Beautiful experiential photography….

Look at photographer, Jesh de Rox’s site.  In addition to having a very cool name, his work is amazing and a whole experience.  When you get to the main section, click on “experiential galleries” and click on “portraits”.  His work draws you into the moment.

Attitude of Gratitude…

“To educate yourself for the feeling of gratitude means to take nothing for granted, but to always seek out and value the kind that will stand behind the action. Nothing that is done for you is a matter of course. Everything originates in a [...]

Surrender study….

We had a good study last night.  We are looking at issues of surrender and what that means in our life and what role it has in the development of faith.  Surrender is important in any relationship…..
The lesson last night was entitled, “True Greatness”  I was really drawn to the video clip which highlighted some of [...]

Paint on layout….

Experimenting with paint a la Wilna on this simple layout.  Sometimes one word summarizes all you want to say. Use one word to create an entire layout. For more ideas, there is a cute website that challenges scrapbookers to create layouts based on one word that the team chooses.  This week it is “go”….you will love the creative [...]

Happy Birthday to You….!

We had a happy birthday celebration for grandpa. He is 98 today!  I think about the things he has seen in his lifetime……amazing!  He says his 98 years are very heavy but thanks to God, he is healthy and clear thinking…..and still getting around by himself (with a little help from his trusty cane!)  Thank [...]
