Project 365: Keep Calm, Summer Is Coming

"Keep Calm Cause summer is coming!"

Hey everyone!

Well we went into another deep freeze for a couple days, it got down to -7 here with a -40 wind chill! Thankfully it warmed up all the way to 11 today!! I was quite happy to see some icicles melting outside my window today :)

 I told you there would be a bunch of pictures coming for Emma's birthday and I didn't lie, so here are a few pictures from Emma's 13th birthday :























Also for all my fellow bluegrassers out there, be sure to watch out for our banjo player, she just got a set of Keith Tuners and is ready to take on the world with some new music! :) 
Now I have a confession, this passed week I hardly took any pictures on my camera... usually there are a couple phone pictures but this week it is almost all of them. BUT next week I'm hoping not to have any phone pictures to make up for these. I had QUITE the interesting week though as you will see :) 
soooo here is week FOUR of Project 365! Yes! I have completed an entire Months worth of pictures! :)

I didn't realize just how many pictures have been black and white lately. But sometimes taking the color out of photos makes them more interesting. Especially people blowing out candles I've noticed, honestly I don't really have a good excuse other then I like black and white ;) 

Have an amazing day everyone! 
Stay warm!
Cross your Fingers
and pray for summer!

Project 365 And a Very Happy 13th Birthday!

"If you're reading this, Congratulations you're alive! If that's not something to smile about, then I don't know what is." 

Hello again everyone! 

 How has your week been?
This is actually going to be two posts put in one,
Today is Emma's THIRTEENTH birthday!! 
When did she get so old!!!?! 

She's Quite around people
but when she does speak its always hilarious
she's Loud around family
When you can't find her she's hidden away in her room playing banjo
If you let her she will steal your instrument and out play you in less than a day
She's pretty cool
She's absolutely amazing
and she's my sister!

                      Happy birthday to the most amazing 13 year old banjo player anyone has ever met!
Now This is usually the time when I would post all those terrible funny pictures of her, and when she saw it her face would turn red and she would just shake her head and walk away. So since it is her birthday I'll be nice ;)



Happy birthday emma ! I hope you have an amazing day ;) Also I may or may not be licking the spoons from making your birthday cake as I type this ;)

Not gonna lie I'm pretty proud of myself for posting for the third week in a row!
This week I was bored with normal pictures, I wasn't all that creative when it came to the pictures themselves so I decided to go a little crazy when it came to the colors and editing :)

Project 365 Week 3-

Day 20

Day 21
     I think I went somewhere every single day this passed week! We were super crazy busy and I loved every minute of it :)
    It'll be nice to slow down a little bit this week though:) I'm kind of loving watching all of this snow melt finally.    
     Northwest Indiana just got another huge snow storm and got another 21 inches of snow! Thankfully it missed Michigan City, so I'm starring at about 4 inches, which is perfectly fine with me :)
    My family also started working on new music for the group this week, we have a TON of new songs that we are learning and it is actually pretty exciting. We had been looking forward to putting the set list together for weeks and now we finally have and are excited to get to work learning and perfecting everything :)
    Alright, well that's really all I have to say for this week.
    I'll most likely end up posting about Emma's birthday, and a picture of this cake ;) it tastes pretty good so far :)

                                                 Have a Beautiful Day everyone!! :)
