BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE

October 12, 2008
I love this time of year when the weather is beginning to change and there is a glimmer of hope for some cooler weather for us here in Texas. There is a sharpness in the early morning air and a freshness that is new. It is almost like the trees and the animals are as happy as I am about the prospect of Fall just around the corner.
I was up before dawn the other day (a magical time) and I saw the glow of orange on the horizon hinting that the sun was hidden somewhere under this glowing canopy. This magnificent orange glow turned to vivid, swirling, flourescent colors of orange, pink and yellow just before the glow suddenly focused into the edge of a burning orange ball and just before the sun made its appearance, a ray of light shot straight upwards towards the heavens and then widened as a fierce burning ball peeked over the horizon. It was one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen. I am adding some photos I took of this to my photo rotations, so maybe you will get to see it! It made me want to burst into singing “How Majestic is your Name in all the Earth”!
I hope you are all enjoying the Fall and preparing for the holiday days ahead.
All of our babies are gone now, except for Blaze. We don’t expect to have him long, but we are enjoying him while we can. He is at such a fun age now.
Our beautiful girl Emma is pregnant and we are looking forward to some beautiful babies from her. She is due Oct. 30th, so keep checking back and we will keep you posted on her progress.
