Just For You Mama...

My Mama loves to see Dogwood trees and Azaleas. She was supposed to come for a visit this weekend but believe it or not, she was diagnosed with diabetes this past week and was not feeling up to making the trip. I would appreciate a little prayer sent up for her. She is a bit better today, and I am thankful. I think she will bounce back quickly and do well on her new medication. Anyway, these pictures are especially for her, but you can enjoy too! God's flowers and trees are so lovely. He must have been thinking about how much we would love to gush over the beautiful colors and watch it all grow and change.

We had a fine day today on the Azalea Trail. Tomorrow I will post pictures from the Tyler Zoo. Yes...we did go to the zoo. I know we are all grow ups but it is our favorite zoo and we visited SO many times when the boys were kiddos.
It was a walk down memory lane. Loved it. Blessings...until tomorrow.
Enjoy Mama.

Your Mama and I would hit it off! I so enjoy dogwoods and azealas as well!!! I actually just love all flowers and blooming trees...those pics are Gorgeous!

So sorry to hear about your mom--will lift her up in prayer for healing. My oldest son was diagnosed with diabetes at age 7...he's almost 13 now. It's a nasty little disease but he does well. I am standing on the word of GOD for his healing. One day, he will do NO MORE SHOTS!
Have a wonderful and Blessed Resurrection Sunday dear friend. :)

Remember: Your family probably does not care if your house looks like something out of Southern Living. They love the traditions and old ornaments and chipped Christmas mugs and plates. Our kids sure do. It is hard when we compare what we have to other people's "things" or decorations. We are all so richly blessed. I say, just don't do it. I am trying to hav

Camp Blue Haven-2012

Image
Mountains green, sparkling streams, every morning you greet me. Pine trees tall, waterfalls, blue skies canopied o'er me. May I know as I live and grow, God forsakes me never. May His love from above bless Blue Haven forever.  And what a blessing it was this summer to be back up in the cool mountains with so many people that we love.  As I reflected on this special place I thought about how big of an influence it has been on our children and our hearts.  At camp time slows down. There are so few distractions. The focus is on fellowship, enjoying God's creation and growing in knowledge of Him.  It has been a place to teach us what our life in this world should be about. It has also been a glimpse of what I think heaven will be a little like.  It has taught us to stay close to one another, to be accountable to each other and to live an out loud life for Christ. No holding back. Living it. Because of the encouragement and growth that happens here we are bett
