Wordful Wednesday - Fall Fun

On Saturday afternoon we went to the Great Pumpkin Farm with friends.  I can not get over how much they have all changed in one year....(the shot below was taken last October)

You Capture - Faces

While we were at the Cross Country meet on Saturday, I captured these shots of my nephew.  He is at the age where he HATES having his picture taken.  Lucky for him I LOVE to take pictures.  ;P

PS...where did time go?  When I started dating Jeff 15yrs ago, this one was a few months old....

Go on over to I Should Be Folding Laundry to see other You Capture's for this week.

Wordful Wednesday - Cross Country

I was so proud of Ian on Saturday. 

He took part in a Cross Country Event for grades 4-6.  They broke them up by grade.  The girls & boys raced separately.  Each school in our district had teams. The 4th grades ran 1/2 mile and the 5th & 6th raced 3/4 of a mile.

{Lily sat on Jeff's shoulders so she could see Ian run.  All the while chanting GO IAN GO!}

While he didn't come in first, I am SOOOO proud that he wanted to do it and completed the 1/2 mile.

(my nephew is in 5th grade and ran also... 3/4 of a mile is a long way)

I am proud of both of them!

Take Me Back Tuesday & Flashback Friday

August 1984
10yrs old

Growing up my parent's had a huge garden in our backyard behind the garage.  One day my father let me use his lawnmower....

This was the first and only time I have mowed the lawn in my whole life.  I am pretty sure it was for a photo op and then he took the lawnmower back and finished mowing.  My father really enjoyed mowing the lawn.

Love you dad!
