A Gluten Free Hospital Stay

Posted in Family, and Photography

Project 365 – #116 In a few hours, we’ll be heading to the hospital for D’s back surgery.  Ironically, the main concern on my mind right now is making sure D’s hospital stay is gluten free.  (Maybe that’s because it’s something that I can focus my energy on right now?)  Getting glutened or contaminated at the hospital could slow down his recovery as he’ll already be weak from the surgery.  We’re going to keep stressing the gluten free thing as we go along and pray that the Lord will keep him gluten free during his entire stay.  I’ll be doing…

Modified Square Foot Garden

Posted in Family, Homemaking, and Photography

Project 365 – #111 Since we’re going to be home on a regular basis for the spring/summer this year, Munchkin and I decided that we would go ahead and plant a garden.  We knew that it would need to be a raised bed garden due to the soil conditions, so on Tuesday we headed over to Lowes to pick up some lumber, soil, and plants.  Once we arrived home, we started the project. On Wednesday morning, I decided to complete the project in the morning as I knew that we’d be headed to D’s pre-operation appointment in the afternoon.  We…

Growing Up so Fast

Posted in Family, and Photography

Project 365 – #108 With each birthday, my baby girl gets closer and closer to becoming a teenager.  One more year and she’ll be at that magical age.  For now, we’ll just enjoy spending each day with our precious little girl who is nearly as tall as me. lol!  (Goofy girl didn’t want to smile for the picture. Right after I took the picture, she started laughing…) On Saturday, we headed over to Phoenix for the Gluten Free Expo, so we decided to take advantage of being near some gluten-free restaurants and celebrated Munchkin’s birthday with some yummy gluten-free pizza…

Driving through Kofa

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #102 On Saturday, we headed over to Kofa National Wildlife Refuge.  We wanted to do a little exploring in some of the areas where we hadn’t gone previously.  We’re trying to fit in a few more fun family outings before D’s surgery right after Easter. We had fun taking pictures and just looking at all of the beautiful scenery. The gorgeous fluffy white clouds against the brilliant blue skies were breath-taking. We even saw some interesting clouds.  We thought this one looked like a funny face.  What do you think?

A Sunday Drive

Posted in Family, Outdoor Adventures, and Photography

Project 365 – #101 On Sunday afternoon, we decided to go out for a nice drive.  Our first destination plan was Martinez Lake as we had never headed over there.  Upon arrival, we decided that we would just keep on going to the Imperial National Wildlife Refuge instead.  We were a little disappointed that the visitor center wasn’t open.  (Apparently, it’s closed on the weekends after March 31st.)  The disappointment didn’t last long as we found a beautiful picnic area right by the water. The breeze coming off the water mixed with the warm air to create a pleasant environment…
