365-313-317 Plus Extra! Day at the Beach!

So these are pictures from our day at the beach the other day!  I love the beach!  That is one of the great things about our move.

The bottom right is a picture of my boy and his best friend.  They have been friends since birth.  It was so funny to see these two teenagers act like little boys and run around on the beach.  Boy, I miss him and his parents!

I have been struggling lately.  Trying to keep focused on Jesus.... Trying to be content and thankful for the many blessings we have.  Thankful for the job my husband has....but I am home sick!

The holidays are coming up... it will be hard but I am going to try to keep up with our traditions that we have had over the years.  They may have to be tweaked a bit. Maybe we can eat turkey on the beach?  That would make me feel better : )

Have a blessed weekend!

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things.
Philippians 4:8

We went to the beach on Sunday and there was a college/photography student taking pictures of this mirror on the beach.  I started talking to her because that is what I do and she explained what she was doing.  She let me take pictures of her mirror... and this is what I got.  One is focused clearly on the mirror and the other is focused on the water that is in the reflection.  So cool.  Not sure which one I like best? What about you?  Which one is your favorite?

Blessings,

My Grandson turns 1!  What a fast year!  What a sweet boy he is!
We found this enormous pumpkin and thought it would be fun to carve it out and put him in it.  We were not sure of his reaction but he did not mind at all!

Blessings,

365-301-303 Happy Weekend!

We are off on a road trip to our home town.  Going home to celebrate my sweet grandson's first birthday!  Wow! Time went by so fast!  We are also visiting with my parents, my sweet friends, and our home church.  Our church always holds a Harvest Festival as an alternative to Halloween.  It is used as an outreach.  My kids are excited to see their friends and they have some cute costumes to wear. This will be the first year that they are not working the booths, participating in the skits and playing in the band.  That will be bitter sweet.  
I have good and bad days with this move.  It has been so hard to be pulled away from my life at home.  I tell my husband that now, I can move anywhere.  I have no strings attached here! : ) Of course, that is now!
Have a blessed weekend and in everything keep Jesus first!

Blessings,
Kim
