it!

Day 37

Class IceSkating Day! Another wonderful thing about teaching from home. When ahead on work and great weather, we get to adventure out for PE.

Day 36

Learning how to shoot and edit in RAW

Tortured the kiddos this morning for a photo shoot so I could have a play with editing. Basic editing today trying to get skin tone down.

Day 35

Before I begin I have taken pictures just not quality pictures that I wanted to waste time to edit and put on here... so I am still going strong :)

Tonight though I am on cloud nine! My lightscoop came in, I went to the mail at 9:30 pm and if you know me you know that I am scared to death to venture out to our mailbox at dark. But, I couldn't wait! So, these pictures were taken at 10:00pm completely dark rooms, so focus is off but let me show you what a lightscoop does to your photos! I am amazed!!!

With the flash and no lightscoop:

With flash and lightscoop... oh so wonderful!

Day 32

Its a new month! Grizzly was here last night with Denver and Denise so I was able to shoot something different. He wasn't real sure what I was doing especially when I was trying to get this close up. But he was a good model anyways, thanks Griz!

Day 31

I missed day 30 :(

Anyways went on my monthly grocery shopping trip Sunday. I was so proud of myself saved 31% of my grocery bill!

Day 29

Yeah I am up to date! Here is a diaper cover and a matching hat that I made. I am hoping it fits the newborn that is entering this world very soon!

Day 28

Jackson was very content with a yogurt drink. The drink went all down his shirt so once shirt came off the yogurt went all up his face. I couldn't resist the pictures!

Day 27

My poor baby boy is sick. Reason why I haven't been on to upload. Poor baby he doesn't even get a break from the camera when he is sick :(

Day 26

Jackson LOVES to get into my shower and play. I really don't understand it but I guess I don't need to. I just have to watch out for the trucks when I go to take a shower. :)

Day 25

This is a mommy brag moment! My Miss Rylie has been homeschooling this year with me and learning to read! She is 4 (5 in April) and is reading wonderfully! This is just a close up of her using her "reading finger." I am so proud of her!

Day 24

BA-NAA=na

I made a hanging cocoon yesterday. This was a test one with cheapo yarn just to get an idea of how I was going to make it once I used nice yarn. The hat I also made for a newborn shoot I have coming up!

Day 23

Easy Bake Oven! Oh my how I remember using my oven when I was a kid, and now I am cooking in the easy bake with my four year old! WOW!
