A Week In The Life

I had the photos of my A Week In The Life project taken last week before I had to leave town, but I didn't have time to get them posted.  Although this is a ton of pictures, it is still such a small glimpse into all that we do... there are some things that I just forgot to photograph, some things that are too mundane to photograph (Yall know what laundry looks like, right?), and some things that you just don't want to see.  :)  

For what it's worth...

here is a week in the life of our family.

On this day, the boys spent hours outside playing in the water... making water balloons, digging in the muddy flower beds, burying their feet, and making tunnels and holes in the mud.  If you're going to live in Texas, you might as well make the most of hot October days.

At some point, almost every day, we hear guitar music.  

Corey & Jack both take lessons, and I love hearing them practice.  

We have even all started singing along to a few songs most evenings.

Allie spends much of her free time in her room playing with her camera.  She just discovered that this is the outcome if she puts her hand over the flash as she takes a picture...  

She is so creative!

Many mornings, Corey & I sit outside and drink coffee. 

We've had some cool mornings lately, and those are our favorite.  

(By the way, I love this cup!)

I love this about homeschooling... when it is pretty outside, we like to do school work on the table in the backyard...

...and sometimes we do school on the couch.

(Yes, that is Cooper's favorite outfit.)

~ snack time ~

On this morning, it was too cool and wonderful to be inside.  

The boys bundled up and played outside until it warmed up then we did school.

(I love this picture of my boys!)
