Project 52: Week 13 ~ Details

 

Details is the theme for Week 13.

And I'm wondering what would be more appropriate than posting the lovely

{eye roll}

scene before me each day. 

We're on our way to breaking a record for rainfall this month. 

And that's saying a lot since this is the third straight year of obscene amounts of rainfall.



I'm sooooooo ready for Summer.

Project 52: Week 12 ~ Hunger

This week's theme is Hunger. 

As in, The Hunger Games.

Oh how I loved the book. 

Loved.

And I'm so anxious to see the movie {which is out TODAY!}

I also love jewelry.  So I combined the two:

In other, non-related {but equally wonderful and exciting} news:

It's Jeremy's and my anniversary today!

10 years, people.

Project 52: Week 11 ~ The "Eyes" of March

Week 11:  They Eyes of March



I could stare into this little pumpkin's eyes all day long!

Project 52: Week 10 ~ Be Still

Week 10:  Be Still

Any time I hear the words "be still", I am reminded of one of my favorite scriptures:

Be still, and know that I am God . . .  Psalm 46:10

Mostly I am reminded of how seldom I am still.

Anyway.  Week 10.  A snap of my girl in His word.  Nothing sweeter to a Mama than that!

Project 52: Week 9 ~ A Great Leap

How come I'm such a procrastinator??!  Always waitin' till the last second
Anyway . . . Week 9: A Great Leap.
My oldest daughter, Sierra, loves to dance.  No, wait.  She ♥  LOVES ♥ to dance.  She's always dancing around the house, in the grocery store aisles, outside.  So, it didn't take too much convincing to get her to do some leaping for me :)

Look at those lovely leaps! :)

Head on over to Darcy's to link up your weekly photo

Project 52: Week 8 ~ Cabin Fever

This week's Project 52 Theme:  Cabin Fever.

Oh boy.  Do I know all about that. 
The Pacific Northwest is pretty much known for our obscene amounts of rainfall. 
We are often cooped up inside for months on end :( 

What do we do with all of the . . . inside time?

Crafts, puzzles, games.  You name it!

Come on!  Join in . . . I dare ya! :)

Project 52: Week 7 ~ TRUE LOVE

Okay.  We just got back from vacation last night, so I am completely unorganized {think piles of laundry flowing out of the laundry room, suitcases strewn about}.  I had the best intentions of putting a lot of thought into this week's theme: True Love.  But, did I mention we were on vacation?  Yeah.  All coherent thoughts go out the window, and I just focus on VACAY!!! WOOHOOO!

Nonetheless . . .
This is true love to me:

Nearly 10 years of marriage, four babies, three houses, and about 435 million memories.  And I can honestly, honestly say that I love this man more now than ever before. {Siiiiiiggghhhhhhh}.

Project 52: Week 6 ~ Drink Up!

Well, I'm just going to tell you right now, that my photos for Project 52 keep getting worse :( 
Be warned.

In my defense, though . . . well, actually, I don't have a defense.  We're just really busy here getting ready for vacay {yay!}, homeschooling, errands, and life's basics. 

Side story:

We were visiting friends last week, and got into this very discussion {about things being crazy busy right now}, and I worked up the nerve to ask if it was just me or if  the 6-12 month stage is a little . . . exhausting for anyone else.  Now.  Do not get me wrong.  I LOVE this age.  I do.  But Tay is going through a bit of a trying time right now.  She's not real content.  I truly believe that she sees her big sissies running around, playing, having fun, and wants so badly to join them.  Add to that the fact that on the very rare instances that I can set her down for a few minutes, she's into EVERYTHING.  Miss Priss can army crawl like nobody's business.  And her index-thumb dexterity is seriously amazing.  She can spot little Barbie shoes and hair clips from a mile away, scoot her little booty over to them, and grab 'em up, pop 'em in her mouth, all in about 1.3 seconds.  You gotta watch this one like a hawk, I tell ya.  So by the end of the day . . . well, I'm completely worn out.

Wow.  Long side story.  All that to say ~ not a lot of time to pick up the camera for anything more than a snap these days ;)

Here we go . . .

Week 6 ~ Drink On Up, Y'all!

Yesterday we did a little grocery shopping, and thought we deserved a little treat.

Vanilla Beans from Starbucks . . .



They don't last long around here.

Project 52: Week 5 ~ Shadows

I REALLY procrastinated this week. 
I had every intention of putting a lot of effort into it, but alas, our week was busy, I was tired, and picking up my camera just wasn't at the tippy top of my priority list.

But today . . .
We had SUNSHINE! 
Hooray for sunshine. 
We get so very little of it in the Pacific Northwest. 
We headed outside and there were shadows galore.

Big Sunshiney hugs to all of ya!

Project 52: Week 4 ~ Self Portrait

I'm so not about self-portraits around here. 

I really rather prefer to be behind the camera.

But, since I don't make the Project 52 rules . . . .

Here we go: Self Portrait

We took a little spur-of-the-moment drive through the country this week.  Stopping at one of Jeremy's favorite fishing spots to drop a line in.  Sierra and Makenna joined him.  Kameryn, Taylor and I mostly hung out in the car. {In my defense ~ It was cold!  And Kam was sleeping most of the time.}

It is SO nice to just BE together as a family.  I do not take a moment of it for granted anymore.  After nearly a year of house building, rarely getting out to do anything together as a family, I cherish these moments.

Please. 
Join in. 
It's just one photo a week for the year.  You can do it! :)

Project 52: Week 3 ~ I Dreamed A Dream

So . . . pretty sure this isn't what most would interpret for Week 3, but hear me out . . .



This little princess is, no doubt, dreaming sweet baby dreams. 
And my dream for her? 
Health, happiness, and fully knowing God's love.

Linking up for 52 weeks of photography themes and challenges from Darcy at My 3 Boybarians.

Project 52 : Week 2 ~ Made With Love

Okay, okay.  I'm a little late.  But I'm here.
 I can't drop the ball on my Project 52 in the second week, right?  That would just be embarrassing. 
So.  Week Two's Theme:  Made With Love ♥

I'm working on Miss Kam's birthday invitations right now:

This theme was a little thrown together {like a half hour ago}. 
It has been a LONG, crazy week here at the Fraijo house. 
And it's been kind of hard to focus on much since we heard the news that Sierra's best friend is in the hospital right now undergoing surgery due to a nasty sinus infection that just won't break its hold. 
Poor little Sweetie is fighting like a champ. 
If you'd like to pray for her full and quick recovery {and maybe some peace and rest for Mom and Dad}, that would be so, so wonderful.

Okay.  Over and out.

Project 52: Week 1

For the last couple of years I've watched while others have participated in a 365, and I've wished I would have done my own.  But then, life is a little crazy right now, and I wonder if I would truly follow through each and every day.

The solution?  A Project 52. 

I can do that!

This week's theme is, Resolution:
