It has been a long arduous week. Jarvis fell and smashed his face on the
concrete. Tamika moved out of home. Jarvis had to have surgery to repair the
damage from his fall. There were other visits to specialist doctors. Justin got
word that he is going to Cambodia to photograph
something amazing (more on this later). We found out the house we rent is being sold, so we have to move. Plus I became one of those, yes a
Mother-In-Law. (well sort of)
Tamika and Guy have been together for over two and half years. Now that
they have moved in together I thought it fitting to include Guy in this week’s
Family Portrait. Look at Jarvis emulating Guy with the remote and acting like
one of the ‘big’ boys.
Jodi over at Che
and Fidel has inspired me to pick up my camera and
turn the focus inward. Since I already take 100s of photos of my children each
week, so I thought I would twist the idea a little. What I never seem to get is
group shots, images of the family together, whether it is my two children,
Tamika and Jarvis, or me with the kids, or shots of Justin and I. So I am going
to challenge myself to get one image of "my family" per
week.
I hope that you all are enjoying a quiet weekend after your busy week!
ReplyDeleteAnd congrats on the MIL status!
Unfortunately a quiet week-end is not going to happen. Justin has to work tomorrow (he works every Saturday) and Monday we have Jarvis swimming lesson and I have to have a scan. The weekend after? Lets hope...
DeleteWell that's a bit of a full on week isn't it? I hope Jarvis is feeling better. I guess you might like a slighter quieter week ahead? X
ReplyDeleteQuiet and doctor free..
DeleteThat a lot at once! I know it's overwhelming but just remain calm and go with the flow.
ReplyDeleteBoys and their damn video games! I'm sure he's a nice guy ;). I love Jarvis and Tamika in these photos <3
I love Tamika's grumpy face in the middle image. Not happy she is waiting on the boys to finish their game.
DeleteLMAO! I don't blame her, it irritates me to no end too.
DeletePoor Tamika has a partner who is a big kid and loves his games. Poor Guy, Tamika is not at all a patient partner.
Deleteoh boy hon...what a week!!! sending hugs firstly on my catch up with you after my long absence and praying for a better week! Surgery! YIKES!!! hugs hugs and more hugs.....love that 'boys' portrait!x
ReplyDeleteIt was a full on week. I love how the 'boys' are sitting the same with the same concentration on their faces.
DeleteHi Julie, just wanted to say thanks so much for picking me to be the other winner in Bella's giveaway. Hope your week is a good one. Elaina xo
ReplyDeleteThat's okay, thought you would enjoy it.
DeleteLove that top shot ... Jarvis is certainly being a big boy ... and an awfully cute one :0)
ReplyDeleteWhat a week ... hope the new one coming is a little calmer and quieter.
xx
Jarvis love being a 'big' boy. A calm week would be lovely
DeleteLove it Julie! You now are a MIL! Scary stuff! Love how the boys are playing together ;) I hope things slow down for you. Man, sounds like it's super busy at your place. xx
ReplyDeleteFunny how that term implies all sorts of things. I think I would prefer the busy at your place over the busy at our place.
