A.B. Photography

Athen Bitner adopted our old point and shoot camera for his own.

I'm wondering if the love for photography is growing in his heart.

 I smile + laugh when I see the things that he is taking pictures of.

Preschool + Football

preschool + football a couple of favorite things in our home

this big boy started preschool, yes a couple weeks late due to our trip

but is super excited about going to preschool,  I mean school. He refuses to call it prescshool.

Mr. H joined a flag football league..

just to document, the only picture I snapped before both my babes fell asleep in my arms.

Mother to five

For the past two weeks I was a mother to five kiddos.

Mr. H's sister + husband were lucky enough to take a 2 week trip to China.

Portland bound I was for one eye opening experience.

4 girls, 1 boy (all under the age of seven)

Within those two weeks I discovered what I'm capable of, was reminded the importance of family, + was taught valuable lessons by these kiddos.
