Coldest Winter

Eric has to drive over an hour to work in extreme winter conditions. The wind chill was -45! Praying for safe travels as my dedicated hubby drives to work, no matter the weather.

Almost All Grown Up

Christy had a friend take senior pictures this weekend, and they turned out great! There are over 100 pictures to choose from for her graduation announcement. I still can't believe she'll be 18 in March, and then off to college this fall! Time flies!

New Pet

We have a new pet to care for in the Crafton household! She is a Christmas gift for the kids, and she seems happy and content in her new home. Her name is Artemis, and she is a welcome addition to our family!

Happy New Year!

I got a neat sunset shot on New Year's Eve...the last sunset of the year!

Crafty Craftons

Christy & Becca made "art pillow" at their art class in town!

20th Wedding Anniversary

October 27th was our 20th wedding anniversary! God has been so good to us over the years, and I'm thankful for our life together! I love this guy so much!!💓

Autumn Artistry

We're taking a break from storm damage clean-up for a few days, and enjoying the fabulous fall colors while we can! Today, I was able to unwind in my "happy place". I love being outdoors! We hiked Kathio State Park for most of the day, and visited a chilly Lake Mille Lacs for about 20 minutes. My boys insisted I take pictures of all of the wild and whacky mushrooms that were growing in the woods, due to a very wet autumn. If you're interested, the mushroom pics are towards the end of my "slide show".
