Isaiah Hudson ~ 10 Months

My little nephew-man just keeps on growing!


He's wonderfully photogenic. :)


He's mastered walking, and enjoys exploring! 


This little boy has the most beautiful eyelashes you've ever seen...



... and I love him very much.

Happy 10 Months, Little Man.

#throwbackthursday

Hi everyone!

So I never blogged these pictures! I thought it would be fun to do a "Throwback Thursday" post just for them. :)

Every year, our church hosts a banquet for its anniversary, and we invite a guest pastor to speak at the banquet, and preach the Sunday following. Last year, Mr Lee McKinnon was our guest. Our Pastor Tim likes to take our guest speakers to see a little bit of Texas while they're here, and last year, I filled the extra seat in the car on their trek to Austin for the day. We visited the State Capitol and the Bullock Museum. 

It was such a fun day!


The grounds surrounding the Capitol are scattered with statues and historical markers.



We found this super-cool antique drinking fountain. Note the pedal :) 


The capitol dome is larger-than-life, and beautifully designed.


The inside is just as stunning.


Mr David Crockett holds a prominent place in the foyer of the Capitol.


We got to see inside the State House chamber!




There were so many opportunities for detail shots!


There are staircases like this inside, connecting all the floors.


Even the hinges are decked out in Texas Capitol style.



Hope you enjoyed your trip to the Capitol! :)

Odds & Ends ~ February


Hi everyone!

I have been feeling like I have nothing to blog about lately. But I have realized that the pictures that are just capturing life for me might make you smile... so, here's a mélange of photos from recent weeks!

First up: White chocolate raspberry milkshakes (with giant straws) and Greek Burgers on Gluten-Free buns... at HopDoddy in Austin. So. Amazingly. Delicious. Please try it if you're in the neighborhood!


Isaiah just keeps on growing. He started walking at 7 1/2 months!!! He keeps getting more adorable each time I see him :) Daddy LOVES reading to him...


He discovered a fondness for my purse. He spent about half an hour dragging it around & tripping over it :)

He also loves his chihuahua 'brother', Chico. They enjoy playing together!


The two boys I nanny continue to grow up as well! 

Mr Uriah (below) is mastering walking with assistance and exploring...


Ezra enjoys reading books and playing with cars & trains.


I'm also enjoying riding at my barn... horses are waaay too much fun to photograph!

Don Diego (left) & Flash (right)...


... and the adorable Cinnamon the pony!


"Hi, everybody!"

Praise Him With Stringed Instruments




The Lord will save me,
    and we will play my music on stringed instruments
all the days of our lives,
    at the house of the Lord.

Christmas

Here's a snippet of our Christmas!

All of these pictures were captured using one of my Christmas presents: an autofocus 50mm lens! (Thank you, Grandma K!)

It's not Christmas without The Polar Express...


...and lots of cups of coffee in your adorable initial mug (thank you, A family!)


Driving around town looking at lights is a must. Our courthouse (below) was literally draped with them. 

It was gorgeous.


Lots of nephew time... Isaiah LOVES the piano, and he can reach the keys now!


... opening gifts (and playing peek-a-boo with the tissue paper!)


... beautiful music.


A yummy Christmas dinner, complete with Christmas tree napkins! Watch how to fold them here.




Nana and grandboy snuggles...


And a farewell picture with Grandma...


After Grandma flew home, we had Christmas with my Grammy & Pop-Pop!



How was your Christmas? I hope it was wonderful and filled with those you love :)

See you next week!
