2nd Homework Assignment

This week I had to do blurry background pictures. I ended up using the purple flower picture to turn in for my assignment.

Photography class

I have started to take a photography class on Wednesday evenings and learn new things with my camera. The first homework assignment was take a picture of a bench that can tell a story....  Here are some of my photos. 

 This is the photo I ended up taking to class because I loved that someone put a flower pot next to the bench and that it meant it wasn't forgotten. 

24 weeks

Jackson and Mommy's typical week!

Just thought I would post about our daily week.  It is usually the same each week until we move into our house. We signed Jackson up to do some daily activities since he wouldn't be in preschool from Jan-March. He does start preschool April 1.
On Monday, Jackson loves to go to music class. I don't have any pictures to document but he sings and dances and plays with instruments. Then we usually go to the park and have lunch and then off to Costco. On Tuesday, Jackson has art class and then we go home for lunch. Jana and Jackson then leave to go to swim lessons and mommy has a free hour!!! On Wednesday, Jackson goes to sports and games and loves it! He gets to run around, learn about good sportsmanship and the rules for running bases, etc. Then we usually go the park and have lunch. On Thursday, Jackson loves going to daddy's school. We get up early and are at daddy's school in an hour in time for preschool. Mike's school has a preschool program once a week with the high schoolers.  Usually we are able to grab lunch with daddy and hang out after when daddy's classes permit.  On Friday, we go to the library for Friday Fun and read stories, make a project and dance.  Then we hang out in the wonderful children's area and play choo choo trains all afternoon.  So, that is our week :)

 I forgot to add, we have to do our hair before we leave the house, he loves to make it spike up in front. 

Hanging out at the park. 

Playing games at sports and games. 

Art class fun, Jackson doesn't like his picture taken, can you tell?

House Update!

We are very excited to say we have found our house!  It only took 5 weeks and 32 houses later for us to find it!  It is in a nice neighborhood where we can walk to a wonderful park.  Twin Brooks Park has a great play structure, ponds to feed the geese, and hiking trails. The house is a remodeled 1926 colonial  with lots of character. It was moved to its present location in the 1940s, has been completely renovated, and was just painted 6 months ago.  Score, we don't have to paint anything before moving in!!!! The owners are selling because it is an unexpected move up North so we are very happy.  Here are some pics. It is a 3 bedroom house but does have an extra bedroom downstairs for guests. So we are very excited!!! Can't wait to move in at the end of March!
