POD: Violet’s Sheep

From Picture of the Day 2013

After struggling to find a picture last night I had hopped to capture a moment with the kids to-night to use for my POD. When I left this morning for work, it was worm and bright I envisioned an after dinner trip to the park.  Of course that was dashed with this evenings rain. So I came home and spent time with the kids, and before I knew it they were snug in their beds and I found myself sitting here without a picture. So I pulled out Violet’s Pre-School Art bag and found this sheep that she made.

POD: Melissa’s Race Day

From Picture of the Day 2013

Today Melissa had her first run. It’s the same run I did for my first run, the Harry Rosen Spring Run-Off. She did amazing. I’m so proud of the journey she’s been on over the last few years. She is such an inspiration for me. I have to admit it was strange standing at the finish line and not crossing it. It makes me think I really have to get back out there and run.

POD: Picnik with Nan

From Picture of the Day 2013

Today is Violet’s long day, with Pre-School, then Kindergarten enrichment followed by skating.  It’s a long day, so I’m glad that she got to have a fun picnic lunch with her Nan.  When I heard they were going to be having a picnic I asked my mom to take some pictures. I chose today’s Picture of the Day from the pictures she took.

POD: Afternoon Lego

From Picture of the Day 2013

Today the ladies headed out with Nana to find some shoes for Violet, leaving Jacob and me home looking for ways to entertain ourselves. So out came the Lego and we went to work finishing up his Bat Cave set. It’s really fun sitting there with Jacob building Lego, though I think we should get some brick sets that allow building using our imagination, the sets are cool, but it would be fun to sit down and just build what ever came to our mind.  Perhaps for his birthday I’ll look for a 1000 piece Lego set.

POD: Easter Morning 2013

From Picture of the Day 2013

Looking back on the last few Easters I seem to use a picture of the kids dressed up for church for my picture of the day, well at least I did last year. So I guess I’ll make it a tradition. Each year I’ll get a picture of the kids as we get ready to head out to church. Of course I took a much more pictures, of the Egg hunt, their baskets and even our afternoon at Nana’s house. But for today I’ll post just this picture and if I get a chance in the coming day I’ll share some more pictures from Easter.
