New Favorites

My precious angel girls, just for the record, here are your "current favorites" before quiet time and bedtime:

Sullivan at age 4: Amelia Bedelia Books, The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein, and Paddington Bear.
Sawyer at age 22mos: Moo, Baa, La la la by Sandra Boynton and Blue Hat Green Hat also by Boynton, as well as Five Little Pumpkins and Bubbles Bubbles with Elmo.

THIS is summer

I am just now really coming to understand my Canon Powershot S95.  And in exploring its capabilities, I captured a few key moments during our "Camp Montgomery" over the last two weeks. These photos will hopefully bring alive the summer of 2012 for my girls one day. In the meantime, they certainly do for me.

Timeline

I have been thinking about timelines lately. Above is a Mac timeline and as a fan of many Apple products, it makes me smile and feel nostalgic, especially as I definitely had one of the first set of macs on the left in my kindergarten classroom and have used a majority of the machines in the list over the decades. Sigh...
It seems fitting to reflect on timelines as the fact looms that we are soon to leave Greenville on June 22...I find myself in this strange place in my own personal timeline: nostalgic, excited for a new adventure, exhausted for a new adventure, eager yet neutral, thrilled yet paused.  We are also so thankful to report that we have sold the house! What a massive blessing! We have a rental home in Jackson that is almost double the size of our current house, which will afford us huge luxuries that we do not have now, such as the girls each having their own bedroom and having space for visitors. All in all, I am so grateful for where we've been, where we are and where we are going...Who knows what's in store ahead!
