Wishful Thinking...

Reminiscing of days gone by.

They Are HOME!

I picked up my blessings from the airport this week.  I am so happy!

I decided I wasn't ready for the empty nest yet :)

What do you see?

Monday...Already?

Blogland has been a fun addition to my life. I so enjoy getting to know others through this process.  However, in contemplating my time management skills...or lack thereof I realize that I can't keep up with blogging the way I want to! I want to read my favorite blogs out there...and that takes time.  Too much time sometimes. It has made me wonder if I should just quit posting my own blog. Then I wouldn't be tempted to take so much time reading others.  I am in a season of change in my life, and three college bound kids will soon be back home from their 6 week summer trip. They will need my time.  The job title "chauffeur" will be brought out of the closet again along with being actively involved in my kids lives..Shuttling back and forth to classes and their activities will be in full swing.  Will my blog disappear?  No...but I do have to practice some time management skills ;o)

Here are a few pictures of summer highlights:

  Visiting my uncle

Taking  a swim

Finding a soft shelled turtle in the pool!

Checking out a furniture store with sisters

Celebrating a birthday with a tea party

Prayer of dedication for the new school teachers

Experiencing a flood

Celebrating birthdays and Citizenship status.

Pecans!

It looks like we might get some pecans this year.  It is exciting to get fresh picked nuts.

Tent Revival

I was privileged to attend evangelistic meetings planned and executed by young adults. They did great! I was encouraged and challenged to deepen my relationship  with God.

Bloom

Where you are planted...

It has taken me 15 years in the area we live, and I am still trying to "fit in". 

I will take a lesson from this picture.
