O Happy Day

It's been a wonderful, full week! 

One of the highlights was on Wednesday when we celebrated

Abby's birthday.....

I know some of you don't believe me when I say we DO

have sunny days in the winter......

This was a glorious one. Just look at those rays!!!

We headed North to a park on the water,

and stopped for a cold picnic before continuing on up

to Num Num and Papa's. 

 I've learned that clear skies mean its going to be chilly! 

BUT, compared to the cold in a lot of the country,

40s and 50s is NOT bad! 

The girls were all smiles, especially the newly turned eight year old. 

Love it when they love on each other, and WANT to play together. 

The mood at the park was so pleasant and cheerful!! 

(Guess a little sun will do that to ya!)

 Abby was having so much fun,

she couldn't bring herself to stop and eat
until we were back in the car! 

 I love Aspen trees....
(I think that is what these were:)

Isn't the bark beautiful?

 Even Jessie got in on the fun. 

She LOVES going places with us,
and is such a good little puppy when we travel! 

"Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice;

let the sea roar, and all that fills it;

let the field exult, and everything in it!

Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for joy

before the LORD, for he comes,

for he comes to judge the earth.

He will judge the world in righteousness,

and the peoples in his faithfulness. "

Psalm 96:11

May your Lord's Day, dear friends, be a happy one~

filled with gladness and rejoicing

as you marvel at your Creator and what He has made for you!!!
