Thought for the day !!!

"Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass, it's learning how to dance in the rain."

I love Sundays

The Sabbath is my favorite day of the week. I get to spend more time with my family, get spiritually uplifted, and take a break from the world. It's a day to relax from the stresses of life. And there is just something about feeling the spirit even more on this day, probably because we try to devote our time to doing Christlike things.

Laprelle Park

This is Huck Finn Pond, where we will be going alot this summer. It is only about two miles away from our house, so it's within walking distance. Perfect place to read, or enjoy nature, and Chris loves feeding the fish.

Redneck Fire Alarm

Laramie windsock !!!

Click on this, it's funny but oh so true!!!

It's Summertime !!

Yesterday was the last day of school for Christopher, and was he excited, he lives for the summer. And I don't mind it either, it's nice having the time with my family. Summer's here in Laramie are almost perfection, you never need air conditioning, and we have an awesome mixture of rain, sun, and WIND. It's beautiful here as well, I call Laramie "Our Oasis in the desert" and it truly is!

It's Raining It's Pouring !!

It has been raining here in Laramie for almost two days now, and I'm loving it, there is nothing like the smell of fresh rain. We had a couple weeks of beautiful sunny weather, but now we are having a slight cool down, and it is awesome!

Something very personal

I have to admit, I have an insecurity about being in photo's since I have struggled with weight. I have learned alot about people, since my size has changed over the years. We are taught in church to look at what's inside, and not to judge by outward appearances. But a couple of days ago, I had a cold reminder of how cruel people can be. So I will try not to let it get me down, and that is why I added the picture below this entry. I am still the same person today that I was years ago ( in the Lord's eyes) and for that I am grateful. I have always loved 1st Sam 16:7 which reads -- "For the Lord seeth not as man seeth, for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the Lord looketh on the heart."

Favorite Family Photo.

I love this picture, even though I'm not quite comfortable with posing for pictures anymore.

Favorite picture "The Early Years.'

I have always loved this picture of Keith, myself, and Lanelle.
