Project Life....
I love you Becky Higgins....
I want the turquoise album....
& so I wait....
patiently....
you can bet that I will not procrastinate one more second when I see those babies are back IN STOCK!!!
2011 seems like a perfect year for my family to document our life...everyday. We did this with Project 365 in 2009 - LOVED IT. Is the album completed? not quite...but the majority is & it will get done :)
So back to why 2011 is the perfect year....
It's a year of many happy times....and for sure, sad ones too....
My oldest turns 18 in a matter of days....
He is smack in the middle of making decisions that will affect the rest of his life....
What an exciting time....
But I'm telling you right now, that Momma is gonna be crying like a baby come August 2011....
tears of joy, tears of sadness....
and then what?
Things will be different....
Joel will be missing his big brother like crazy....
& that, for me, will be the hardest part.
So my goal with Project Life - Our Life * Milford 2011 is to capture the everyday...& the big stuff too! How about a peek at how things are looking so far:
Jan 1st (Saturday): Lots of photos from this day! My family waited to get together for Christmas this year over the New Years holiday...what a way to kick off 2011! So I have decided that my opening pages of my album will feature photos from this day :)
Here I am talking to my brother on ooVoo...this is a first for me. He is stationed in Africa & scheduled for leave at the end of January! Thank you for your service to our country!
Me again...giving some lovin's to the newest addition to our family! Little Miss Taelyn! What a doll, right!?! She was born with a heart defect, had surgery to fix her all up, and just recently went for a check up & is doing super-duper!
The cousins all camped out in front of Grandma's tree...patiently waiting to open gifts!
My brother, Craig aka Mountain Man...& his girlfriend, Karen! Cute couple, huh!?! Craig doesn't make it home very often, so it is always fun to have him around. & it was fun meeting Karen for the first time...hope we didn't scare her away! ha, ha!
Another great shot of the cousins...I just couldn't resist including this one!
Jan 2nd (Sunday): Celebrating Cousin Kambrey's 10th birthday! Love ya kiddo!
Jan 3rd (Monday): Joel got a pup this past summer...Cash aka THE BEAST is now 5 1/2 months old. Isn't he beautiful??? Bird dog in training for sure....
Jan. 4th (Tuesday): Grandma Kay and Grandma Sarah cheer on the boys at Bucklin. They are the best Grandmas!
Another photo I had to include...Joel's first game back since breaking his foot in November. Still hurts...
Jan. 5th (Wednesday): The life of a cat! I'm.SO.jealous. Who do they think they are anyway? That just happens to be my bed!
Jan. 7th (Friday): Jeremy vs. Rolla - takin' it to the hoop! Not the best photo...a little blurry...but I'm not going to sweat the small stuff. It is our life. (Did you notice no photo for Thursday? Again, not sweating the small stuff...)
Jan. 8th (Saturday): Took the boys out to eat @ Cruisers after church. We had a gift certificate that just had to be used! & no, Jeremy is not drinking a red beer. LOL!
Jan. 9th (Sunday): So with Jeremy on the verge of 18, Dad decided today was the day. Jeremy's so-called peach fuzz was out of control. LOVE that I got this photo...like father, like son. Jeremy was about to KILL me, but that didn't phase me a bit :)
And another shot from Sunday...added 3 more patches to Jeremy's letter jacket...lookin' good kiddo!
Well, there you have it...a glance @ how the Milford gang is living life in 2011. Week one is documented. Turquoise album or not...it will be mine...soon...very soon :)
For those of you that I haven't visited in a while...I'm sorry! I actually do pop in on occasion, but just haven't left you any LOVE! I have missed you all! There are no guarantees when my next post will show up...hopefully I can keep my Project Life updated....crossing my fingers!!!
Thanks for stopping by! Feel free to leave me a quick comment...I'd love to hear how you are doing!
Take care!
Stacy
