Our 50th Wedding Anniversary.

Here is a picture of our 50th Anniversary, with our five daughters..The girls/husbands gave us a wonderful luau..
It is hard to believe 50 years have gone by..and when I look at the girls..I can't believe it.
They are our greatest achievement on earth..and never have we been prouder. And may I say..they all married wonderful men, that we love very much...not to forget our 10 grandchildren..We have been blessed...

Easter Lily Returns.

Was so surprised to see this Lily blooming on the side of the house. The grass was growing up and needed cutting..but up pops this beautiful Lily.
Then I remembered, one of my daughters bought me a Lily for Easter and I was told to cut it down, after the bloom dies and plant it..Well, what a shock, for there it is, and in September.
These little happy surprises in life are what keep us going.
I was always told, life can be very upsetting today, but just wait a minute..it can change in a blink..


Till next time, keep looking up.

New Beginnings.

What a way to start the day. The pictures don't give the sunrise justice...It was beyond beautiful.

I have been so busy, this month has gotten away from me. Here we are the end of September, oh my.
Then I take a look at this morning sky and feel the love of God surround me..It was breath taking.
Just think what I would have missed, if I didn't take a peek out the window..Isn't that the way with life?

Till next time, keep looking up.

9/11..A Tribute

This is a day I will never forget..Being from Long Island, New York..I live this tragedy every year.

The picture of Fr. Mychal always leaves a pain in my heart..he was considered the first victim of the Twin Towers..He was killed by falling debris while giving Last Rites to a victim.
9/11 is burned into everyone's soul..caused by hate..a hate I will never understand. A hate perpetrated on innocent victims, going to work/taking a tour/visiting the Twin Towers.
May God Bless America.

There is an article on American Thinker today by Lloyd Marcas about the Jumpers from the Twin Towers and how they are forgotten..Dear God, what brave people they were. Think about it.??? God Bless each and every one of them..

Till next time, keep looking up.

What a happy beginning to this day..a beautiful rainbow in the back yard..It was a surprise, since they never are in the back yard.
I had fun with the panoramic shot..it is three of the same in one. You have to click on it. It didn't come out that great, but a fun experiment.
Again, I am so thankful for the beauty God sends us..The thing is..I sometimes forget about it, I am so busy with life..and then something so beautiful appears and keeps me humble..

Field Day At Oldest/Son-In-Law's Home.

Our Oldest Daughter/Son-in-law have what we call  Field Day, every Labor Day weekend. They go all out for it. It is loaded with games/prizes/food/drink..Just a wonderful time to get together. Even the neighbors join in.
It thrills my husband and I just to see all the fun they have and I might say..We joined in a few games too.
They play the Olympic song and have a podium and give medals for the winners..Gold/Silver/Bronze..
You know, the simple things in life are so much fun..The kids don't need their computers/Ipods and what ever other gadgets there are..to enjoy life..but we all know what is important..Love/Respect for one another..Thank you God for the Blessing of Our Five Daughters, who in turn with their wonderful Husbands are passing down Your Blessings to our 10 grandchildren.. because they know what is important in this life.

Till next time, keep looking up.
