Weather Warning!

This past week my Chief came home from work and handed me this:

The tag reads:

CONGRATULATIONS!

You are a proud owner of a

TEXAS WEATHER FORECASTER

For best results hang on a nail outside your window...

If it is moving, it is windy

If it is wet, it is raining,

If it is dry, it is sunny.

If it is gone, you have been ripped off!

We had a good laugh as we contemplated Texas weather...and how accurate the weather forecasts are.

Dog sitting

We are caring for a neighbors Shih Tzu for the day.  This dog loves attention...and more!  A member of our family once wanted one of these breeds. This one has beautiful markings, but in my opinion needs a haircut...
Thankfully it does not shed hair. He is active and alert to everything that goes on around the house.

Summer Wedding

 On the beach.  At sunset. A beautiful setting.

A simple ceremony

 A happy couple

VBS

NRJ are helping at VBS this week.  I asked for  a pose before they headed out the door...

This...

is the biggest cantaloupe yet from our weedy garden....  Picked yesterday

I was inspired to post updated pictures of our garden when I saw a friends blog... but during our 20 days of absence the weeds took over, and when I went out to work at weeding for a little while the other day before it got too hot I received a plague of chigger bites that I am suffering for right  now.  I should have known better...to at least put bug spray on!  Oh the consequences of my choice.

Convictions

Does God speak to you?  Do you hear Him?  I do.  What I do with what I hear gives indication of where I am in my relationship with Him.  That still small voice may speak through:

1. The Bible

2. Impressions on the heart

3. Providential leading

I have been meditating on this verse today...

This is the way, walk ye in it 

Isaiah 30:21

Beach Party

There was a birthday in the family, and the wish was to get to the beach for the day.

The artists created a sand figure

Which turned out to be a turtle!

Watched seagulls stealing chips from someones backpack

Enjoyed the water...
