This year I tried to capture moments I was thankful for, as they were happening. I did it all with my iPhone and the help of a few apps. The result was magical, documenting my gratitude not only helped me to truly enjoy this special time with the ones I love, but looking back on these precious moments fills my heart with so much joy. I am so very grateful for each and every one of the reasons I have to be thankful this year.

Thankful for helping hands in the kitchen,

the very best sweet hugs & kisses.

A Nana who likes to craft,

siblings who love each other,

and teaching them to be thankful too.

Knowing my children have grandparents who want to be a part of their lives,

and to have known a love like this.

Thankful for the happy home I have built with my best friend.

Life is good and I am blessed.

To celebrate this feeling and in hopes of helping it spread throughout the holiday season, I’d like to start a new series we can all participate in – Life in An Instant. A chance for us to share those moments that matter most.

Follow along as I capture Life in an Instant here

Catch these moments as they happen in your Facebook feed

Or leave a collection of your own


If you’d like some help getting started or have questions about which apps to use, I’m happy to help.

Giving Thanks

1 Thessalonians 5:18 “…give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

I’m wishing every one of you a blessed Thanksgiving day, I hope you had the opportunity to spend it with those you love and a moment to relax and enjoy the start of a wondrous holiday season. I’m thankful for the memories I will cherish from today – playing hopscotch and ball with my children, then sipping homemade cider and having cookies, debuting my best Turkey yet, and a darling infant who just wanted some time with Mom. Life is good, I feel blessed.

Image depicts things we should all be thankful for: Simple Pleasures, Things Close to Our Hearts, Art, Sweets, Home, Natures Harvest, Music, Life through the eyes of a child, Travel, Making it Handmade, the Great Outdoors, Planet Earth, Bountiful Fruit, Special Moments, Fall, Brothers and Sisters, and the Promise of a New Day
