Yup. Still trying to get all of these precious pictures organized and blogged of my favorite people on our most favorite vacation ever. So here we go with Day 4. (In each post I’m including links to our Memory Maker photos where we have them – these links are really for me, as are the links to all our videos,… Read More
The start of our day at the Animal Kingdom looked a little like this. Not quite ready for it… but getting there. (Except Clementine. Just look at her. The girl is pretty much always ready.) It didn’t take us long to get there, though. Just a few steps past the Tree of Life in the Animal Kingdom and we ran… Read More
Our second day at Disney World was all about Epcot. And this is where we met up with once-online-but-now-real-life friend and photographer, Sennu Maria Keith, who came armed with a very big camera and an even bigger dose of joy and enthusiasm… Ready to take pictures of our humongous family for the entire day. Last October, Sennu had reached out… Read More
Not too long ago, we were blessed by the dreamiest gift. Like a make-your-dreams-come-true gift. A gift I don’t even think I could have dreamed up if given the chance. We were given – our entire family, y’all – a one-week trip to Disney World. A fellow-adoptive mama, as she was planning her own family’s trip to Disney World last… Read More
Oh my. Be forewarned, there are a ton of pictures below. It was our singular “vacation” of the year, if you want to call it a vacation. What it was was one wondrous day at the beach. And so, I took a lot of pictures. It was also Poppy’s first time to the beach. She wasn’t so sure how she… Read More
Oh my. Is it Saturday already? My kids were on spring break this week, so it’s been a little… ahem, busy around my house. Insane might be a better word. Plungers were used. Dog vomit was extracted. Band-aids were applied. Pretty much what you’d expect with a house this full. And some uncooperative weather. This year we opted not to… Read More
These are the last beach pictures of the season, I promise. I think. Really. Honestly, I did intend to post these a while ago. But I forgot. And, because they’re my kids and I love ’em, I don’t want to just leave these pictures to get all dusty in ‘draft’ status. Plus, seeing these pictures makes me smile. And makes… Read More
Yes. Life is great. So great, in fact, that the kids are busy adoring fawning over driving insane hanging out with their big sis. Making Lemon Squares. I’m not sure, does it get any better? So while they’re busy baking up a little slice o’ heaven, I’m organizing my pictures… ordering the ones I don’t have yet and just generally… Read More
My name is Stefanie. And I have a problem. I take way, way too many pictures. And then I don’t quite know what to do with all of them. I’ve now run out of photo albums. And I have stacks and stacks of pictures, waiting for a home. But when I see things like this lovely butterfly, or my ridiculously… Read More
I miss ’em so much already. We really did have a great time with my sister and her kiddos. Our kids are all so close in age… mine are (20 – but at summer school) 15, 11, 8, 6, 6, 4, 3 and 2. And hers are 14, 10, 7 and 4. So, between them all, they had no problem… Read More
