InstaFriday

I've had a handful of friends and family who have asked me to explain the purpose of Instagram before. Such silly people.
So I have many times said "it's like super-speed blogging, throughout the day if I want".
I love blogging.  So I love Instagram.
But you definitely don't have to love blogging to love IG.  My hubby is on Instagram, he really likes it.  But he doesn't blog. If you were wondering.

And today when I clicked over to Life Rearranged to link up for InstaFriday - the first line of her post read...
"I heard Instagram referred to as micro-blogging"
EXACTLY.  Perfect description.  Even better than mine.
There's just something I love about freezing moments in time and journaling (even just a few words) about them.

Here's a little peak at the past few weeks through Instagram and just a few others that didn't make it on Instagram.
1.  I turned another year older.  We celebrated with a night out at one of my favorite restaurants. 

2. I woke up to flowers that Mason and Dave picked out on the way home from dropping Taylor off at the bus stop.

3. We've had a fun little thing we do since the kids were pretty young...if it's night when we pick them up from Nana and Papa's, they get to drive home.  (since it's just a few blocks and hardly any traffic).  Mason is getting sooooo good. Honestly. Dave takes his hands off the wheel and we just tell him to keep it in the middle.  We of course are going so super slow.

4. Last year I was pregnant with 6 close friends.  Now those babies are all starting to turn 1. Not sure why they think it's okay to do that.  Gavin got to help celebrate the first of them!



5. We had a night out with some friends, for dinner and the Hillsong United concert.  There is something so completely amazing and encouraging to be in a huge crowd of people singing and worshipping. It was an awesome night!



 6. We started our first no-school Friday with a breakfast date to McDonald's.


7. This little guy has found a new form of entertainment that lasts for a long long time.  Too bad it takes up so much room or else I'd have it out all the time.


 7. My cute stripey boys.


8. And Fall might finally be here!  We went from the 80's to the 50's in one day. So hot chocolate and fresh cookies were waiting on the kiddos when they got home from school.

Happy Friday!  YAY for fall!!
Hope you enjoy your weekend.

Yay for blogs -- yours reminded me that my dad used to let me steer into the garage when I was little (I'm early 30s now, so it's fun when something triggers those "it's-been-a-long-time-since-I-thought-of-that" childhood memories!).
