Project Sunday {June}

The year is more than halfway over and so is my 2015 photo project. I set a goal to take a picture of my girls every Sunday. Has it been challenging? Of course it has! But some how I am still at it and my only regret is that I didn't start taking weekly photos sooner.

Let's take a look back at the first five months. 



Now onto our June photos.


I just love summer, especially as a girl mom. Sandals and sundresses are simply the best. The vibrant summer colors are pretty fantastic too.



Marissa's dress was a birthday present and it quickly became a new favorite. It is the perfect combination of Elsa meets Cinderella with sparkles. What little girl doesn't love to sparkle?



Fathers Day weekend. Why I didn't think to throw dad into this weeks photos is beyond me. We had just got home from vacation late the night before so we stayed home from church and spoiled Dad.



Emily was positive that she was Minnie Mouse this week. She even rocked some Minnie Mouse earrings. That girls obsession is still going strong for 3 years now. I never imagined a "phase" lasting this long. The girls also wore some bracelets that Marissa made them. She is quite the crafter. 


Yup, this photo project might have been the best idea ever.
After all what mom say "I wish I didn't take that picture."
I'll give you a hint I am pretty sure it must be NONE :). 

Happy Monday friends!

Currently {June 2015}


Making //  I recently made Emily a Canopy hoop for her bed. She loves sleeping in her "princess bed" now. It was so easy and so affordable I can't wait to show it to you in a little DIY post soon!

Reading//  We have been spending a lot of time reading and are busy working on a summer reading challenge with some of our favorite blogging friends

Sweet Turtle Soup: Summer Reading Challenge - Announcement!
Make sure you check out the details, grab your books & link up with these awesome ladies.

Wishing //  That summer could last forever.

Listening to//  I took the girls to see Annie the other day at the Summer Movie Express. Every day since then I have had endless requests to watch and listen to Annie songs on YouTube.

Learning //  To be more comfortable in the gym. I recently started a work out routine that has me doing a lot less cardio and a lot more weights, free weights at that. This was definitely a big stretch away from where I feel comfortable but it has been so good for me. Women belong in the weight room too! 

Wearing //  My swimsuits! We have been getting in more than our fair share of pool time lately. I did say we were going to live a the pool this summer. 


Enjoying //  Cheap electric bills! For the first time since we have been married we made it until early June before we turned our air conditioner on. I am not saying we haven't had our fair share of warm days but we just weren't willing to give in until the house hit 80 degrees one evening. 

Looking Forward To //  Vacation!!! Well I guess it's just a little trip. But it's a few days out of town away with the family and I am excited!!!

Wanting //  My kids to slow down. Marissa is getting ready to turn 7! How did 7 get here so fast? 


Eating //  Massive amounts of protein. Well, I don't know if I can really claim massive. But eating 30% of my calories in protein has definitely been quite the challenge and eating eggs/egg whites for breakfast everyday is less than enjoyable.

Planning //  The next school year. I have been HARD at work on lesson plans for the 2015/2016 school year. I think I just might be able to get the finished or really close to finished by the end of the month.

Praying //  For others. Praying for the lost to be found, the broken to be healed and the struggling to find grace.

We have been having lots of sister sleepovers lately :).

Missing //  As much as I love summer a teensy weensy part of me misses having a daily set in stone routine. I mostly just like knowing what day of the week it is and lately, I couldn't tell you.

What have you been up to currently?
