Rainy Day

So today was a VERY rainy day. A perfect day to be at work indoors :) Days like this make me want to just cuddle up with a good book or finish up old projects. I was going through some stuff in my room today (my attempt to clean) and saw my drawing book. I would really like to draw more. Love the setting sun in this picture :).

"Be Still"

"Be still and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10

I love this verse. I find so much comfort in it, especially on crazy days like today. Sometimes I just feel like God just wants me to slow down for a few seconds to realize there are some things I simply cannot change, there are things that I cannot handle, things I shouldn't worry about and things that will simply happen in His timing. After that moment, the day isn't so worrisome or crazy. It's a breath of fresh air.

Lazy Day

Today ended up being a pretty lazy day, filled with catching up on things, spending time with Luke, and taking a family bike ride. Shane and mom have been re-doing the plants around the pool and getting the pool ready for the summer. And, I couldn't resist snapping a picture of the royal delphiniums. =D

Night Sky

I took this picture tonight of the stars and got the big dipper in there perfectly :). This was all after a wonderful night of dancing and icecream ;). Couldn't have been a more perfect day.

Silhouetting

Spent most of the day today at Luke's house. I've always found the dock at their house to be so relaxing. I had wanted to try a silhouette picture today but I wasn't able to get a good location for that. So I ended up just taking a picture of Luke on the dock. Though, you can't see his face too well in this picture. And, I have to say I was not feeling very creative today.
He's so handsome :)Hopefully, he doesn't ever get tired of me taking pictures of him =).

Mommy's Treasures

Mom has some of the coolest looking jewelry and heirlooms. Her stuff is from all over the world. Lots of neat, little treasures. Ever since I was a little girl I've had a fascination with her jewelry box. I always notice something different. =D

A Marble Tomb

Second day of work went quite well today and I felt a lot less overwhelmed. Got my haircut and found myself squeezing lemons when I got home to lighten my hair, which didn't work so well. Time to go for the chamomile. Then, this evening Luke and I went for a drive in Howey and took this picture. I've taken pictures here (at the Howey Mansion "tomb")before but this was the first time with my new camera. This link shows the whole thing www.flickr.com/photos/blackdoll/3779191646/
