SIMPLIFY

It is a very rare thing for Brian to miss church, but today Brian was hit with a killer head cold so after sacrament I sent Sadie and him home. He is in bed asleep now where he will probably stay for the next two days. Poor guy! This is the very first picture I ever took with our little Nikon camera. I didn't even remember taking it, but when I sent my camera into the shop for repairs last week I took the memory card out and I guess the camera has a built in memory where this showed up. It looks spooky with the tree in the background. I like it.

Sadie and I put all of our Fall/Halloween decorations up this weekend and my house looks a little cluttered I think. Adding all the baby contraptions and decorations kinda does this to a home. So I have been thinking a lot about the word: SIMPLIFY and have tried to apply it to different areas of my life.


First on the list was my blog reader alerts. Back in my 8-5 working days I got pretty bored and was on the computer all day so I found a lot of blogs that helped me pass the time. Now that I stay at home and have more control over my time I have wiped out all of the random blogs and now just keep up with the lovely people that read this blog and a few other photography and crafty blogs.

The next area to simplify is going to be the basement. After seeing my neighbors immaculate basement I realized that for a couple that has been married less than five years we have accumulated a lot of stuff! So that is what I will be doing this next week in case any one cares. I will be cleaning out my basement, reading Breaking Dawn and taking care of a sick husband. wIsH Me LuCk!

When I looked at the picture of Brian I thought...man he looks like his parents. Then I saw the picture of Sadie and thought she looked a lot like you! Strong genes running around that place.

Good luck...you'll probably need it. I've got this great video that I'll send you about a "man cold." I think you'll appreciate it.
