Just a peek at this week’s
favorite things
you know, the little moments of joy
sprinkled within the busy days
of being a mom
in the midst of life
landscape timbers
that are excellent for jumping
on those warm days in early April
when you dump out your ice cubes
from your water
and you just want to jump
a brother to rest on
how can you not love this picture
of Samuel
taking a quick rest on his brother Elijah’s shoulder?
so sweet for their momma’s heart
trucks
to line up
that Grandma pulls out for
little boys to play with on Sunday when they visit
Easter centerpieces
made by my amazing sister
Becky
Becky
for their church
and then brought to my parents
for us to enjoy
while we gathered around the table
my attempts at a new profile pic
I’ve had the black and white one for so long
{and it’s on all my business cards}
so I’m trying to get a new one
but I just can’t stay serious or smile
without getting silly
ha!
blowing candles
we celebrated Grace Eva’s birthday
on Easter Sunday
I love love love these pictures
watch Samuel behind Grace
his expression is priceless
tulips
those are my mothers
{of course}
mine are not nearly that tall
and they haven’t even opened
{yet}
so grateful to garden in the spring
so grateful to garden in the spring
and
blowing bubbles
how can these shots of Caleb be any sweeter
such a favorite thing
a favorite moment
from this week.
Love.
Love.

I’m glad I’m not the only one with a profile picture taking problem. All mine turn out either goofy or weird. Or my head gets cut off. I happen to think the one you got is cute though!
I just started following your blog! Your pictures are beautiful! I love the candle pictures! What a wonderful list of favorite things!
These are lovely pictures! The tulips are so gorgeous and I love the bubble blowing. 🙂

What a lovely post. I love the pics you included with your favorite things.
LOVE the centerpieces – saw them on pinterest and fully intended to make them. And then reality hit, and I knew there was no point in trying 🙂
