widge - Beautiful pictures. And I absolutely love your header too. Inspired!! thanks 🙂
julie - sugar sisters. taunting me.
not fair.
Laura Phelps - um…so very curious..exactly WHAT FALL sports does your hubby enjoy, because as far as I can tell, the football and baseball games are FAR from over!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In fact, I believe we have MONTHS to go…….
andrea - my fav is the kitchen sink, because it makes you real
Rebecca - I love all of your random pictures that you take. It’s such an inspiration to take more pictures of everyday life…because someday when you look back you’ll be able to remember all the small details and little things that made us happy. 🙂 Love all these pics! 🙂
Cate O'Malley - So many fun pictures, hard to pick a favorite … it’s either the pic of Annie happily eating something yummy, the swingset daredevil pic or the sunset on the farm – too fun!
Heidi Jo the Artist - Awesome photos! Especially love all the photos of the pumpkins!! Halloween is only a week away!?
Btw, I love the water video on charity waters website, they did an awesome job on it! Thanks for letting us know about the charity. After hearing about Water4Christmas through your blog I wanted to do something too! Will be adding something NEW to my shop at the end of next week and the money from those sales will go to Water4Christmas, Yah!! 🙂
Have a great weekend!

susie whyte - mmmm, ravioli. last night’s meal.
LOVE the trampoline picture. i laughed so hard. could be worse…he could be jumping from the roof to the trampoline. our sgt. buddy’s boys use to do that. ha ha. the frosting on the cupcakes reminds me of sugar sister’s work. so yummy.
Deborah Clark - Luv your photo’s you have the same drinking glasses as us. Following your blog has made me realise how important it is to spend time with the kids, have just played backyard soccer with 8 yr old son and I won. Thanks for all the inspiration.
Anne - Ah! So my heart jumped in my throat when I saw the jumping off the playscape onto the trampoline(!!!) picture. That is my future. I know it. Bracing myself:0)
Diana - I knew it! You live in that house down there… you know where I mean 😉 I so LOVE your photos… this bunch, the one I like best is the pile of dishes! Have an AWESOME weekend!
Christina - Love them all, but do you know which one I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE?
the dishes in the sink!! Ha! Life…made up of so many different kinds of pictures.
Love it! Only you could make a sinkful of dirty dishes look pretty. 🙂
sarah - Fun Random pictures!! Love the rainboots and the sink piled high… ours looks like that all the time and we don’t even come close to having how many people you do… I hate to think what ours will look like if and when we do 😉
Drea - I love your sink picture. Mine looks the same today!
Sandy - love the dirty dishes – reminds me of my childhood when mom always cooked a big dinner and my sister and I had to do all the dishes for a family of 6 kids and 2 adults. still doesn’t seem fair!
Tracy - I love all of your random pictures today, Meg. The one of Lauren and Waffle is adorable – especially since she’s a typical teen (who doesn’t want to be seen with her family – lol) and one we don’t get to see often enough. The one of Annie with the chocolate mustache is so cute and the fall photos are just gorgeous! Thanks for sharing! Have a great weekend! Big hugs, Trac~ :o)
pam - happy friday, meggie! i love your realness (is that a word?) 🙂 in your pictures. you are truly one of the most authentic people i know.
Stacie - random and real and honest and so so cool. i don’t know you but love to follow you. i wish ohio and kansas were closer so i could get to know you in person. keep up the great work. you inspire many!! tgif.
Sarah @ Clover Lane - LOVE the dishes. And I mean LOVE!
Aby - Love it. All of it. Lauren is gorgeous! Like her Momma!!! Have a great weekend girl!!
Janine - Thank you for posting that picture of the overflowing sink. It’s normal and somewhat comforting to know that my sink isn’t the only one in America that ends up like that! Thanks for the pretty pics too.
robyn - your daughter is so pretty. does she know she’s so pretty? she’s so pretty.
(Lauren. They are all beautiful, but I remember what it’s like to be her age, and I wonder if she knows how beautiful she is. Just beautiful.)
Heather - I love random pictures! And I always love a good chocolate beard on a kid. I just don’t think it gets much better then that!
misty - love these. I have been meaning to ask you about your photo editing. we also have a mac & we have iphoto… is that what you use to edit your pictures? I thought you were using photoshop but then i saw your list where you want to get and learn how to use photoshop… How do you make the sun so bright in your pics and how do you focus on one object and blur out the background? I LOVE IT!
Jill J - Oh Man! You just had to share that cupcake picture, didn’t you?! Good thing I made brownies last night… Anyway, your son is NUTS! 🙂 You couldn’t get my kids to do that for anything, they are the biggest chickens.
Thanks for the great post, today! It totally made my morning, because my sink looks just like that right now. ugh. I guess misery loves company! HAPPY WEEKEND!
