~Class Of 2011~

My dear brother, Tyler, will be graduating from high school next month. I am still in amazement that the time has already come for him to graduate. He has achieved so many things throughout his life thus far, and has certainly made our family very proud.

As his sister, I am so impressed by his accomplishments. Throughout the years, he has worked so diligently and gained much knowledge. Most importantly, his walk with God continues to strengthen as he has chosen to run with patience the race that is set before him, as the Lord tells us to do in Hebrews 12:1.

All in all, I feel immensely blessed to have Tyler as my brother!

The Spring Frolic

This past weekend, I was blessed to attend a local event at an old pioneer settlement. The day was filled with delightful fellowship, photography, music, and contra-dancing… Yes, ‘twas a wonderful day, indeed!

The Lord blessed us with beautiful weather, which enabled me to take lots of photographs! Enjoy…

1 John 3:1-3

DSC_1243

See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know Him.

DSC_1241

Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when He appears we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him as He is.

And everyone who thus hopes in Him purifies himself as He is pure.”
