Welcome Jane!!

Our family members have seen these pictures, 

but I'd like to share with the rest of you 

some of my favorites from Jane's first month.

40 Days of Gratitude

This year for the Lenten season, I decided not to sacrifice anything, but would, instead, be purposeful about capturing moments of praise and gratitude with my camera. 

The last few posts have been a part of that.

 Yes, many, many of the pictures are of my family - 

they are indeed my priority and each one dear to my heart.

I see beauty all around me everyday and often pause to thank God for these blessings.

In reality, this entire photo blog is an 

expression of my thankful heart!

Fun to look at, fun to eat!
