Random Stuff {This or That Thursday}

The other day I was cleaning up my desktop and found about a million folders marked “New Folder” {Why do I name them that? Can’t I be just a little bit more original? Descriptive even?} and inside of them were a couple hundred unedited photographs. These are just a few of them… These buildings overlook…

He is the Light {Word Filled Wednesday}

Last week, the hubs, Miss 15 and I were driving into town when the hubs pulled over and said “You have got to get a picture of that sky!” It was the most spectacular looking thing we’d seen in just about forever. As I snapped away, I kept telling him, “I can’t quite capture the…

Peacocks. In a Cemetery. Really? {This or That Thursday}

When Miss 15 told me that she’d gone with some friends to visit the peacocks at the Cape County Memorial Park, I was tad skeeved, slightly intrigued and a little bewildered. Peacocks. In a cemetery. Really? Yes, really. Also, I hope y’all are impressed with me right now considering my intense fear of birds. I…

He Gave Me Life {Faith}

Sometimes I think what my mirror sees and what my camera sees are two different people. My reflection is always young and smiling, full of energy and ready to take on the day. My photographic image is about 30 lbs overweight with the slightest hint of crows feet forming in the corners of my eyes.…

Hanging with Miss 18 {This or That Thursday}

Earlier this week, Miss 18 and I decided to go on a photography walk in the historic section of Cape Girardeau. You can see my pictures by clicking on the bold words.  We love it down there because of the old buildings, the views of the Mississippi River and the fabulous antique shops that line…

Coffee Love {This or That Thursday}

While taking pictures for this week’s May Photo~A~Day Challenge, I noticed something, I take a lot of pictures of coffee. This week, my obsession seemed to be coffee beans… There’s something about the smoothness of the beans… The richness of the browns… Yep, I love all the things about coffee… Collage Layout Courtesy of Ginger…

The River Walk {This or That Thursday}

Yesterday I went for a quick photo walk along the Mississippi River… Without fail, I always take a picture of the Port Cape Girardeau… It’s just a beautiful old building and that Coca~Cola {thanks, Ellie, now you know my soda preference} sign on the side is priceless… But I think my new favorite building may…

Knowing God By Name {Word Filled Wednesday}

When I was a little girl, I hated my name. I mean, I absolutely positively hated my name. People used to call me “Danielle”, “Darlene”, “Daniel”, etc. All perfectly fine names, but not my name. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I fully appreciated the uniqueness of my name and it wasn’t until…

Roses {This or That Thursday}

Evidently, I’m not very observant because I didn’t notice these beautiful roses growing on the side of my house until a few days ago. It makes me wonder how many other things go unnoticed in my home… Guess I should go figure out where I left the kids. I’m linking up with Deb of deb duty…
