traditions

here’s a capture i wanted to share…..  the traditional christmas board game…oh my, it’s truly an event!  my boys, are extremely competitive.  i blame that on their father, because i’ve never been one to worry about winning a race or a game… but my husband and the boys, well let’s just say they have been known to “cheat” to win.  ugh.. shameful! 

so this year’s game of cranium was quite wild at times.  brett and my nephew jeremy won, but i’m wondering if there was a little cheating going on.  at one point my brother, the 2 boys and my mom were all doing the river dance (charades part of the game)… too funny!  and my brother was singing a rita macneil song… lol… 2, 2 funny! 

anyhow, i love traditions…..  i love that we always play a board game at christmas… that john and i play scrabble in the winter, that my mom always makes certain food for certain holidays, that my boys traditionally mock the skinning stockings (mocking the stockings)… it’s a secure, safe kind of feeling and one i know that i should not take for granted. 

i am so excited about 2010.  i plan on capturing all the moments that make it special.  i am sooo pumped to start painting tomorrow.  i have some great BIG plans.  i’m bursting with anticipation. 

so here’s to old and new traditions…i’m so excited… 

2010….look out! 

see you soon……  xxo, kim

p.s. we are celebrating “calm” on the 2BBB…come on over and check it out…

It sounds just wonderful, Kim! I absolutely love our traditions too, I hope the kids always keep them up and make their new ones. Really looking forward to seeing what you have lined up for painting! I passed on your photography site to my daughter, her and her new hubby are shutterbugs and do a lot of weddings too. She just loved it!! :) Have a wonderful day. ~ Nancy
