Daily Dozen Photo Challenge

I am joining in with Liz and her challenge to take 12 photos on the 12th!


On the 12th, our family was driving home from a quick weekend getaway to the lake. So our 12 pictures came from an adorable little park off the main highway. I bribed my kids with a trip to Ihop if they cooperated with my impromptu photoshoot. (Notice their happy smiles. Who can resist pancakes! LOL)


I took some with the Nikon and some with my best friend, iPhone. Hope you enjoy!

Wordless Wednesday: Compassion

The Teen Years

The teen years are WONDERFUL for exploring all your interests, and passions. A time to try on different personas, finding your voice and ever-changing personal style. It is also a time to think of what you want to do for the rest of your life.

Or NOT do for the rest of your life. This is my baby Alyssa's project from fashion design class. Uh.....you should stick with other career paths sweetheart.

Mommy loves you.
