So when in years to come, my house is still-

Somehow in an unplanned way, we all ended up in coordinating black/white outfits yesterday for church. Oh yeah, we're that awesome family. 

As you can see by these faces, I busted out the treats in an attempt to get them to stand still for all of 5 seconds.  Kensington's eyes go huge with anticipation.  Amaryllis does her happy-food dance.

And I close my eyes and pray REAL hard that I'm soaking up the fun, quarky, non-scheduled, lazy, hectic, chaoticness that my days are filled with. 
And that I'll never look back with regrets.

I guess it's been on my mind a lot lately.  Every week I change out my iPhone home screen photo with some sort of pick-me-up-cheesy-pinterest quote.  Here was last weeks:

Go take fun pictures of your little ones and enjoy the silliness.
