52 week project, week 5

Week 5: Busy/noise

Nothing can slow these 3 down on a snow day. Certainly not me with my camera asking them to look at me real quick!

Here is my second project 52 for the week. The theme for this one was noise (or lack of)

Throwback Thursday

Most of the time I just pick shots of Fuad and I pre-kids, or my babes when they were tiny. But every once in a while I will get personal and choose a shot from my childhood. And I have always loved this one. Partly because Dan and I look like a couple of rugrats. We still have clothes on, like we just creeped in or something. But also because my Nanny is there with us. and I love seeing moments like these!

 Rebecca got upset, so she drew us and put an X through the picture to let us all know how she felt...

52 week project, week 4

Week 4: Joy

I am trying to figure out my postings here again. For the last 2 years I have have started and finished two 52 week projects. This year I am trying to keep myself challenged and I am participating in two different ones at the same time. One seems to be a week off from the other, so I am not sure if I will just pick one that is my favorite to share, or both, or what.... 

In other news, Fuad and I went into hibernation mode during the Fall. So now that we are both a bit doughy compared to where we were we are back to our daily workouts. I am determined to get to 125. We will see if I make it by spring.

Week 3: Inside

It has been pretty rainy here lately. Alot of days it is either too cold, or too wet to goof around outside. So we have been in the house keeping warm, playing games and being silly!

A new 52, weeks 1 and 2

I have been trying to post pictures of the first 2 weeks on and off for a couple days now, and pictures will not load for me... so I am still working on the problem. Check back later. 

Week 1: Balance

Week 2: Reflective

It's a brand new year

Ok, here we are at the start. 2014. This year I have made a resolution to try and fit in working out as often as I can, but do not have a 'goal' since I often fail, or get distracted. And I dislike beating myself up at the end with everything I could not get accomplished. So my only other thing for this year is to work on my patience. I feel like I spend far to much time frustrated with the kids, or the house, etc.
In other news, the kids are happy to be back in school. They all seemed fed up with one another shortly after Christmas passed. I have started my next 52 week project, and am LOVING my new camera! Fuad has been working hard all through the holiday season, so we are looking forward to it calming down a bit so he can relax during the weekends again. Hope everyone is having a good start to a great year!

Happy New Year 2014

Another year come and gone. We had a great year in 2013 and can only look forward to what this year has in store for us. This year I will hit 30 so I plan to make this a great year indeed! We had a blast at my parents for NYE and the kids watched fireworks and enjoyed the grandparents disco ball and lots of noise makers!
