What is this?

This blog was inspired by a friend of mine. He has been journaling using photos that he takes daily and publishes to facebook. I am going to attempt to do something similar, but in the form of a blog. I am the wife of a wonderful, godly, fishing addict and a work-at-home mama of three beautiful boys and life, while it can be beautiful, can also be mundane, which can suck the joy out of everyday living. I have so much to be thankful for, and in beginning this blog, I'm hoping to regain my joy. I hope that this will cause me to seek beauty and pleasure in my everyday life. Today is 7-27-11, no significant date, but I hope, the beginning of something really special <3

A couple of parameters for this blog: I will attempt to sum up each day with 1 picture (A collage is okay!). I will keep my posts short and to the point and I will be taking all pictures with my iPhone 4. Enjoy!

Made some homemade beans for dinner. Had a busy day driving Si to school and then going to lunch at mom and dads. I got to stay at school for a bit and watch share time. So much fun. I've been worried that Si is not doing well in school because of his constant complaining that he doesn't want to go to school. He's doing great though, got his good progress report back yesterday and I have full confidence that each day at school is a good one for him. I'm wondering if he needs to get out of the house a little more, so some of our wonderful friends pulled some strings and we signed him up for tee ball today. I hope we can fit it in to our crazy schedule. We prayed about it and overall I felt pretty good. I'm hoping it's just what he needs.

Polished the rest of this wonderful drink of today. It's delicious. Had meetings this evening and a really busy workday today. Trying to play catchup from the holiday on Monday and the PFT test that I proctored yesterday. Not fun.

Ventured out on my own this evening in my neighborhood. A little sketchy in parts, but overall a nice run. Got this handy app to log my workouts. Want to see this list grow! Printed out a training schedule from the Ragnar website and it's great. I don't feel so lost in my training anymore. I know where I'm going!

Posted this today. It's an old picture, but so funny. Harp in a nutshell. I am seeing his creativity more and more everyday. He loves food, drawing and painting, music and pretending. What an amazing kid he is. I am so enjoying 'figuring him out'. Daddy and I ran seven miles together today. Then we had a leadership meeting in the evening. Good day.

Posted this on Insta today. What a face. Church, then family get together at mom and dad Hernandez's house. I was beat and couldn't wait to get into my bed.

Zoo day. Got zoo passes to the San Diego Zoo today. Kind of a nightmare getting there, but once we were there, we threw the boys in the wagon and had some fun. Saw some beautiful animals. Love these family days.

Worked this morning, then had some good outside time with the boys. We had someone out to look at our heating/ac units. He fixed them up and now they're working a lot better. Practiced catching the ball with Silas. He's getting there!
