A Memory Maker: Turkey Cookies

This year at Thanksgiving my college age daughter asked if we could make Turkey Cookies with all the little cousins. She said it was a great memory that she had from when she was a little girl.
So, we made a new memory this year with all the little ones in our family.

I do wish I had planned to watch this wedding better and had some chilled mimosa's ready. The carriage ride is fairytalish. We do miss the charm of a Royal Family here in the US. I love the pomp, honor & charm.

What an absolutely beautiful couple. This a true promise of Hope & Change!

Beautiful Ceremony. May God truly bless their marriage and may it be long and abundantly happy!

She is lovely.

Oh the bridesmaids and maid of honor are beautiful. Can't wait to see Kate.

First glimpse of the bride. She has a long train and her hair is down.

The Queen has arrived. Such pomp & circumstance. Just beautiful. The Queen estimates that she has worn over 5000 hats.

Yellow wins. The Queen is wearing bright yellow. Her subjects are going wild.

Mrs. Middleton looks beautiful. A lovely mother of the bride. They just announced there is betting on the Queen's hat. 7-4 odds it will be yellow. Too funny.

The Royal Wedding

I really had no intention of waking at 4 am to watch Kate & Wils wedding, even though I had watched Diana & Charles years ago. But I woke up at 4 and then again at 4:15 with a strong urge to pray for this young couple.

So, I am up watching and it is a day filled with joy and hope for not just a country but the world. It is a true fairytale story.

The Abbey is beautiful, the weather sunny and Oh the hats!

More later...

Fuel Your Kids Passion

We have always tried to fuel whatever our children had a passion for. Our son, Joshua, has loved trains, karate, boy scouts, science, computers and more. He has always excelled at whatever he has done. And, we expect that of him. He is now 17 years old, and is focused on the film industry. He wants to write and direct movies.

Last summer he completed his first full length script, an adaptation of Treasure Island. He has had the opportunity, because we Homeschool, to work on a film project of a friend of ours which has taken him to LA, Angola Prison, and Lake Oconee.

Recently he has been producing short films. And, this is his latest. He and his sister went to Savannah for two days and he filmed this while he was there. Joshua immediately came home, edited the footage and produced this movie. Savannah's Tourism has already taken notice and want to use it on their twitter and facebook pages. How cool!

I hope you enjoy, "Heart of Savannah."

The Princess Syndrome

My daughter just finished this short film for her Digital Story Telling Class in College.  I thought that it made a very good point about the lesson that our daughters take away from the beautiful princesses in movies.  Our society is so focused on outward beauty that we forget what is really important: inward beauty.

Outward beauty will fade, but inward beauty will last a lifetime.

Great Job, Dulce!
