This Town Ain’t Big Enough For The Two of Us

Every day at high noon there is a standoff in my front yard. There is a squirrel that believes he owns the joint! He has eaten quite a lovely hole through the lid of my trash can and stands guard over it with no fear.

Even if he is just 8" tall I find him rather intimidating!

Father's Day

Today we went to Point Defiance Park, soaked up the sun, and enjoyed the scenery.

Being that it was Father's Day this was Jeff's choice of how to spend the day.

Marcus had never felt sand before and he really enjoyed it.

Jayelyn liked stepping into the COLD water, but for the most part

she just took it all in.

Landon - of course - had to throw rocks. He also got some new

marbles so those occupied him for a long time as well.

I was ecstatic to play with my camera and sit in the sun!!!!

It was a great day!

Mom Why Aren't You Paying Attention?

So I thought that while I was on the computer both of my children were sitting behind me watching a cartoon and having a snack. I turned around to find that Jayelyn had disappeared.

No worries, I located her giving herself a nice butter treatment. She is so soft now.

Better not take her into the sun for awhile, she might burn :P

Improvement

I like how this one has the parts he blew off in focus too.
It looks fisheyed, but that just his chubby face too close to my lense.
I love her whispy hairs

Commit to God

The Amplified Bible pictures us committing our load to God b y rolling it onto Him. It is helpful to note that we can roll something that is too heavy to carry or to cast.

What are we to commit – to trust – to God?

Ourselves. Psalm 22:8:

He trusts in the Lord;

let the Lord rescue him.

Let him deliver him, since he delights in him.

Our Burden. Psalm 55:22:

Cast your cares on the Lord

and he will sustain you;

he will never let the righteous fall.

Our Souls. 1 Peter 4:19

So the, those who suffer according to God's will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.

Our Way. Psalm 37:5:

Commit your way to the Lord;

trust in him.

Our Cause. 1 Peter 2:23:

When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.

Our Works. Proverbs 16:3:

Commit to the Lord whatever you do,

and your plans will succeed.
