Spring is here with its many faces. Here are just a few I happened to capture.
A Fiery Dawn
Another Red Sunrise
Beautiful Sight
These were taken on two different mornings, the most beautiful sky I have ever seen.
I had to share with everyone! Since I have been traveling to the next city 5 days a week, I have captured some amazing photos.
- Our Christmas Parade
-
- Local Cowboys
My Family and I endured the cold to watch the Christmas parade. It was worth it because we had such a good time. A lot of thought went into the floats, most of which are done by students. I am sorry the pictures are not focused, I didn’t have the setting right on my camera. Merry Christmas to all and may you embrace and enjoy the holidays with your loved ones.
Purple Haze
Beautiful Winter
God's Night Light
A Lavender Field
Moon & Star on Earth
Our Troops Past and Present
Let’s take a moment to remember the people who protect our freedom. Some of these pictures were sent to me in an email titled “Heaven on Earth.” The beauty we all take for granted sometimes is part of what our heroes fight for every day. Thanks to our veterans and military, we have the freedom to see our families, enjoy our friends, and watch our children grow. So I thought it would be nice to say thanks to all of the people who have served, fought, and/or died for our country… Thank you for all your sacrifices.
Did I say grounded?
And your sure it comes off??
You really think I should be a duck?
I am thinking X-Y(p/w)+Z(N)=Lots of candy
Feeling a little grumpy dear?
Gearing up for Halloween, every year our town hosts “Monsters on Mainstreet.” It is very safe and fun for all. Some may say we like to get into character a little early but most of the time this is normal. Hope you all have a great and safe Halloween!
If you want to be a parent… Be one.
Don’t talk about it, don’t blog about it, don’t argue or complain about it. Just be there and be a good parent. It starts with putting yourself after your children no matter how your day or week is going. Once you bring a child into the world you lose your right to “Me first.” No matter how many problems you have, a parent never gets time off from their children’s needs. And they always need love.
And if your child states that they are trying to make you see what you are missing. Maybe you should actually listen because maybe your child is feeling like they are not a part of your life.
Again, if you want to be a parent… Be one. Take responsibility for your actions with your children. They don’t stay children long, time is precious and always moving forward. Make memories not regrets.
Bitter are the tears of a child: Sweeten them.
Deep are the thoughts of a child: Quiet them.
Sharp is the grief of a child: Take it from him.
Soft is the heart of a child: Do not harden it.
I didn’t realize how beautiful the sun rise, clouds, and fog could be so early in the morning, now I look forward to the graceful scenery that adorns my commute to work. These were taken three different mornings and I just had to share even though they were taken with my cell. I am planning on taking better pictures of this area soon.
A member of the band?
Lol-This was too funny
These were taken going to or in Branson Mo. on vacation. Some were taken at Ripley’s Believe It or Not, some where taken in town on the strip.
1) This photograph was taken at Ripley’s, the statue was made from any and everything.
2) This is a drawing of a skull but can you see the images within it?
3) This is simply a genuine tribe member’s head from long ago and yet still a great conversation piece.
4) This was taken on the scenic route to Branson, we thought it was too funny.
We went to many places that I couldn’t take my camera so I didn’t get many pictures. So these are some that I thought were interesting. Hope you enjoy.
Receeding waters of local lake
Hwy 64 flooded field
Overcup Lake
Hwy 64 in Conway Ar.
The creek
When the hurricane rains our town the rain was relentless. The rain stayed with us for a few days causing some flooding. Little Rock and other parts of Arkansas was hit very hard, our town was lucky. I know other states are still recovering. We had a camping trip that was cancelled, then uncancelled, and finally cancelled on the day of due to the dam being opened to help the water to receed back to normal range. We were disappointed but with the waters moving so fast we couldn’t fish or anything. We are going to try again before it gets too cold. These pictures were taken the day after the hurricane left Arkansas, some of which are beautiful.

Taking a break on the sidelines
Game over:Won by a touchdown!
This is our son Jamie AKA 8th grade Devil Pup #60. This was his first game and he was great. I love watching him play. This game was not the scheduled first game because it was cancelled due to rain last week. This day was perfect and Jamie shined on the field. I know he is my son but he was wonderful just the same!!! Had to share my excitement with you all. GO PUPS !!!
