30 Day Photo Challenge: YOUR SKY

Such a sweet sky.  I wonder who it was for.

Do you ever pine for that kind of impulsive, extravagant, sold-out kind of love?  The kind that spills over you with such emotion you want to scream it from a mountain top or write in the sky – so the whole world will know.

I LOVE this sky.  I wonder who wrote it.

And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Day 7:  Favorite

What more do I need to say?!

This is Gidget.  She is without a doubt the best dog in the world.

I really mean that.  Not exaggerating.  Won’t even get into counting the ways, too many.  She is simply the best!

Day 6: Makes You Smile

This is my husband on the right.  With his friend, Jay, on the left.  Wearing the same shirt.  At Disney World.  Dancing.  In the street.

Note:  The children are no where to be found – hiding in embarrassment.

My friend, Beth and I, we loved it.  It still makes me smile… and tear up.

Shortly after this visit, Jay discovered he had an aggressive, B-cell lymphoma.  His treatment is equally aggressive chemo – 6 rounds followed by a bone marrow transplant.

Mark took a trip to visit Jay and encourage him in between treatments.  I sent him with specific instructions to be a help and do some chores around the house for Beth.

This is definitely a posed shot.  My guess is they were just goofing around as usual but trying to prove to me that Mark was helping out around the house.

It makes me smile to know my husband can be “a friend who loves at all times, and a brother in times of adversity.”

And it makes Jay smile, too.

Day 5: Something You Wore

Remember my post about finding my wedding dress all sealed and safe when the house flooded?  Shortly after that post my childhood friend and bridesmaid came to visit for the weekend.  Another bridesmaid came over for dinner and well, the dress was too much of a temptation.

We cracked the 23 year old seal.

It took both of them to get it zipped.  I couldn’t breath.

But, I wore it then and I can wear it now  -  for a limited time.
