I know I haven’t written much on here lately. I’m still unwinding from my beach birthday and I’m still in shock about a HUGE surprise that was waiting for me in my garage when I got home from my beach birthday. {see the video below}

I have been catching up with my family and our daily schedule and homework and exercising and grocery shopping and bill paying and letter writing and house cleaning…It just takes a while for me to get back into a groove.

Until I get back into my blog writing groove, here’s the video of my HUGE surprise for your viewing pleasure, guaranteed to make you smile.

2011 TeSelle Family Video

We started this in 2004, making a year-in-review video to share with friends and family.

For us, 2011 has been like a roller coaster. Greg nicknamed it Roller Coaster ’11 or “RC11″. For him, it was crazy because he was away from home, a lot. For me, it was crazy because he was away from home, a lot. He was working and hanging out with students. I was working and hanging out with our kids. We saw each other in passing.

Despite the RC11, we experienced plenty of Beautiful Things and this video shows you a few of them.

We hope your 2012 is filled with Beautiful Things.

the pool is open

i NEVER thought we would live in a house that had a pool. we are SO thankful for the friends that led us to this house. we are renting because we still own a home in chicagoland {if you know anyone looking to buy a house in the southwest suburb of lemont, let us know}. our landlord helped us get the pool ready for swimming, and last week during our spring break, we had our first swim. the water is chilly, but not chilly enough to keep us out. with teeth chattering, we had a blast.


tygar practicing. he’s either serious about learning how to swim or learning how not to drown. both are good things to learn.


eden and greg having fun together.


i think eden threw this one.


stone above the water. and the next second…


…he decided to go under the water! this was a FIRST for him. he has gone up to his nose and has dipped his face in the water. but this time, he went all the way under, on his own! and i caught it by accident!

had to put this in here too! what a dad!

{very amateur} video here. after i dropped off the boys at the bus stop this morning i wanted to watch the sunrise from our back patio. eden was still snoozing, so i seized the opportunity. i couldn’t help but notice the sounds of the birds, serenading me of course. i had my phone with me and hit record. it was a beautiful moment. hope you enjoy. if you get too dizzy, just close your eyes and listen.

“the heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.” psalm 19:1

“therefore i tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. are you not much more valuable than they? can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” matthew 6:25-27
