{project life}















i am loving this project. you may remember that i was on board with project 365 {a picture a day} last year. i missed out on purchasing the 2009 kit. it sold out in a matter of minutes. i was able to get my hands on a 2010 kit. i am loving this simple way of documenting our lives. here are our a "picture a day" photos from the last week or so.

wednesdays are my days to help in the boys classrooms. i have had the chance to be the art docent for tanner & carter's classrooms this year. on this particular wednesday, i taught art to carter's class. this project was a fun one. the children pencil sketched a horse & then they traced it with elmer's glue. we let it dry & then they colored their horses in with pastel chalks. all of the projects turned out great...wonderful details and vibrant colors.

today was the first day of baseball practice. feeling a little overwhelmed. we are still playing basketball(3 out of the 4) & now we are on to baseball practices. tanner & carter are on the same team this year. they are excited to be playing together, again. i am so glad they have each other. they are good friends & i love that they are close in age. i am not sure how i am feeling about being on the yankees :-). this nor cal mama grew up watching /loving the giants.

i am taking about 20 minutes each week to put my photos into the album & to get my journaling down on the little cards. so far, so good. i am staying caught up. by years end, we will have an accurate glimpse of our 2010.
