• Here you will find the chronicles of our family of four. More pictures than words, I am most at home capturing our life with a still camera. Photos help me recognize the beauty and awesomeness in both the phenomenal people I live life alongside and this breathtaking place we live, planet earth.

    I am a child of God. I am the wife to a wonderful man, mother to two amazing little people. I am both daughter and sister. I am a runner. I love to travel and read.

    I often title this season of our life's adventure, The Continuing Adventures of Mallory Girl and Mark Boy. The photography is mine (unless otherwise noted.) Questions are always welcome. Thanks for reading and adventuring alongside us.

the one where I confess…

I lost my wedding ring during all the Christmas decorating. On the Friday after Thanksgiving, amidst all the garland and tree trimming, it fell out of my pocket. Today after searching and not a few tears (mine not Ben’s) I found it!!!!! I think my ring fell out of a chair as we moved it across the room. Wherever it came from, it was laying innocently on the floor in front of the fireplace, just waiting to be picked up and put back on my finger. I am a happy girl!! ๐Ÿ™‚

Goal: take down the Xmas deco

I cannot remember a year when the Xmas decorations stayed up this long. It’s driving me crazy. As usuall, when I have too much to get done, I do nothing. Today that stops (at least long enough to get the tree and garland down!)

It all looked very pretty. Did you find a wedding band in all that garland??

New Years Day.

Happy New Years!!

A new beginning. A first. A new year. A new month. A new week. A new day (this morning).
A great day: hanging out with Ben, working towards our dreams, worshiping the Lord.
That hymn "strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow" have been running through my head all day. I want it and the more modern song "Yes Lord" to be my anthems for the year!

my personal anthem for 2006 is “Prepare Ye The Way of the Lord,” with a little “God of Wonder” mixed in.
