Friday Photos...

Good morning! Here are a few happy photos from the past few days.

Thought for today:
All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
We just have to open our eyes and our minds...THINK about God, about what He is doing around us and trying to do THROUGH us.
Have the eyes to see it.

A lovely stretch of road on the way home from Mom and Dad's house last week. The leaves are SO beautiful right now.

Yes, it is way too early. Just could not help it.





Wesley's latest master piece drawing. He is going to give this to his Aunt Becky at Thanksgiving. They have a Boston Terrier and she wanted him to draw a picture for her.
I think it turned out really fine.
The sun coming through the neighbor's trees this morning. So beautiful. I am sure I looked pretty silly standing out on the driveway in my fluffy red robe and slippers taking pictures this morning. The school bus came by and I could see kids laughing at me! ha.
Here is lookin' at you kid!
Blessings on your day! Thanksgiving is coming!! :)

Wonderful photos! I loved the sun-streaming-thru one - and the flag off to the side. :)

I'm sure the kids on the bus were amused! :)

You need to enter that close-up photo of the leaves in a contest; I think it's an award-winning photo!
