Looking back on...

...a week in our lives thanks to Ali Edwards "A Week in the Life" project (okay so it's only Monday-Saturday I haven't finished uploading Sunday's pic yet) but here a few (I shot about 60 a day) pics from our Monday-Saturday... I can not wait to finish putting the book together!
MONDAY
Time to wake up Braden-he never wants to get up for school
Out the door they go 7:20am
Flowers picked for Mommy on the walk home
Night time (and Mommy is finally getting her shower)
Braden tucked into bed with his beloved blanket & Buzz
Connor & Woody ready for a good nights sleep
TUESDAY
A trip to the dreaded PO to mail Lawren out
Fire truck running code "Is it fire fighter girl?" Wrong station boys
Yard work with Daddy
Gave that up to scooter around
Great Groupon deal for Ocean Breeze Water Park-bought 8 tickets : )
Park play at Locks Park with pals

Planting flowers
WEDNESDAY
Running out of school to the truck
Cast my daily vote for our park Fun Forest
7-11 to get gas
Soccer cancelled due to rain-IHOP for dinner
THURSDAY
Snuggle time with Mommy
Book fair at school
Braden & Daddy
Connor & Mommy
FRIDAY
Greenbrier Primary Panthers at the games
Waving to everyone during the opening ceremony
Running their little hearts out-poor Connor ran out of his shoe and took a nasty tumble
Tricycle race
Saturday
Reading their new books
Me-I was pretty good about including myself this week
Oh, Braden. I'm strapping Connor in to go to the store and Braden is being Braden outside the truck
Oops-stain stick accidentally fell in and went through a cycle-judging by Mike's (need to be replaced) socks-it doesn't make your clothes super clean by going along for the ride
Skinny mini's-this is why if they don't have adjustable waists we don't buy...LOL
Connor colored and narrated his own story book "Dinosaurs" by Connor A. Dumas

Recent crafting...

I have tried to squeeze in working on a few things recently. My main undertaking at least this week and into the coming week is embarking for the first time on Ali Edwards "Week in the Life" project-it is time consuming but I love it. I can not wait to see it completed. Sunday is my last "documenting day" so look for a post on favorite shots of the week next week while I work on putting together my album.
We had several Easter related events this year so I thought pulling them all together into a mini album for the boys would be a neat idea. Here is the cover-the inside is still a work in progress (I have tabled everything this week to concentrate on weekinthelife)
I saw these (hideous) bird canvases at the Dollar Tree so I painted them and used my Cricut to cut out the letters in our last name-it was cheap & cute!

I love our crazy life!
