392/365

Our Creator is creative!

Thankful for the creativity of  God in nature. Today Sarah and I went hiking and I enjoyed SO much all of the different colors we saw. It's funny because usually in the December months everything is brown and black, but not this year. We have had some crazy weather!

I enjoyed using my new lens from Santa to snap a few shots. Enjoy! (and these pictures are hardly edited... I love my new lens!) Here is some "color" from the day. . .

We brought Dallas along to be our "guard dog"... she barked at
EVERYTHING and NOTHING. It was bad. We need
to either take her more often so she gets used to the whole woods/hiking/other dogs thing,
or she just needs to stay at home next time. :) Oh Dallas!

Grey sky- beautiful!













Good ole' Carolina mud... red clay!
Beautiful day out in the woods! We went to Stumphouse Tunnel (again, right?!) and actually hiked a new trail we've never done. We didn't realize that there are three separate tunnels in that area that were being built as part of the transcontinental railroad, and then the projects were stopped as funding went away.  Pretty neat to find a new little "gem" in your backyard!

And if the hike isn't enough to be thankful for, tonight our sweet neighbors (who have become family to us) came over and we had a great time making homemade pizza.


Putting the toppings on our personal-size pizzas!
All ready to go in!
Sarah Lou monogrammed her pizza :)
Sarah's pizza AFTER... mmmm!


We love Lisa and Alfred!
Shout-out to the best mom EVER! She is such a cute little zebra! :)
After dinner we had to try out Elizabeth's new Wii Dance 3... and
Wii Just Dance for KIDS! What fun!
And to think Sarah and I used to babysit Elizabeth when
she was Daniel and Benton's age. Where does time go?

Precious Kathryn. (I can't stop taking pictures like this!)

Kathryn and Benton are playing with the remote control car that I gave
Benton for Christmas. He loves "whiting mckeen!"
What a day full of gifts from the Lord-- how blessed I am to be related to my best friends. Thankful.
