Goodnight, Sun
Aw! A most magnificent sunset in beautiful Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Staci and Larry, my daughter and husband, recommended eating at the Bistro Blue restaurant where the food is delicious AND “if you get there in time (6:30-ish) you’ll be amazed at the most breathtaking view of sunset.” Their advice didn’t disappoint. A sight to behold!…
The Sunflowers are Abundant
The family that captures memories together……STAYS TOGETHER…. in love, in support, in encouragement, and in MEMORIES! We missed our two granddaughters: Adeline, Carl’s granddaughter who is a cheerleader at Westlake High School in Austin and couldn’t miss “Senior” night at the football game. And my Alexia, who is attending ministry school in Nashville. But, sooner…
Are You Flourishing?
Thoughts of our huge garden in Oklahoma was my blog inspiration for this day. We always had great anticipation for a bumper crop. Then reality set in. Cultivating the soil, which can be rocky, dry and, if by hand, can be a wearisome task. Then it was sowing the seeds, keeping a watch out for…

And, what a declaration was made when a downpour of rain came and knock-me-outta’-my-bed-thunder and lightning early morning. I thought:…
Clean Up. Clean Out. Clean In.
It was Thanksgiving morning and my family were all coming in for our annual festivities. I was in the kitchen and getting my turkey ready for the oven. I walked over to my dining room table and the sun was coming in like a force-field. And, what to my wandering eyes would appear — under…
When Life is Sad — God is Good
I just can’t help myself. The inspirations at VBS keep coming so I must keep sharing! This has been a week of watching so many precious children get all caught up in God’s goodness and yesterday was off the charts. We had a departure of wandering in the wilderness with the Israelites to a day…
We Can Do This!
There’s a lot of folks out there complaining about the weather, the economy, the government, their job, their co-workers, their spouses, their children or their neighbor. And, then there are folks who are always optimistic, “can-do”, undaunted in their attitude to win, and whether the sun is out — or hiding behind a cloud —…
