Snapshots of Life

My Scrapbook Albums

My Scrapbook Albums

When my latest layouts arrived in the mail last week, I thought I’d share a look at my scrapbook albums. It’s always fun to see your work in print.  I look forward to getting my new layouts and stalk the post man every time I place an order.  For years, I didn’t get my layouts printed.  When I first started scrapbooking, it wasn’t as easy or as cheap to get your layouts printed- at least full size 12 by 12 or 8.5 by...

It’s Deer Season

It’s Deer Season

Well, it’s bow season at least.  Cody’s hunted one morning for the past two weekends.  He’s kinda hoping that he see’s this guy. 0 But of course, you can’t eat the horns.  Of course, for Cody. . . the socialite that he is. . . it means a chance to talk and hang out with every one on the lease. And more of me waiting on him to quit talking. . . and talking. . .   So we can get some work done.  We added a...

Reflective Snapshots and Reflective Scrapbooking are now Ordinary Details

So, I’ve been working to merge things together and thinking about some things I’d like to do in the future.  Add to that some thoughts I’ve had about life today and you get: Ordinary Details!  Reflective Snapshots and Reflective Scrapbooking will now be combined as Ordinary Details.   Being online for me has always been about sharing personal expression.  I’ve seen several phases in my sharing and I think the overall...

A Week in the Life 2011

A Week in the Life 2011

Late last month, I participated in documenting a week in my life. We were super busy finalizing a month and a half long project.  For me, that meant keeping it really simple.  I really love this project.  I loved seeing the differences from last year to this year.  I love getting to capture small tidbits that otherwise seem to get lost- like my love hate relationship with watching the X-games.  What can I say, I just love simply capturing...

Mad Cow Disease? Not Enough Beef?

Mad Cow Disease? Not Enough Beef?

The view outside my office window has recently changed. Sadly they cut down the really large tree that was so beautiful earlier this month after it was struck by lightening several months back. Tuesday morning around 7 AM, I saw a loose cow out in the field and had to share my experience with Cody via text. There wasn’t anyone around to share my view outside my window with. Me: LOL! I looked out the window and thought the big tree’s...

Flashback Friday: New Orleans

Flashback Friday: New Orleans

Here’s some more shots from 2004- this one is from November.  I happened upon this look for these shots and kinda liked it. Dad used to go to New Orleans for work on a regular basis.  At first he brought home Beignet from Cafe Du Monde, and as time went on, he began bringing home the mix (which you can now buy in the stores).  We’d go to Florida on a regular basis to see family which meant we drove near New Orleans. . .. Mom,...

About Me

Welcome! Hi all! I live in rural East Texas with my husband. I'm passionate about telling our everyday and rather ordinary story through words and pictures here on my blog and on my digitally scrapbooked pages. Geek. Creative. Problem Solver. Traditional. Introverted. Those are all words that you might use to describe me. I love to have fun while stilling keeping it calm and simple.

My thoughts

I'm a huge believer in giving kids a camera. One, they can learn your frustration- when you don't want your picture taken. But more so because you can see the world through their eyes.

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26
