Ten on the Tenth!

(on Tuesday!)

The idea is to take ten photos on the tenth of the month and share it, documenting a day of your life and the ordinary moments. There is beauty in the ordinary.

Here we go for the fourth month! Yay! So, come along on our journey of the ordinary day...

1. School days start a little early around here (too early if you ask me)! Lunch and snacks for school... this is actually one of my least favorite morning tasks and I love the one day a week Zoey buys her lunch. Something about the monotony of the task, I guess. Even if I vary the food... weird.



2. Here I am lacing up... BUT, I didn't actually go running today. Tuesday I go to spinning class, and just wear my running shoes.



3. I know I do a skype shot every time, but this will be the LAST time, so I had to do it again!! I am thankful that Ross can skype most days!



4. Picking the kids up from school.


5. We headed to the car wash after school to wash off some of that salty gunk and snow/dirt. Why, thank you Mr. M & M...


6. I couldn't decide between the next two shots. The warm sunlight streaming in was so wonderful (for warmth and light) that I wanted to capture it this way...



But his sweet face just needed a spot here too...


He often plays with whatever on the ground like this and I love it.

7. I haven't cooked much at all while Ross has been gone. Well, not how I used to anyway. We basically rotate a handful of meals and call it good. I keep it as simple as possible in terms of side dishes too... I basically cut up fruits and veggies. We had tacos tonight, and apples:)



8. Zoey does Tae Kwon Do one more day a week than Max, so tonight we dropped her off...


9. And headed to Kroger for a couple of things! My helper, who has to take books with him everywhere...



I love one on one time with them, and realized it is something that has been lacking while Ross has been gone.

10. And because I have done it before... check out the progress...



We still don't know when he will be home, but he has a date to leave his camp, so that is exciting!!

And while we were having our day... on the other side of the globe...

Someone was driving in this craziness...




And doing some work here...



not here, though...


I leave you with a little whisper of inspiration as well... I saw this earlier in the week and have been thinking about since...
