Musings- Missing our Children, Waves and Being Silly...

I miss these two. 
Bad.
Oh, but look at them in their cool Advocare t-shirts!
Look out Arizona! These two are going Advocare crazy!

All thoughts below are very random postings of  pics from here and there of journeys traveled in the past few weeks. June was a busy month for us. It seems we had nearly all of our summer plans packed into one month. Believe me it is difficult for my kind husband that actually only takes off one week in June, but we manage to keep his weekends busy too.  

We took a quick trip to Corpus after we were home for a week from New Mexico for camp and the Red River Encampment. We just walked on the sea-weedy beach and slept late and ate sea food.  A good time was had by both of us. Thankful.


Since I told you about missing our two "kids" above I must tell you that I miss this young gentle giant more than words can tell.  He is doing a super job at camp this summer. So proud of him. He is having fun too.
 He is a character...
We had fun in June at camp too. Oh- yes I told you about that. :)
1st session CBH goes by too fast.
Not enough time to be silly (looking at these pictures you are thinking, "There was plenty of time to be silly!") and to talk about God.
Once again- thankful. Thankful.

This is the scripture that really resonated with me this summer at camp. 
I praise God for the blessing of being His child and knowing the truth about Jesus and for the voice and heart to share Him with other people.
Let us never stop...

Yes, you have been busy! I'm about to go stir crazy here since not much has been happening since graduations. We just can't balance everything out like we would like. Vacation can't come soon enough!

Enjoy.  Alaska memories. Love this fat Santa above. Thrilled with how this little wreath turned out. Happy Christmas decorating! 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
