The Pryde Family

This is the Pryde family.
We had the opportunity this past weekend to host the Prydes for a visit to our church. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with them. I am so thankful for how the Lord placed them in our lives.

Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.
Psalm 75:1

Luke

Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.
Philippians 4:4

The First Snow of the Season!

Tulsa had it's first snow of the season last night!
Even though we only got 1-2 inches, we had a lot of fun taking pictures and playing in the snow.

These two are pictures that I took last night while it was still snowing.

Psalm 111:2

Lemon

It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises to thy name, O most High:
Psalm 92:1

I have been wanting to post more often on my blog, so I have challenged myself to take at least one picture each day and post it along with a verse of scripture. So, even though it is already the 9th of January, I am starting today.
Here is my first picture. Enjoy!
And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by Him.
Colossians 3:17

Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Thanksgiving and Praise

Let us praise the Lord together with thanksgiving

For the blessings we have known,
For the mercy He has shown.
Let us praise the Lord together with thanksgiving.

Let us thank the Lord for Jesus and salvation,
For his death on Calvary
From our sin to set us free.
Let us thank the Lord for Jesus and salvation.

Let us thank the Lord for daily bread and shelter,
For His faithful loving care,
For the home He will prepare.
Let us thank the Lord for daily bread and shelter.

Let us worship God in prayerful adoration.
Praise and honor now we bring
As we crown him Lord and King.
Let us worship God in prayerful adoration.

Let us shout and sing a mighty "Hallelujah"!
Grateful voices now we raise
In a sacrifice of praise.
Let us shout and sing a mighty "Hallelujah"!




Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks:
for that thy name is near thy wonderous works declare.
Psalm 75:1


Happy Thanksgiving!

Our Family Camping Trip

These are some pictures from our family camping trip to Petit Jean, Arkansas. We really enjoyed all of the hiking, biking, fishing, and just enjoying each other.

It was beautiful!

All of the trees were really pretty.

All of the boys loved climbing on the boulders.

This one was my picture for Lens Love.

I have a lot more pictures from this trip that I will post soon.

Have a wonderful week!

I am really excited about...

Ten photography lovers have joined together to start Lens Love, a website where these photographers will share their pictures and perspectives on photography. There will be a picture posted each day by a different person. The first time around will be an introduction. We just started this past week, so the introductions are going on right now. Go check it out if you would like. I hope that you enjoy it! :)

Hello!

Our garden didn't produce much this year. We were able to get onions, potatoes, yellow squash, strawberries, some yellow pear tomatoes, and a couple of jalapeno peppers before it died. We really enjoyed what we had of everything. Here are a few pictures that I did take.

I received some patterns for stuffed elephants, shoulder bags, and hand bags a while back.
I really enjoy trying out new patterns, so this was a lot of fun for me.
I want to make myself a bag, but I am thinking about changing the pattern a little.
Here are some pictures.

These were my first two elephants.

This is the hand bag.

These are the shoulder bags.

More elephants!:)

I will be starting some new projects in the next couple of weeks and will post pictures.
Goodbye for now.
