Brenda Photo Challenge (6-6-09)

Thank you Karen M. of Loved and Engraved for hosting the Brenda Photo Challenge for us this time around!! The theme was "Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder." It was SO hard to choose because of all the choices but I gave it a try...I Could have posted more photos of the family BUT....HAhaa...I believe you all know how I feel about them so I'll give you a break...I'll soon be around to enjoy all of yours!! And YES! I'm Early this time around...just 'cause!Hahaa...
Have a Wonderfully Beautiful day everyone!!


I had this grape vine in my garden for at Least 6 years..I loved it! It exist...no longer.
We have Always had animals...The last group was a black cat (Kiki), an apricot poodle(Rusty), and Corky laying on his blankie...He's still with us but There will be no more. We love him.
Do you Really believe God lives way up there? Listening and watching...and loving us...Wiping our tears when we're sad and holding us tight when we're afraid? How more beautiful can it be?
Ahhhh...to close your eyes...and fly.

Your photos are just great. Hard to decide which I like best because each one is so different yet beautiful on its own.

I think my favorite is the rays of sun. I always stop when I see them come through. They do make you feel like someone is sending down something just for you.

Donna said...

Wonderful pictures, Donna. Yes, I truly believe God lives up there.

Hugs,
Donna

Your words are lovely as ever, Donna. I do believe God is somewhere but not too sure about above the clouds. When Amy was last on a plane she asked where God's house was.

The last picture you took is my favorite kind of sky. The way the rays of the sun are pushing through the darkness is a sign of hope to me.
To me it is a sign that there is always light through our darkness.

Love you, Nita
