Have a safe Memorial Day weekend. See you bright and early Tuesday morning!
1. The Family Dinner: Great Ways to Connect with Your Kids, One Meal at a Time. I shared this awesome, awesome book in a September 2011 post (click HERE for details) but I thought it warranted a repost.
It’s that good.
2. Huffington Post Family Dinner Download. As you may have read before (HERE and HERE), I have strong feelings about family mealtime. Now that our boys are older, I have come to value this face-to-face time even more. I love hearing there thoughts on global issues, physics, history, and other meaty topics – as they get older, the topics become deeper and more diverse. But sometimes it’s difficult to get them started… that’s why the Huffington Post Family Dinner Download is so darn tootin’ cool!
Just read an article out loud and use the discussion questions provided to ponder over mealtime. LOVE IT!!!!
We whipped this quick little cake up in no time at all. And with whole wheat flour, it qualifies as breakfast in this household. 
Nothing quite hits the spot like “brinner” – especially during the summer months!
5. Meatless Monday. This website is full of ideas and recipes to help you elimate meat from your diet, one day a week.
Happy Friday!!!
Day 57/365 :: strawberry & blue cheese bruschetta
Day 58/365 :: rachel meatball poppers (these were SOOOOOO GOOOOOOD!)
Day 59/365 :: sorta like ‘where’s waldo?’
Day 60/365 :: tony’s birthday
Day 61/365 :: spyin’ on me
Day 62/365 :: birthday itinerary day
Day 63/365 :: reverse blessings
I’m still lagging a bit behind but should be back on track by the end of next week! (Click HERE to view the rest of the images in this series.)
If you have ever felt overwhelmed by life’s circumstances, this song is a beautiful reminder that you are not alone.
Here by Kari Jobe
Verse 1:
Come and rest here
Come and lay your burdens down
Come and rest here
There is refuge for you now
Pre Chorus:
You’ll find His peace
And know you’re not alone anymore
He is near
You’ll find His healing
You’re heart isn’t shattered anymore
He is here
Chorus:
Breathe in
Breathe out
You will
You will find Him here
Bridge:
I will rest in You
Outro:
You will find Him
You will find Him here
You will find Him
You will find Him here
I have been photographing this sweet child ever since she was an itty, bitty baby.
I have so enjoyed watching her grow over the years. This time, however, there was something noticeably different.
She has truly become a little girl. With preschool even looming around the corner!
There is so much I love about this age.
SO MUCH. Here are a few more from our time together:
They grow WAY too quickly. Thanks again, Heidi, for the fun morning!
