This is our life {week 1}

I decided as one of my 2013 goals was to take out my big camera and take pictures of the girls and the everyday things that go on in our life.  I've been following Annie's blog Paint the moon  for a long time and when she came up with a 52 week challenge, all about Lifestyle photos, I knew I wanted to join.  I attempted last year to do her 52 week photo challenge but FAILED.  I would really like to grow as a photographer and thought this would be the perfect way to do it.

I think by doing this it will help me to take those pictures that I will cherish.

{Week 1 = Nightly Rituals}

One of our nightly rituals that I love is reading to the girls each night before they go to bed.  We all gather in the girls room.  I hold the baby while the girls sit on Kaylee's bed with daddy and listen to the book.  Once the book is over we give hugs and kisses and say good night.  I love that it gives us the opporunity to all be together.

I was also able to capture a few more nightly rituals that happen.

The girls visit with the dogs & watch their cartoons on the couch before bed together
