You Capture: Kisses

It was a fitting theme over at You Capture this week. It was kisses. It’s a challenge to get a self-portrait of a kiss, but I have a couple. Not really my best effort, but I think they’re cute.

And I think I used this next […]

Wanna see the new color of my bathroom?

Yeah, it’s that bluish color that’s streaked through my hair. Let’s just say that it wasn’t so smart of me to lean that close to the wall when it was still wet. Why was I leaning that close to the wall with the top of my head, you ask? That would be […]

You Capture: Work

The topic for this week’s You Capture was the suggestion of one of Beth’s readers. I wasn’t thrilled by the idea at first, as I only worked one day since last week, and there are pretty significant laws about patient privacy in hospitals (like I would really take pictures of my patients!) […]

Poor kid

Noah is home sick today. Just after Andy and I went to bed last night, we heard Noah calling for Andy. Andy went in to find Noah had thrown up in bed. We got him cleaned up, gave him some clean sheets, put a bowl next to his bed, and laid a blanket along the […]

Lego night

Noah and Caden spend a lot of time studying the instruction booklets that come with the Lego sets Noah has gotten. They like to look at the other sets you can buy. This afternoon, Noah insisted we go out to buy him the Lego “Echo Base” set. I reminded him that he had received money […]

You Capture: Love Around Your Home

The assignment given to us by Beth for this week was to find love around our homes. We were to capture what we love, what gives us joy as we look around our home. Here’s what I found.

We had this bulletin board for a while, and finally Andy wanted […]

You Capture: Your Winter

It should be fun to see what everyone comes up with for this week’s You Capture theme. See, Beth is really popular in many areas of the country (and probably the world!) and not everyone lives in a snowy winter wonderland like I do here in Wisconsin. But this is what we’ve […]

You Capture: 2009 in pictures

You Capture is back! It’s been a busy few weeks for everyone, especially Beth. So she took a little hiatus, then challenged us to gather up our favorite photos from 2009.

Well, seeing as I’ve challenged myself to a Project 365, I’m not too ambitious in pulling together pictures again. So I’m […]

Our Christmas Day

Well, there’s no You Capture this week, but I made up this post anyway. It’s about our Christmas celebrations on Christmas Day. Enjoy!

On Christmas Eve, the boys laid out the cookies, coffee cake, carrots, and cheese (for Santa Mouse), along with a letter to Santa explaining that the cheese was for Santa Mouse.

Ode to 2009

We’ve had quite a year, a year so fine.

Let’s review what’s happened for the Hoffman’s in 2009!

The year started with visiting the art museum and Domes.

Noah lost his first tooth and the tooth fairy visited our home.

In February we drove to […]
