Kelsi recital

Kelsi had a recital and played a piece from the church hymn book. She is no longer taking lessons but because she took lessons most of the year the teacher still let her play. I really wish she would continue because she is really good but she doesn't like practising. She looked beautiful!! The song that is playing is the song that she played however this is not her playing or singing!! Love is spoken here.

She was so excited!!

Another Jacob Story!! March 10,2009

These stories can only come from this guy!! So today was picture day at the high school. Oh never mind that he just had his wisdom teeth taken out this weekend and he looks like a chipmunk!! But I thought they always took these pictures at the beginning of the year. Anyway I guess things have changed over the time I have graduated ( we wont talk about how many years that was!!) So I guess one of his Friends brought a nice dress shirt and tie and kept giving it to all the guys he knew so in the year book they will all be wearing the same shirt and tie!! What a neat idea huh?? Richard and I got a great laugh out of that tonight!! Just thought I would share the story with you all!! I wish I was there you know I would have taken a picture but I didn't get an invite!!

This was another Cruise picture that I just found today!! I didn't realize how beautiful of a picture I took!! This was our last night on the cruise watching the sunset while we were eating a wonderful dinner!!! Of course I had to ask the couple by the window If I could get a shot at the sunset!! Lucky for me they were happy to let me in!! How rude of me but I am so glad I did it!!

Cindy's Freak Snow Storm

My sister woke up this morning expecting a normal day!! Yesterday was beautiful!! When her husband went to work this morning and got the paper everything was dry ( the newspaper wasn't even wrapped in plastic) then a little later she looked out side and this is what she saw!! The funny thing is my dad lives across town and he got maybe 3 inches of snow!! Amazing what can happen a few miles away!! Sparks, NV

Sarahs Blow Out!! March 8,2009

Sarah here is the pictures I promised!! See it always help to have a camera where ever you go!!
This is what was left of her tire when Richard and I got there!!

Ok Just so no one has bad thoughts they are not sitting on the freeway almost getting hit, but they are on a road up top from the Grapevine. Where no cars I guess even drive on the road!! Here is Big brother to the rescue within about 10 minutes she was back on her way from her blowout!!

A Prayer Request

I am not sure if anyone has heard about Baby Jonah, It has been in the news in several areas. I don't usually do this sort of thing specially when I don't know the person, personally but this story has just touched my heart. I have been following her blog and she is in need of some prayers!! When you have time read her story and if you can pray for her little boy!!

March 2,2009 The feeling black and white gives!!

I know you are probably getting tired of my beach pictures but I had time to play today and I was turning some pictures into black and white I just had to share this one!! I love how much meaning this picture has when I changed the color on it. Specially how Richard is turned and looking in my direction. I think I am going to have to frame this one.

Feb 28,2009

Is this the coolest sand sculpture. They had about 6 of them on the beach at one of our stops!! I was bummed because I didn't realize there was a shadow on the others so the pictures didn't turn out so good!! They would go by and spray them with water to keep them looking good. This is how they make a living as they always except tips.

All Dressed up for Dinner!!!

A few pictures of us dressed up for dinner!! It was fun to get all dressed up!!

Walking along the beach!!

We enjoyed a few long walks on the beach!! It was nice and peaceful!! Richard hates sand so I had to torture him a little and get his feet full of sand!! Of course the camera had to come out!!

Just the Two of Us!!

Well not the best picture but it was just the 2 of us so we had to do it on our own. This was us taking our own picture in Cabo!!

Our Trip begins!!
