Photo Shoot

 Hello every one! Yesterday I was playing with the little ones. All of the little girls wanted to dress up, so I helped them. Farah Beth and Treasure have been watching the American Girl movie Samantha lately, so they wanted to dress up like Her. I thought they were so cute ( and nearly looked like a 20th century child) so I wanted to get some pictures. Aren't they so cute?! 

                                                                       Farah Beth, she was quite proud of her dress:-)

                                                                                         Treasure

                                                                                              I love this one!

                                                             Well anyway, Josiah and Eden wanted to get in also. So, I let them. I set up my own photo area, dressed them up, then took some shots. I found out that the only thing harder to do then get Josiah to sit still, was to get him make a regular face! All he wanted to do was to make faces, then run and look at each shot. He was so cute though, and I did manage to get just a few serious faced ones..........

    Have a blessed week,

Mount McKinley

Mount Sanford

Mount Saint Elias

 

Who is  ready to go to Alaska? I AM!!! Such beautiful mountains. Wouldn't it be awesome if you could look out your bedroom window and see one of these magnificent sites?! God is so good! He created the earth so beautiful, every little bit of his creation cries out that there is a creator. If the earth is so beautiful, I can't even begin to imagine what heaven looks like! 

  The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork . ~ Psalms 19:1

Have Thine Own Way Lord

2. Have Thine own way, Lord,
     Have Thine own way;
   Thou art the Potter,
     I am the clay.
   Mould me and make me
     After Thy will,
   While I am waiting,
     Yielded and still.   
2. Have Thine own way, Lord,
     Have Thine own way;
   Search me and try me,
     Master, today.
   Whiter than snow, Lord,
     Wash me just now,
   As in Thy presence
     Humbly I bow.
3. Have Thine own way, Lord,
     Have Thine own way;
   Wounded and weary,
     Help me, I pray.
   Power, all power,
     Surely is Thine,
   Touch me and heal me,
     Savior divine.
4. Have Thine own way, Lord,
     Have Thine own way;
   Hold o'er my being
     Absolute sway.
   Fill with Thy Spirit
     Till all shall see
   Christ only, always,
     Living in me.

      This is a really pretty hymn I found in our hymn book. I don't know the tune to it, but I still love the words; especially the first stanza. I just thought I would share it with you. Have a blessed summer day,

Eden Joy

Hi All! Don't you just love taking pictures of little kids?! It is really hard to get them to sit still, I know from experience, but I love when you get those really cute random shots!  I had a photo shoot a couple days ago with Eden. She is SO adorable, and sweet! Here are some of the pictures. Oh, and by the way, here is a little tip on how to get a baby to sit still. Give them something to play with that you will not mind being in your picture. I gave her a old antique perfume bottle and also a conk shell!:) Here they are!

                           

Likes and dislikes about summer

 Hi every body! I know summer has been here for a while, so this post is a little late, but I will post it anyway! 10 things I love about summer. Here I go!

1. Water, ya know the beach and pool.

2. Warm weather, though I do not really ,like any weather over 90 degrees!:(

3. Fresh fruits: Watermelon, strawberry's, grapes, oranges, grape fruits (with sugar on top,) grapes, peaches plumbs, mangoes,cherries,  and the list goes on! Yes, I am a fruit lover!:)

 4. Cook outs!

5. Ice cream, lemon-aid, and all those cool treats. I had better stop, making myself hungry for some!!   

6. Time off from school.

7.Just a time to relax!

8. Lots of vacations!

9. No coats or sweatshirts.

10. Light summer clothes, and flip flops!

There, is that a good enough list? Okay, now here is my list about what I don't like about summer.

  1. Really hot weather!

  2. Mosquitoes.

   3. Snakes.

   4.  Sunburn!

   5. When it gets to hot to go out doors, and you get board inside. I guess that is the same as disliking the hot weather. So in a way I like to have school through the really hot months in the summer, and have time off in the fall and spring. Actually my whole family does, so that is what we are going to do this year. I would love to read your likes and dislikes of summer! God bless,

Wednesday, June 8th

It's a Blog Party!

1. What are two songs that describe you? 

Hmm, I don't really know if I have one!

2. What do you most fear?

Snakes, roaches, well I don't actually fear them (roaches,) but I do NOT like them AT ALL!! Snakes are just well, scary! I am not scared of bugs, unless you are talking about black widows. My dad was bit once, and had to be rushed to the emergency room, in VERY much pain. I am also scared of some ocean creatures, ya know, sharks, great whites, bull sharks, and mostly the sand shark. Sand sharks are usually the only sharks that are near were I swim.:) Just something about swimming in water that is dark and you can't see where you are stepping!  

3. What color(s) dominate(s) your wardrobe? 

Lot's of colors, none really the same! However I have a bunch of creams, whites, pinks and dark blues.

4. How do you normally do you hair?

I normally  have it down, or in a loose low braid.

5. Do you prefer milkshakes or smoothies?  

I I love both!
 

6. Do you like the color pink? 

Very much, but it is not my favorite color.

7. What is your favorite flower? 

So many! Must I pick a favorite. Since I don't have one favorite I will list my top favorites!:)

                                              Water Lily

Rose of Sharon

Violet

                                                         Verbena Flower

8. How many states have you been to? So many, I live in SC. I have been to NC, GA,FL,VA,MD, WV, PA, DE, MA, NJ, NY,CT, and to Canada.  

9. What is your favorite thing about June? 

It's the beginning of summer!!! {Well, at least for most people. Being done with school, such a nice brake. Especially since we live 5 minutes from the beach, I do NOT like such hot weather or the mosquitoes! 

10. Describe your "dream wedding location."

     I haven't thought much of it. But..... I would probably like to be married in a beautiful field where wildflowers grow. And may be a pretty little creek to be near by. Lot's of large, old, and mossy oak trees over hanging.

Thanks for hosting Lucia!
