• 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.

Our summer started off with a new backyard addition.

Ben built Mallory and Mark a playset. We are so excited to have our own park :)

loving it!

What is summertime without baseball? Ben and his brother took Mallory to her first baseball game. They took in a Sounds one Sunday afternoon. Thankfully it wasn't too hot yet, the evening games would still be late for our schedule-even the relaxed summer one!

She seems to have had a great time!

One of the super fun things we got to do in May was celebrate with our sweet friend PC. Her mother throws AMAZING birthday parties that we so look forward to attending. This was actually the "make-up" version of the party. We were unable to attend "the real deal" due to the great Nashville flood of 2010.

really-this was the "watered down version!"
