365 Challenge: Days 52-57

I am really enjoying this 365 Day Challenge! Not only does it make me take a picture each day, but it also helps capture memories that are all too soon forgotten.

Enjoy!

Got Sense?

We *literally* spent over an HOUR playing with those little plastic letters at a party! Who says they are only for kids?


If you look carefully, you can see me and my brother in the bubble's reflection.

Can't wait to take more pictures!

Daisy

It happened a week ago. One week. Mom came downstairs with the test in her hand - it showed positive. We were ecstatic! A new brother or sister!!! We were so excited to share with all our friends, and couldn't wait to start planning out outfits and who would sleep where. Mom was pretty far along too!

The next day, Mom started having problems. Things outside her normal pregnancies. We didn't think much about it because it all pointed to signs of twins.

Mom was bed rest for the rest of the weekend. She started having cramps and other issues. We prayed that the baby would live.

Sometimes, we don't understand why God allows some things to happen. I didn't understand why.... But God's in control and He sees the big picture. He sees things in the future that will happen because of some things that wouldn't have happened if we didn't change. All we can do is trust in Him and know that all things work together for good for them that believe on Him.

God knows why the baby couldn't live. God knows it was best for us.

I don't know the reason. I don't understand why it had to happen that way. But I do know - it is all in His plan. He gives, and takes away. It may not make sense at the time - but it will someday.

Photography Club Meeting


The dusty wind blew while the sun was beating down on the weathered town. Parched lips were refreshed with precious water. The weary feet of the travelers were steadily marching...

Kinda.

The Photography Club met again at a well known western filming location for their next club meeting! Everyone had a great time taking pictures, hanging out, and going on a hike. Here are some of the pictures I took today - Enjoy!

365 Challenge: Days 44-51

Here's Days 44-51! I took many many pictures this week - it was so hard picking one picture to show you for each day!

Abby's Sister


My 1st Digital Camera! I can still remember the excitement of taking that first picture, the thrill of seeing the pictures on the little screen, and the horror of dropping it on the floor (hence the rubber band).


Mom's flowers from Valentine's Day


The beautiful sunset!


LOVE this picture! It was exactly what I was aiming to capture.


An awesome building somewhere in Orange County


My little determined brother...

Have a wonderful day!
