Show Me Embarassment

By
Well, maybe it makes me feel better that I can save others from the NC car laws. I don't know if that's a good thing or not ;)

I was going through my Kodak videos/pics and noticed how forgotten I had let some memories get. I have SO many clips on there. I've decided to post some. I am tempted to post the one of Mr Smith playing video games because his gamer face cracks me up, but I know it will be war after that. However, I am posting TWO of me that I think are ridiculous to counterbalance. It's funny watching yourself on film; it catches things you, unfortunately, don't get to see. I lick my lips a lot!

One of the MANY videos I made on my boring 3 day trip from Provo, UT to Surfside Beach, SC in the summer of 2010. I wanted to mess around with iMovie to see what that's all about. For some reason this .mov file wouldn't upload to iMovie. I used a free trial, which is why the company logo is shown there at the top.



This was also the video that brought me to meeting Mr Smith for the first time, oddly enough. You may remember that part of our story. I was dropping this video off for the other backup dancers the same night Mr Smith was picking up boxes to take back to UT for these same girls. We swapped names and the rest was history. I'll never be a backup singer again though. Don't cry. I don't even think Mr Smith has seen this.



Now here is a video of Mr Smith that he will hate me for. My favorite part (which is what I was previously getting footage of) is right when the camera zooms in.


Just for the record: We just purchased a Wii and Eric has hardly/hardly does play.
But this cracks me up every time.

To Live is to Change

I love change. I love variety. I love mixing things up just because I can. It's helpful, but it's kind of a double edged sword.  I'm terrible at consistency, even though Clifton Strengthfinder told me that was my #5 strength (I think they meant something closer to wanting things fair & equitable which isn't wrong). I not only move furniture in & out of my life, or make sure we don't eat the same thing too often... but I love that I can give my kids a flexible education. God knew this is something I would love & has allowed for it even when it comes with significant sacrifices (as many good things do). This has been a beautiful way to grow me over the last 4 years, and I definitely missed it, but I also started to doubt ever doing it again, which felt odd. I found myself questioning why I wanted to take the harder course. I had a little break with just E & M at home, but now B is back too, so I'm giving up some me time (I was never good at it any ...

Our Baby Story - Alexis

First day at home photo Dear Lexi,  We couldn't handle holding you inside my stomach for another minute. We made an appointment when the contractions never came. Things were changing, but you were still 7 days late. Maybe we were eager parents, but now that we have you in our arms, we understand why, really understand. You're amazing . By the time we showed up at your 6 AM hospital appointment to be induced, I was already 3.5 cm dilated & 90% effaced & having mild contractions. So mild I thought I might have had high pain tolerance because I didn't feel th...

There is a Plan for That

By
  Perhaps I'm ready to begin again, again. I struggle to add more words to the universe & I feel the same with photos. I let two of my passions die, both rather abruptly. My posts used to write themselves, I felt so guided in what God needed me to say. But this past year, my words have been removed. I moved from this blog over to Instagram as a better place to connect, but then everything became a distraction, and even the good distractions soon became too overwhelming. I can't possibly do every craft or recipe I've saved at this point. Unfortunately, I became painfully aware of my addictive attachment to my algorithm & lost much of my peace & productivity because of it. Satan knew, but I was too slow to recognize complacency & emptiness disguised as creative options & worldly debates. "The days are gone that you can be a quiet and comfortable Christian." I am definitely not raising quiet Christians, but perhaps we are still trying to be too co...
