Life happens.

She was the best part of the last three days, I think. She isn't very comfortable having her picture taken, but let me take a few. I think she's beautiful.

Day something or other....

Not holding up to my 40 days of Goodness project very well, huh? Life's been busy and there are too many days I don't even pick up my camera. Other days, like today, I take lots of pictures.

Where I am from...



I am from the trampoline, the U-Haul, and a country music song.

I am from the park.

I am from red dirt and mesquite trees.

I am from shoot from the hip and sarcasm, from Mom Morris and Mommer and Mama Nita.

I am from the honky tonk and Sunday school.

From the gypsies and gars in the water.

I am from Amazing Grace and wooden pews. From the One who is, and was, and is to come.

I'm from Archer,Young, and Wichita, Memaw's chocolate pie and fried potatoes.

From the twister in the rear view mirror, beer and football Sundays, deer stands and trot lines.

I am from the polaroids in the stacks of albums in my mother's closet.
