Our Little Swimmer

An Amazing Book!

I am reading this book called "Heaven" by Randy Alcorn. It is truly a remarkable book!!! As I was sitting on my couch one day last week, I saw this. It was as though the Lord was happy I am reading about my eternal home...the light from the sun was shining so brightly on the book right before I picked it up to read. I can't wait to see the New Earth and be at home forever with Jesus!!!!

Happy 6th Birthday, Bunni!

Today this little dog has been with me for six full years now. Paul and I love her so much. A photo shoot of the birthday girl:

My beautiful niece and me. I love her so much!!!!

Hilarious Picture

I'll have to do a post about Paul's and my trip to Harper's Ferry, West Virginia...but before I do, I have to share this picture with y'all. When we were in Harper's Ferry there was a group of reenacting Civil War Union Soldiers. I asked if they would pose with Bunni and they were thrilled to death! Bunni loved it and you can tell by her expression. Ha!

Tuesday's Bible Verse and Quote

"Do not be afraid to be different from other people. The path God has called you to travel is exquisitely right for you...to follow God wholeheartedly, you must relinquish your desire to please other people." -Sarah Young

Psalm 118:6-11
"The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me? Yes, the Lord is for me; he will help me. I will look in triumph at those who hate me. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in people. It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in princes. Though hostile nations surround me, I destroyed them all with the authority of the Lord."

Summer 2010

Here are some pictures of the time we spent in West Virginia. I'll go ahead and let the pictures tell about our trip:

On the way to Paul's parents' house.
We saw a doe and her baby

This church is up the road from Paul's parents' home

View from the road

This state park is also down the road.

Pretty state park.

Paul and Bunni infront of the lake.

Beautiful!

Yes, indeed...this was beautiful!

We took Bunni on this trail at the park....she enjoyed the walk.

I love the golden hour of the day...

There was a Mama duck and her two chicks....

This was before they got into the water....

Poppy's gigantic garden! The vegetables were amazing...I loved the onions and tomotoes and cucumbers the best!!!

Paul and I took this picture from the car on our way to the state park...it threw Poppy off, he didn't know what we were doing. Alex was helping his grandpa water the garden.

Bunni after she got her haircut.

Downtown Huntington's Pet Palace where Bunni got groomed.

Our brother-in-law, Danny, and precious neice, Marissa. I think they look so much alike!

Paul was digging around in the old root cellar from the early 1700s!

This is where Paul grew up! WOW!

This is Paul's parents' backyard. We took a ride in the mule. Yeah...I thought a "mule" was a horse, too. I found out that it's a little car that you can take up on trails or just to go through tall brush, etc.

Marissa and me in the mule...ha!

Paul drove Marissa and me around! :)

Another picture in the backyard. Somewhere up there is the old 1700s wagon trail still on Poppy's land!

Pretty river.
