Beauty Regardless of Rush

Hello all!

So, the last time I did a walk to take pictures was back in the middle of winter after the first serious snow storm. Now, when I was back in University during my first year, I would take regular walks and take pictures. Now that I've graduated and got married, things seemed to have kicked into high gear, and it's not often that I'm able to just have a day where I don't feel like I need to rush about. Yes there are still things that I need to do but I don't feel like they have to get done now, I can wait a moment or two between tasks. So this morning, after I had finished reading yet another book, I decided that before I ate breakfast that I would go out on this beautiful spring day and take some pictures.

Now It's warm enough to be Summer, and it's the last day of May, but it's still spring so Spring pictures it was. To start off this little gallery, I decided that I would take some pictures of our two dogs, Gandalf and Rhya. Amazingly enough, it was the easiest time I had ever had taking pictures of these two pups. Now, just to note, these two dogs are inseparable. At one point about a year or two ago, I took Gandalf out to take his picture. I just went to the back yard, not that far at all. Apparently, according to my hubby, Rhya had sat at the top of the stairs whimpering the entire time. These two really are a pair. So without further ado...

They love to investigate everything and anything is suspicious
Rhya has to be one of the laziest active dogs that I know.
She loves to play but most times she just wants to cuddle.

Gandalf is by far the most playful pup of the two.
 He loves to run, and would run himself to death if we let him.

These two really are the best of friends and love being together.

Ok, now that the cute pups are done, I decided to head out on the short walk. Now I usually like the pictures to tell some sort of story, so I hope you enjoy the journey...


Life always starts, from a tiny seed, and no
matter how far we roam, we always find our way home.
And with the sun's help, we will grow like the wild flowers
it's light gazing down on us through the shower.
There are always bends in the road, during our travels,
and sometimes the bend doesn't seem to have an end.
But if we just keep on walking, and trusting in our Lord,
just maybe we'll find our way down the road.
Though sometimes we don't have a clear view of the sky,
the sun will always be there, even in a sigh.
So every so often, w just need to stop

And take some time to play
And lift our faces towards the rays

So whether your blessing seem large
 
Or just very small
 
Your road very flat
 
Or so bumpy you'll fall
 
Whether your life is a clean cut lawn
 
or just a mess of weeds
 
Look up you'll still see the sky

And you'll still grow, by and by
