This took my breath away as I was driving through the hills of Ramona. I rolled my window down and took this picture that doesn't really show the beauty that was there. In that moment of light I knew there was God and his Son our Savior!

A Summer Evening by Isaac Watts
How fine has the day been! how bright was the sun!
How lovely and joyful the course that he run,
Though he rose in a mist when his race he begun,
and there followed some droppings of rain!
But now the fair traveller's come to the west,
His rays are all gold, and his beauties are best:
He paints the sky gay as he sinks to his rest,
and foretells a bright rising again.

Just such is the Christian; his course he begins,
Like the sun in a mist, when he mourns for his sins,
And melts into tears; then he breaks out and
shines,
And travels his heavenly way:
But when he comes nearer to finish his race,
Like a fine setting sun, he looks richer in grace,
And gives a sure hope, at the end of his days,
Of rising in brighter array.





My beautiful neice with my beautiful mama. Alyssa was driven to her prom date's house with her Nana, Aunt Haley, Mother, sister Brooke, and cousin Perry. I can only imagine what her date and his family must have been thinking. When the people in our family are in need of support, we call in the troops!

The baby! Some may say it is tough to be the youngest - perfect example being dressed as Minnie Mouse. I say it is amazing to be loved and tended to by 5 beautiful brothers and sisters and some devoted cousins as well.
