Lazy days of summer




Oh, the lazy days of summer are over. How sad. We have had a wonderful summer. The kids were in NM and TX for a month with my family. They had a blast and made lots of memories. They came back tanner and taller. They came back on Friday and went back to school on Monday. Back to reality! The lazy days of summer are over. This photo of Adelyn waiting for her turn on the jet ski is a great picture of 'wait'. The wait for next summer. The wait for school to be over. The wait for freedom. This world is full of 'waits'. Thank you, Lord, that what we wait for is so much better and greater than the wait!! It makes the waiting worth it!

Ecclesiastes says


"Wisdom brightens a man's face and changes its hard appearance."

I love this photo of my grandmother and daughter. They look alot alike. I love grandmother's wrinkles and Adelyn's smooth skin. Life is fleeting. So quick but so fun and full of blessings. The Bible says wisdom comes from God. May my face be bright and not hard much like Grandmother's. She is beautiful, her wisdom wrinkles add to her beauty. This photo is a picture of life and I am so thankful for both of the loved ones in it!

In New Mexico

My husband is giving me a hard time about not blogging. Are you surprised? I swear I kick myself daily for ever starting this! But being in NM and being detached from Jeff, my friends and all my blogging buddies, it just makes you want to blog and get some kind of response from the ones you are so use to being around. The kids and I have been in El Paso, TX, for several days to see my sister and her family. I can say I have never been to El Paso even though I grew up in NM. It was just like they say. American life(shopping centers, subdivisions, etc) on one side of the interstate and then pure Mexico poverty on the other side(dirt roads, shacks, few cars). My grandmother went with me and on the way back to my parents we stopped at the Guadalupe Mountains. They were beautiful. It is not like Arkansas around here. But there is beauty in the desert, the rock, the sunsets and even the tumbleweeds. It's only when you leave it and come back that you appreciate it. I guess that is how I feel about you there in Monticello and in the blogging world. I miss you! Dang it! So it brings me to blog! I might actually blog again before I leave. And that would be a record for me!!!!!

Spend most of my time behind a camera and computer or in my suv toting my kids to the baseball field or dance studio. My favorite place is home with Jeff and the kids. They keep me laughing!!
