If we live good lives, the times are also good. As we are, such are the times. ~ Saint Augustine of Hippo

I love this girl! She just turned four years old last week and, thank heavens, she will still take naps! Most of the time she will fall asleep, but sometimes I find her playing quietly. The rule is she has to stay in her room and take a “rest.” I usually get her out when it’s time to pick up Autumn from school.
On this particular day, this is what I find when I go in to wake her up. Some days she make me want to tear my hair out, other times she can be so super sweet I can barely stand it!


This is my sweet shot for the week. Check out others at Sweet Shot Tuesday!

(These are for my other 365 project… yes, I’m insane and I’m doing TWO Project 365′s! One is for my photography and the other is just for my girls and their daily lives. These are for my girls’ project today… day 50! I’ve actually made it 50 days without missing any pictures! I love to look back and remember the little tidbits of their lives!)
So, Autumn brings me a pair of pajama bottoms this morning and tells tells me to cut off the legs because they have holes in the knees. I cut them off and tell her to throw the scraps away. She pauses for a minute, then tells me she wants to make a dress for her Calm-Down Bear! So I cut some holes in the sides for sleeves and put the scrap on her care bear. She then tells me to make one for Summer’s Calm-Down Bear too! So the two Calm-Down Bears have matching dresses! Aren’t they so cute! So, do you want me to make you a dress now? I’m available…


On both photos, I used my newly released Photo Veils from the Simplicity Collection! They are so fast and easy to use! I whipped these two photos out in less than a minute! Check them out… you will love them!!


Isn’t this the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? They found Autumn’s light desk and used it for a light to read books at bedtime! Summer is “reading” the story to Autumn.

This is what I get when I try to take a picture of Summer! Nearly every. single. time.
She was pretty mad at me today when I was caught taking pictures of her!
