Images from the Blessed

They say that confession is good for the soul, and if that is the case, I should feel good after this post. I must admit my first draft started out as a gripe session. I was going to complain about how busy our lives are and how much of the summer we seem to be missing. After typing, deleting, typing, browsing pictures, and typing again, I have arrived at a much different point of view. At times all of us need a check from the Lord concerning our attitudes, and today was my turn!

The last few days, we have all seen images from Iran and plane crashes, heard depressing predictions and threats, and listened to weak leaders that have no clue. We could all have a reason to just sit down and sigh, because is there anything good under the sun? I really believe there is good, and we find it everyday in our life in a little town in the South!

Here are the images from the Blessed.................

"In the jungle, the might jungle, Ricky swims today.............."

Wet beach towels on the line!

Homemade tent and a good movie!

Playing at Peppermint Park.


Chilling poolside!


Hey, do I see Cher?

What in the world?
P.S.--I in no way mean to discredit the severity or seriousness of current events through this post! I am concerned and prayerful for all those involved!

But this is how we stay sane in the face of all that is going wrong in life. I love the post. :-)
